What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y-6 = 5(x - 2)?

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for slope-intercept form is y=mx+b

In order to solve this problem, we can just solve the equation to find y.

y - 6 = 5(x - 2)

Distribute 5 to (x - 2)

y - 6 = 5x - 10

Add 6 to both sides of the equation.

y = 5x - 4

So, the slope of the line is 5.

a4 - 3a2 - 1

step-by-step explanation:

step   1   :

equation at the end of step   1   :

  ((a4) -   3a2) -   1

step   2   :

trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.1     factoring   a4-3a2-1  

the first term is,   a4   its coefficient is   1 .

the middle term is,   -3a2   its coefficient is   -3 .

the last term, "the constant", is   -1  

it 2

step-by-step explanation:

8^1/3=2
