What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (0, -2) and (−5,4)? Put your answer in fully reduced form.

The equation of the line is  y =   x - 2 OR  6x + 5y = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the linear equation is y = m x + b, where

The rule of the slope of a line is

→ Let us solve the question

∵ The line passes the points (0, -2) and R (-5, 4)

∴ x1 = 0 and y1 = -2

∴ x2 = -5 and y2 = 4

→ Substitute them in the rule of the slope above to find it

∵ m =

∴ m =

Substitute it in the form of the equation above

∴ y =   x + b

∵ b is the y-intercept (value y at x = 0)

∵ At x = 0, y = -2

∴ b = -2

→ Substitute it in the equation

∴ y =   x + (-2)

→ Remember (+)(-) = (-)

∴ y =   x - 2

→ Multiply both side by 5 to cancel the denominator of the fraction

∴ 5y = -6x - 10

→ Add 6x to both sides

∴ 6x + 5y = -6x + 6x - 10

∴ 6x + 5y = -10

∴ The equation of the line is y =   x - 2 OR 6x + 5y = -10

all group life insurance is term insurance. actually it is annual renewable term and it is rated on the average age and claims experience of the entire group, which is called "experience rating." remember, this type of insurance has a 31-day grace period and is convertible to whole life upon leaving employment. a contributory group plan requires that both the employer and the employees pay part of the premium. at least 75% of those eligible must participate, so the group is sure to get most of the healthy employees as well as those that are sick.
