Find the equation of the line specified. The line passes through the points (-2, 3) and (-4, 7) a. y = -2x - 1 b. y = -2x + 3 c. y = -4x - 1 d. y = -2x + 7 Please select the best answer from the choices provided A B C D.

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we will first use the slope formula to find the slope of the line. Given 2 points, you can't do anything else BUT find the slope. Always start there. The slope formula is:

Plugging in our values from the points where y2 is 7, y1 is 3, x2 is -4 and x1 is -2:

So the slope is -2. Now we will pick either point and use the x and y coordinates to fill in the point-slope form of a line, which is:

where y1 and x1 are the coordinates from the point we pick, and m is the slope we just solved for. It doesn't matter which point you pick to use as your x and y coordinates; either one will give you the exact same equation...PROMISE!!

I chose (-2, 3), no reason in particular. x1 is -2 and y1 is 3:

which simplifies a bit to

y - 3 = -2(x + 2) and a bit more to

y - 3 = -2x - 4 and even more to

y = -2x - 4 + 3 and finally to our final line in slope-intercept form:

y = -2x - 1

Choice a.

42%

step-by-step explanation:

we know,

total people = 60

total males = 25

percentage of males

= 25/60 × 100

= 25/6 × 10

= 25/3 × 5

= 125 / 3

= 41.

rounding of = 42%
