what is an equation in point slope form of the line that passes through (-5, -4) and has a slope of 3

Hi there! The point-slope is shown in the picture.

Both x1 and y1 are the ordered pairs or coordinate points. Not to be confused with the x and y, they are just for to form an equation of a line.

As we know, m is defined as slope.

What we have now are:

Substitute the value of the point and slope in the equation.

Answer

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
