Write the point slope form of an equation of the line through the points (-2,-3) and (-7,4) answer

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 7, 4)

m = = = -

We can use either of the 2 points for (a, b)

Using (a, b) = (- 7, 4), then

y - 4 = -(x - (- 7)), that is

y - 4 = - (x + 7) ← in point- slope form

2^y = ln 5, or   y(ln 2) = ln 5.   solving for y,   y = (ln 5) / (ln 2).   y=5

step-by-step explanation:

for ex: the reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3. it is the opposite.

reciprocal definition:

a mathematical expression or function so related to another that their product is one; the quantity obtained by dividing the number one by a given quantity.
