What is the quotient of m^6/5 ÷ 5/m^2? assume m does not equal pl

Suppose g(x) = f(x + 3) + 4. which statement best compares the graph of g(x) with the graph of f(x)?

Choose the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (2, 4) and has a slope of 3. a) y − 4 = 3(x − 2) b) y − 2 = 3(x − 4) c) y + 4 = 3(x + 2) d) y + 2 = 3(x + 4)
