A line passes through the point (8. -8) and has a slope of 5/4
Write an equation in slope-intercept form for this line.

y = 5/4x - 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope, intercept form of a straight line is;

y = bx + c

Where, y = slope, given as 5/4

(x, y) is given as ; (8, - 8)

Hence, we need to obtain the value of c, which is the intercept.

x = 8 ; y = - 8

-8 = 5/4x + c

-8 = 5/4(8) + c

-8 = 10 + c

-8 - 10 = c

-18 = c

Hence, equation becomes ;

y = 5/4x - 18

arithmetic sequence

step-by-step explanation:

given that a sequence has terms as

19, 15, 11,

this is represented on a graph

the pattern indicates that the sequence is an arithmetic sequence with i term

a=19 and common difference d =-4

any general term

thus the sequence is reduced by 4 for each successive term starting from 1 and nth term is

24-5n.

first negative term would start after 5th term

5th term =24-25< 0

from 5th term onwards the sequence would be negative.
