Find the solution of y = 4x + 2 for x = -5. A.
(-5, -18)

B.
(-5, 22)

C.
(-18, -5)

THE ANSWER WOULD BE A. (-5, -18)

Notice how y=4x%2B2 is in slope-intercept form y=mx%2Bb where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

So this shows us that the slope is m=4 and the y-intercept is b=2 which is the point (0,2)

You can always plot an equation like this to find intercepts

and slope. Each point requires an x and a y. My

way is to make x+=+0 and find y,

then I make y+=+0 and find x

y+=+4x+%2B+2

y+=+4%2A0+%2B+2 solve for y

y+=+2

the point is (0,2)

then,

0+=+4x+%2B+2 solve for x

subtract 2 from both sides

4x+=+-2

x+=+-%281%2F2%29

the point is (-%281%2F2%29,0)  

Once you have any two points, you can draw the line by connecting them

When the equation is in the form

y+=+mx+%2B+b

m = slope

b = y-intercept

So, your equation y+=+4x+%2B+2

m+=+4 (slope)

b+=+2 (y-intercept)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.

False

Step-by-step explanation:

This is false. If you compare the length of the sides, for example, the bottom side, you can see that the blue trapezoid's bottom most side length is 3 while the red one is 6, so the blue quadrilateral is dilated by a factor of 6/3 = 2. This is not equal to the value of 3/2 given in the question, so this statement is false.
