Write a function for the line with a slope of −14 that passes through the point (4, 5)

y = -14x + 61

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

First, we can find the slope by reading the question and plugging in the slope of -14 into a slope-intercept formula.

y = (-14)x + b

Now, we need to find the "b" value. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that passes through the the point (4,5). Plug in 4 into the x value and 5 into the y value, and solve for b.

5 = (-14)(4) + b

(Flip the equation, so we can solve for b.)

b = 5 - (-14) (4)

(Multiply.)

b = 5 - -56

(Substitute the double minus for a plus sign and add.)

b = 5 + 56

b = 61

Now, plug in your "b" value into our original equation.

FINAL ANSWER:

y = -14x + 61

the ratio of balloons to tables is 5: 2 and the constant variation is 5.

the equation is y=5x

for a it would be 24 children.

for b i don't understand the question. is it saying for each individual person they pick 5 reds to 7 greens or is it the whole group. clarify and i hope this can you.
