which equation is the point-slope equation of the line that passes through the points (-2,-1) and (7,-4)?

B (for question 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we use the equation .

m = (-4+1)/(7+2) = -3/9 = -1/3

Since B is the only option that would give a slope of -1/3, B must be the answer.

(you can use this same method for question 8)

answer: bea's uncle is 25 years old.

step-by-step explanation:

given the equation , we can say that the variable "x" represents the age of bea's uncle. then to find his age, we need to solve for "x":

we must add 15 to both sides of the equation:

now we need to divide both sides of the equation by 3:

therefore, we can conclude that bea's uncle is 25 years old.
