Hello can anyone give me the step by step answer?

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m =

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 8, - 42 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 3, - 17 ) ← 2 ordered pairs from the table

m = = = = 5

The line crosses the y- intercept at (0, - 2 ) , then

y = 5x - 2 → C

C. y=5x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the numbers in the x column in the x of the equation and do the same for y. Solve, and if both sides are equal, the equation is correct.

You can use any set of x and y and try each equation till you find the right one. (0,-2) would be the easiest, because you can just make x=0, but you have to test the correct equations again with a different set after. {I used (-8,-42).}

answer: slight chance that it will happen

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is:

the correct option:

b.

to solve the problem, we need to remember how to operate to simplify exponential expressions using the logarithms.

we are given the equation:

then, using placing logarith with base 7 on both sides of the equation, we have:

so, rounding the obtained result to two decimal places (nearest hundreth), we have:

hence, we have that the correct option:

b.

have a nice day!
