Question 414219: Write an equation in standard form of the line passing through (2,-5) and (-4,7) Thanks. Please answer ASAP for I have a test on monday.
I have tried doing the first y minus second y over first x minus second x to find the slope. I got -2. Then I plugged it in to the slope intercept form. Y =mx +b I plugged in one ordered pair and got the y intercept is equal to -1. I got -2x + y = -1 but the textbook said that the answer was 2x +y =-1

Question 415423: I need help with figuring out how to work these types of problems. Step by step. For example, here are two examples of problems I need help understanding how to work.
Solve - -2(-1-3y)=7y
solve 7(6=w)=6(2+w)
I know the goal is to get the variable by itself but I am confused. Please advise. Thanks!

Question 417859: I have a word problem that I am not sure how to put into an algebraic equation(s):
Peter can buy a high-efficiency furnace for $2250 that costs $412 per year to operate. He may also buy a standard furnace for $1710 that costs $466 per year to operate. Find how long it will take for the two furnaces to have the same cost. If Peter intends to live in his house for 7 years which furnace should he buy? What if he wants to live in his house for 20 years?
My instructor did not cover any word problems even close to this one, so if anyone could help me with this I would appreciate it. It is due Tuesday.
