Answer:
4. 4c
Step-by-step explanation:
hope this helps
First, x intercepts are (-1,0) and (-3,0). y intercept is(0,2)
second, left side is a function because there are no x-values paired with two different y-values. right side is not a function because the x-value 3 is paired with two different y-values values
third, slope is ride over run, or the difference in y values divided by difference in x values. slope is 1/2. intercept is at (0,2). the equation is then y=1/2*x + 2
Answer: its either 6/10 or 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
==>(x+3) = 16
==> x + 3 = 16
make x the subject of formula
=> x = 16 - 3
subtract 3 from 16
=> x = 13
Answer:
a = -2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for a over the real numbers:
(3 a + 2) (4 a^2 - 2 a + 9) = 0
Split into two equations:
3 a + 2 = 0 or 4 a^2 - 2 a + 9 = 0
Subtract 2 from both sides:
3 a = -2 or 4 a^2 - 2 a + 9 = 0
Divide both sides by 3:
a = -2/3 or 4 a^2 - 2 a + 9 = 0
Divide both sides by 4:
a = -2/3 or a^2 - a/2 + 9/4 = 0
Subtract 9/4 from both sides:
a = -2/3 or a^2 - a/2 = -9/4
Add 1/16 to both sides:
a = -2/3 or a^2 - a/2 + 1/16 = -35/16
Write the left hand side as a square:
a = -2/3 or (a - 1/4)^2 = -35/16
(a - 1/4)^2 = -35/16 has no solution since for all a on the real line, (a - 1/4)^2 >=0 and -35/16<0:
Answer: a = -2/3
