Answer:
y = - 5x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing to do (always) is pay attention to x =0. That at least gives you a partial answer. y = y' - 1. when you put 0 in for whatever y' is you get 0. What about the other numbers? How did they come about.
We have another clue. Whenever you put in a positive number for x, you get a negative answer for y. That's interesting. So y' has a minus sign associated with it.
y = -ax - 1 Make a>0 so there is only 1 minus sign. x cannot have an even power, because an even power would make everything positive except the -1.
So we'll start with y= - ax - 1 We'll also make the assumption that a = 1
y = - x - 1 That won't work. a >1 otherwise x = 2 won't give - 11
y = -ax - 1
let x = 2
let y = - 11 Solve for a
y = - ax - 1
- 11 = -a*-2 - 1 add 1 to both sides
-11 + 1 = - a(-2) - 1 + 1
- 10 = -2a Divide by - 2
- 10/-2 = -2a/-2
a = 5
Answer: y = - 5x - 1
Answer:
Nearest cent- $1.43
Step-by-step explanation:
14.25x0.10=1.425
72 square centimeters because
<span>(12×10)−(8×6)</span>
<span>120−48</span>
<span>72</span>
<span>X/x+2 = 4/5
5x = 4x + 8
5x - 4x = 8
x= 8
</span>
First you want to write 7x as a sum or difference: 15x-8x
Now, the expression would look like this: 10x^2+15x-8x-12
Next, factor out the 5x and -4 from the expression: 5x(2x+3)-4(2x+3)
Now, factor out the 2x+3 from the expression and you have your answer:
(2x+3)(5x-4)
