Answer:

y=-1/4x-1

How to find the slope

To find the slope of the line you need to do the change in y/change in x. This is also known as the rise/run. To do this you count the spaces in between the two points.

In this graph the change in y (rise) is 2. The change in x (run) is 8. Since the line is going down they are negative. The rise/run is -2/8. This can be simplified to -1/4.

Slope: -1/4x

How to find the y-intercept

To find the y-intercept, you need to look at where the line crosses y.

In this graph the line crosses y at -1.

Y-intercept: -1

Final equation: -1/4x-1

I recommend that you download photomath, it is an app that takes a photo of the equation and answers it most of the time.

Find the factored form of 4x3 – 8x2 – 12x

seraphim [82]

4 x³ - 8 x² - 12 x =
= 4 x ( x² - 2 x - 3 ) =
= 4 x ( x² - 3 x + x - 3 ) =
= 4 x ( x ( x - 3 ) + ( x - 3 ) ) =
= 4 x ( x - 3 ) ( x + 1 ) ( the factored form )

Solve for x: 5x + 4z = 10z - 2x

Digiron [165]

Answer:

x= 6/7z

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 4z = 10z - 2x

5x + 2x = 10z - 4z

7x = 6z

x = 6/7z

What is the slope of the line shown in the graph?

n200080 [17]

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{1}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{1-2}{0-(-2)}\implies \cfrac{1-2}{0+2}\implies -\cfrac{1}{2}$
