Serga [27]2 years ago
6 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the factors

(x - 1)(x + 1)(x + 3)

( {x}^{2}  - 1)(x + 3)

{x}^{3}   + 3 {x}^{2}  - x - 3

The highest exponent is 3, so the degree is 3

Solve for u.<br><br> 3u − 5 = 4
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

u=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 5 to both sides of the equation. That cancels out 5 on the right and gives you 9 on the left. Now divide 3 from both sides and you get 3.

Their sum is −7 and their difference is 14 what are my numbers
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Answer: 3 1/2 and -10 1/2 are the two numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be the two unknown numbers.

x+y=-7 [Given]

x-y=14 [Given]

x-y=14 [Given]

x=y+14 [Add y to both sides]

x+y=-7 [Given]

(y+14)+y=-7 [Subtitution]

2y+14=-7 [Combine like terms]

2y=-21 [Subtract 14 from both sides]

y=-21/2 [Divide both sides by 2]

y=-10 1/2 [Division]

x-y=14 [Given]

x=y+14 [Add y to both sides]

x=-10 1/2 + 14 [Substitution]

x= 3 1/2 [Addition]

Check:

x+y=-7 [Given]

3 1/2 + -10 1/2?=-7 [Substition]

-7=-7 [Addition]

QED

x-y=14 [Given]

3 1/2 - -10 1/2?=14 [Substitution]

3 1/2 + 10 1/2?=14 [Change the sign of the subtrahend and add]

14=14 [Addition]

QED

Answer: 3 1/2 and -10 1/2 are the two numbers.

The graph of a linear function has a slope of 1/4 and passes through the point (1,3). What is the y-intercept of the function?
Vikki [24]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

In slope intercept form, y = mx + b, the m is the slope, the b is the y intercept, and x and y can be subbed in from the point you are given of (1, 3).  We are told the slope, so everything we have fills in like this:

3=\frac{1}{4}(1)+b

Now we just need to solve for b:

3-\frac{1}{4}=b and

\frac{12}{4}-\frac{1}{4}=b so

b=\frac{11}{4}
