Answer:

x = -1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x

9-17x-5-4x=7

Combine like terms

-21x +4 = 7

Subtract 4 from each side

-21x-4+4 = 7-4

-21x = 3

Divide each side by -21

-21x/-21 = 3/-21

x = -1/7

Check

9 - 17(-1/7) -5 -4(-1/7) =7

9 + 17/7 -5 + 4/7 =7

4 +21/7 = 7

4+3 = 7

7=7

What is the slope of (3,5) and (1,3)

Maksim231197 [3]

(3,5)....x1 = 3 and y1 = 5
(1,3)....x2 = 1 and y2 = 3

slope formula : (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope = (3 - 5) / (1 - 3) = -2/-2 = 1 <== slope is 1

Find the domain of f(x) = Square 3 x + 8

vagabundo [1.1K]

The question is a bit ambiguous: you may mean

$\sqrt{3x+8}$

$\sqrt{3x}+8$

Anyway, in both cases, the domain of a function involving a square root is found by imposing the content of the root to be greateer than or equal to zero. So, in the first case you have

$3x+8\geq 0 \iff 3x\geq -8 \iff x\geq -\dfrac{8}{3}$

In the second case, you have

$3x\geq 0 \iff x\geq 0$
