We want to calculate the line that passes through the points (-7,0) and (-3,-9). Recall that the equation of a line is

y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. We can calculate first the slope and then find the value of b. To do so, recall that given points (a,b) and (c,d) the slope of the line that passes through them is given by the formula

m=\frac{(d\text{ -b)}}{(c\text{ -a)}}=\frac{b\text{ -d}}{a\text{ -c}}

so by taking a=-7, b=0, c=-3 and d=-9 we get

m=\frac{0\text{ - (-9)}}{\text{ -7 -( -3)}}=\frac{9}{\text{ -4}}=\text{ -}\frac{9}{4}

so our equation becomes

y=\text{ -}\frac{9}{4}x+b

so know we want this line to pass through the point (-7,0), so whenever x= -7 then y=0 so we have the equation

0=\text{ -}\frac{9}{4}(\text{ -7)+b}

or equivalently

0=\frac{63}{4}+b

so if we subtract 63/4 on both sides, we get

b=\text{ -}\frac{63}{4}

so our equation would be

y=\text{ -}\frac{9}{4}x\text{ -}\frac{63}{4}

The expression which represents the other factor, or factors, of the given polynomial is option (C) (2x-1)(x+1)

A cubic equation in algebra is a one-variable equation of the form ax3+bx2+cx+d=0 where an is nonzero. The roots of the cubic function defined by the left side of this equation are the solutions to this equation.

Given expression 2x³-3x²-3x+2 whose one of factor is (x-2)

We have to find second factor of given equation

First we will be rational root theorem to given expression so will get following expression:

\left(x+1\right)\frac{2x^3-3x^2-3x+2}{x+1}

So one factor is (x-1) and now simplifying \frac{2x^3-3x^2-3x+2}{x+1}  we get              2x² - 5x +2 and the factor of 2x² - 5x +2 will be (2x-1)(x-2)

Hence the expression which represents the other factor, or factors, of the given polynomial is option (C) (2x-1)(x+1)
