Answer:

The equation is y = (1/2)x + - 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We look for an equation with the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.

We're given the slope, (1/2) which we can use for m:

y = (1/2)x + b

We are told the line goes through (5,-1). We need a value of b that will move the line to include this point. Do that by substituting the values:

x = 5, and y= -1

y = (1/2)x + b

-1 = (1/2)*5 + b

-1 = (2.5) + b

- 3.5 = b

The equation is y = (1/2)x + - 3.5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractions are: $\frac{1}{5}$ and $\frac{2}{3}$ . Let's take a look at the denominators: 5 and 3. The LCD of 5 and 3 is 15. 5x3=15, 3x5=15. So now we would multiply the denominators to make them the same number like this: $\frac{5}{15}$ and $\frac{10}{15}$ . Remember that if you multiply the denominator by a certain number, you must multiply the numerator by the same number as well. For example, in $\frac{2}{3}$ , we multiply 3 by 5 and 2 by 5. Same number. Now with that out of the way, let's work on the equation: $\frac{1}{5}$ + $\frac{2}{3}$ . We know it is the same as $\frac{5}{15}$ and $\frac{10}{15}$ . So now all we do is add the numerators together: 5+10=15 or $\frac{15}{15}$ . Now we have to reduce the fraction. $\frac{15}{15}$ can be reduced to 3 by dividing 15 by 5=3. The final fraction is $\frac{3}{3}$ or can be simply put as 3 since 3/3 is a whole number. That's it - you're done!

a⁴(3a² - 2a + 1)

We just have to multiply each term inside the parentheses by a⁴ .

 a⁴(3a² ) = 3a⁶

 a⁴( - 2a ) = -2a⁵

 a⁴( 1) = a⁴

Now, just addum up : 3a⁶ - 2a⁵ + a⁴
