<h3>
Answer: b = 17</h3>
====================================================
Explanation:
The line must go through the point (5,2) which means x = 5 and y = 2 pair up together.
We'll plug these x and y values into the equation and solve for b.
y = -3x+b
2 = -3(5)+b
2 = -15+b
2+15 = b
17 = b
b = 17
The equation y = -3x+b turns into y = -3x+17
24x^2 +25x - 47 53
----------------------- = -8x -3 - ---------------
ax-2 ax-2
add 53/ax-2 to each side
24x^2 +25x - 47+53
----------------------- = -8x -3
ax-2
24x^2 +25x +6
----------------------- = -8x -3
ax-2
multiply each side by ax-2
24x^2 +25x +6 = (ax-2) (-8x-3)
multiply out the right hand side
24x^2 +25x +6 = -8ax^2 +16x-3ax +6
24 = -8a 25 = 16 -3a
a = -3 9 = -3a
a = -3
Choice B
Answer:
0.0012
Step-by-step explanation:
0.0096/8=0.0012
The algebra tiles show two equal factors. They are (x + 4).
Then, the perfect square is the product of the two equal factors, (x + 4) * (x +4).
That is (x + 4)^2.
Then develop that perfect square to find the constant term.
(x + 4)^2 = x^2 + 8x + 16.
That means that the constant term needed to complete the trinomial is 16.
Answer: 16
