Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
For simplify the work we can start to factorise all the possibles expressions:
2x + 8.
8 is multiple of 2, so it can became
2(x+4)
x^2 - 16 this is a difference of two squares, so it can be rewritten as:
(x+4)(x-4)
x^2 + 8x + 16
we have to find two numbers whose sum is 8 and whose product is 16
the two number are 4 and 4
it becames:
(x+4)(x+4)
x+ 4 can‘t be simplified
if we look at the expression, we can find that x-4 appears at the numerator so
x^2 - 16 must be at numerator
but the second factor (x+4) doesn’t appear, so has been simplified. This situation can be possible only in the D option
in fact
(x+4)(x-4)/2(x+4) * (x+4)/(x+4)(x+4)
it became
(x+4)(x-4)/2 * 1/(x+4)(x+4)
(x-4)/2(x+4)
B
6(2x + 8)
6•2x= 12x
6•8=48
2x + 12x = 14x
14x + 48
Answer:
y = -x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
y + 2 = -x - 1
y = - x - 1 - 2
y = -x - 3
Point: (-2,6)
Slope -1
y-intercept: 6 - (-1)(-2)
= 6- 2 = 4
