Answer:
<em>x = 9</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of equation of a line is expressed as y = mx+c
m is the slope
c is the y intercept
Note that the line does not have a slope and the x intercept of the line is a point where the line cuts the x axis. Hence the equation of the line will be expressed as x = c where c is the x intercept;
<em>From the graph, the x intercept =9. Hence the equation of the given line is x = 9</em>
Slope is -1/2
2-4/6-2=
-1/2
m=-1/2
Answer:
Option (b) is correct.
The expression is equivalent, but the term is not completely factored.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : a student factors to
We have to choose the correct statement about from the given options.
Given is factored to
Consider
Using algebraic identity,
comparing and b = 4, we have,
Thus, the factorization is equivalent but we can simplify it further also, as
Using algebraic identity,
Thus,
Can be written as
Thus, the expression is equivalent, but the term is not completely factored.
Option (b) is correct.
3x - 5y = 18 over
-10x + 5y = 10
Add them because the 5y's have the right symbols for us to add
-7x = 28
Divide
x = -4
Now you can plug in -4 for x in one equation, I would use the first equation!
3(-4) - 5y = 18
-12 - 5y = 18
Add 12
-5y = 30
Divide
y = -6
Your solutions are going to be:
x = -4
y = -6
To check your work plug x and y into one equation:
3(-4) - 5(-6) = 18
-12 + 30 = 18
18 = 18
Since 18 does equal 18 you know that your solution's work!
