Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

To calculate m use the slope formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (5, 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 8)

m = \frac{8-6}{4-5} = \frac{2}{-1} = - 2

There are 2 possible equations, however both are equivalent

Using (a, b) = (5, 6), then

y - 6 = - 2(x - 5)

Using (a, b) = (4, 8), then

y - 8 = - 2(x - 4)

330 page/(3/4 Hour):==> 330 : 3/4
To solve this division you have to MULTIPLY the 1st term by the reciprocal of the 2nd (the reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3), so

330 x 4/3 = (330x4)/3 = 440

at a golf course, a worker placed 216 golf balls equally into 9 buckets. what is the ratio of golf balls to buckets?
ankoles [38]
The ratio is 216:9, which can be simplified to 72:3, which can be simplified to 34:1. This can also be written as a fraction (34/1). It means there are 34 golf balls for every one bucket.

its actually 10 points

x^4 + 9x^3 + 15x^2 + 9x + 14

 

Split  15x^2  into  14x^2  +  x^2

 

x^4 + 9x^3 + 14x^2 + x^2 + 9x + 14     factor as

 

x^2  [x^2 + 9x + 14 ]  +  1 [ x^2 + 9x + 14 ]   take out GCF

 

[ x^2 + 1 ] [ x^2 + 9x + 14 ]

 

[ x^2 + 1 ] [  x + 7 ] [ x + 2 ]
