3x^2+ 2x -18x -12
= (3x^2+ 2x) -(18x+ 12)
= x(3x+ 2) -6(3x+ 2)
= (3x+2)(x-6)

Final answer: (3x+2)(x-6)

Y=log(x-3) what would be the base?

timurjin [86]

By definition, if :

$a^y = b$

$y = log_a b$

We highlight the following elements:

a = Base of the logarithm;
b = logarithmand or antilogarithm
y = logarithm

Therefore:

Note that since the base was not specified, we know that it is equal to 10.

$y = log_a b$
$y = log_{10} (x-3)$
$10^y = (x-3)$

Answer:

Base of the logarithm = 10

What is the slope and y-intercept of the line 3x - 4y = 12?*

Lorico [155]

Answer:

m = 3/4; b = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, put the given equation into slope-intercept form. This is so we can identify its slope and y-intercept easily. Isolate y:

$3x-4y = 12\\-4y = -3x+12\\y = \frac{3}{4} x-3$

2) Lines that are in slope-intercept form are represented by the formula $y = mx + b$ . The number in place of $m$ , or the coefficient of the x-term, represents the slope. The number in place of $b$ represents the y-intercept. So, the slope of $y = \frac{3}{4} x-3$ is $\frac{3}{4}$ , and its y-intercept is -3.
