Remark
This is costing you an awful lot of points, but it is a little hard to read. If I'm not interpreting it correctly, leave some sort of note below my answer.

Question One
In the first question you want a line that is parallel to x = 4 and goes through the point (-7,3). If I'm reading this correctly then the line you want is x = -7. You only need the x value of the given point. I'll put a graph there to show you what it looks like on a grid.  The graph is the left one for this question.

Question Two
Here I think you want the line going through (5,-1) and perpendicular to y = 4x - 7. I will make a graph for that one as well.

Begin with the slope
Two lines are perpendicular to each other if their slopes multiply to - 1
Given slope (m1) = 4
perpendicular slope = m2

Formula
m1 * m2 = - 1
4 * m2 = -1      Divide by 4
m2 = -1/4

So far what you have is
y = (-1/4)x + b

Now use the given point to solve for b
x = 5
y = - 1
b = ??

-1 = (-1/4)*5 + b
-1 = -5/4 + b  Add 5/4 to both sides
-1 + 5/4 + b   Make -1 into -4/4
b = -4/4 + 5/4
b = (-4 + 5)/4
b = 1/4

So the line that you want is
y = (-1/4) x + 1/4

Answers
One:  x = - 7
Two: y = (-1/4)x + 1/4

Note
The right graph is of y = 4x - 7 and y = (-1/4)x + 1/4

5x(3x+2)-4(2x-1)<br><br><br><br> Yea i needd help
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer: 15x² + 2x + 4

x = -2/3, 0, 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x(3x + 2) - 4(2x - 1)

First, distribute:

15x² + 10x - 8x + 4

Combine like terms:

15x² + 2x + 4

This is your polynomial!

If you needed to solve for x, take your original factored polynomial and set each term equal to 0:

5x(3x + 2) - 4(2x - 1)

5x = 0

x = 0

3x + 2 = 0

3x = -2

x = -2/3

-4 = 0

No solution

2x - 1 = 0

2x = 1

x = 1/2

x = -2/3, 0, 1/2

Hope this helps!
