Find the equation of the line with slope 3/7 and that passes through the point (14, 0). Write your answer in the form y = mx + b

Allushta [10]

Answer:

y = 3/7x - 6

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
Equality Properties

<u>Algebra I</u>

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

Slope <em>m</em> = 3/7

Point (14, 0)

<u>Step 2: Find y-intercept </u><em><u>b</u></em>

Substitute: 0 = 3/7(14) + b
Multiply: 0 = 6 + b
Isolate <em>b</em>: -6 = b
Rewrite: b = -6

<u>Step 3: Write linear equation</u>

y = 3/7x - 6

If f(x)=x^2- 4 and g(x)=x^2 plus 2 x,

gregori [183]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{(f-g)\left(-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)=-3\dfrac{1}{3}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{We have}:\\\\f(x)=x^2-4\ \text{and}\ g(x)=x^2+2x\\\\(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)\\\\\text{therefore}\\\\(f-g)(x)=(x^2-4)-(x^2+2x)=x^2-4-x^2-2x\\\\=(x^2-x^2)-2x-4=-2x-4\\\\(f-g)\left(-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)\to\text{put}\ x=-\dfrac{1}{3}\ \text{to the equation of the function}\ (f-g)(x):\\\\(f-g)\left(-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)=-2\left(-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)-4=\dfrac{2}{3}-4=-3\dfrac{1}{3}$
