Answer:

slope: -1/2

y-intercept: -2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = mx+b

m is slope

b is the y-intercept

if f(x) = -1/2x - 2

then

the slope or m is -1/2

and the y-intercept or b is -2

How to factor 4(x+5)^3(x-1)^2-(x+5)^4 • 2 (x-1) by grouping?

nata0808 [166]

$\bf 4(x+5)^3(x-1)^2-(x+5)^4\cdot 2(x-1)
\\\\\\
4(x+5)^3(x-1)^2-2(x-1)(x+5)^4
\\\\\\ \underline{2}\cdot 2\underline{(x+5)^3}(x-1)\underline{(x-1)}~-~\underline{2}\underline{(x-1)}(x+5)\underline{(x+5)^3}\leftarrow 
\begin{array}{llll}
notice~the\\
common\\ \underline{factors}
\end{array}
\\\\\\
2(x+5)^3(x-1)~[~2(x-1)-(x+5)~]
\\\\\\
2(x+5)^3(x-1)~[2x-2-x-5]\implies 2(x+5)^3(x-1)(x-7)$
