Answer:
the answer for |x+5|=3=x=-2and x=-8
and for the other one is x=8 and x=2
This is easy to do because you can factor
example
6/2=3 because 6=2*3 so 6/2=3/1 times 2/2 or 3
2x^3+17x^2+23x-42 can be factored out to equal
(x-1)(x+6)(2x+7)
so [(x-1)(x+6)(2x+7)]/(2x+7)=[(x-1)(x+6)] times (2x+7)/(2x+7)=(x-1)(x+6)=x^2+5x-6
the answer is (x-1)(x+6) or x^2+5x-6
Use the slope formula y2-y1/x2-x1
3-(-7)/1-(-1) = 10/2 = 5
To find the y-intercept:
y=5x+b
3=5(1)+b
3 = 5+b
-5 -5
-2=b
The equation of the line that passes through (-1,-7) and (1,3) is
y=5x-2
