3 times a =3a and 3times b=3b you can do the rainbow

Couldnt you just use the distributive property where you multiply 3 to A and multiply 3 to B which would equal 3a+3b

Eighty-seven decreased by three times a number is greater than one hundred sixty-five

fenix001 [56]

This is the concept of algebra, we are required to find a number,x, such that 87 decreased by three times a number is great than one hundred and sixty-five.

Supposed the number is x, three times the number will be:
3*x=3x
thus;
87-3x≥165
-3x≥165-87
-3x≥78
dividing both sides by -3 we get:
(-3x)/(-3x)≥78/(-3)
x≤-26
This implies that the number is less than or equal to 26

Write a linear equation that passes through the points(2,-2) and (0,1)

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Slope intercept: y = -3/2x + 1

Point slope: y + 2 = -3/2 * (x - 2) [Forgot to add the work for this, I will add it if you need it, feel free to ask.]

Step-by-step explanation:

m = (change in y)/change in x)

But also

m = y_2 - y_1/x_2 - x_1

So lets substitute

m = 1 - (-2)/0 - (2)

Lets find the slope

m = 3/0 - (2)

m = 3/-2

m = -3/2 (Moved the negative)

Now we find the value of b using the equation of a line.

y = mx + b

y = (-3/2) * x + b

y = (-3/2) * (2) + b

-2 = (-3/2) * (2) + b

Now we find the value of b

Lets rewrite

-3/2 * 2 + b = -2

Cancel the CF of 2

-3 + b = -2

Move the terms without b to the right

b = -2 + 3

b = 1

Now we substitute our values of the slope and y-int into y = mx + b to find the equation.

y = -3/2x + 1

Answer:

Proof below.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Quadratic Formula</u>

$x=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}\quad\textsf{when }\:ax^2+bx+c=0$

<u>Given quadratic equation</u>:

$5x^2-6x-2=0$

<u>Define the variables</u>:

a = 5
b = -6
c = -2

<u>Substitute</u> the defined variables into the quadratic formula and <u>solve for x</u>:

$\implies x=\dfrac{-(-6) \pm \sqrt{(-6)^2-4(5)(-2)}}{2(5)}$

$\implies x=\dfrac{6 \pm \sqrt{36+40}}{10}$

$\implies x=\dfrac{6 \pm \sqrt{76}}{10}$

$\implies x=\dfrac{6 \pm \sqrt{4 \cdot 19}}{10}$

$\implies x=\dfrac{6 \pm \sqrt{4}\sqrt{19}}{10}$

$\implies x=\dfrac{6 \pm2\sqrt{19}}{10}$

$\implies x=\dfrac{3 \pm \sqrt{19}}{5}$

Therefore, the exact solutions to the given <u>quadratic equation</u> are:

$x=\dfrac{3 + \sqrt{19}}{5} \:\textsf{ and }\:x=\dfrac{3 - \sqrt{19}}{5}$
