Answer:

y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - \frac{1}{2}, thus

y = - \frac{1}{2} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (8, 1) into the partial equation

1 = - 4 + c ⇒ c = 1 + 4 = 5

y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 5 ← in slope- intercept form

The quotient of (x^3+3x^2-4x-12)/(x^2+5x+6)
Elis [28]

Answer: The quotient is (x-2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

f(x)=(x^3+3x^2-4x-12)\\\\and\\\\g(x)=x^2+5x+6\\\\So,\ \frac{\left(x^3+3x^2-4x-12\right)}{\left(x^2+5x+6\right)}

Now, we have to find the quotient of the above expression.

So, here we go:

Factorise\ (x^3+3x^2-4x-12)\\\\=\left(x^3+3x^2\right)+\left(-4x-12\right)\\\\=-4\left(x+3\right)+x^2\left(x+3\right)\\\\=\left(x+3\right)\left(x^2-4\right)

Now, we will divide the above simplest form with g(x):

\frac{\left(x+3\right)\left(x^2-4\right)}{\left(x+2\right)\left(x+3\right)}\\\\=\frac{x^2-4}{x+2}\\\\=\frac{\left(x+2\right)\left(x-2\right)}{x+2}\ using\ (a^2-b^2)=(a+b)(a-b)\\\\=x-2

Hence, the quotient is (x-2).

How do you find the middle term of a perfect square trinomial?
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Take the square root of the constant (number w/o the variable) and then multiply that by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

A perfect square trinomial is something like this: x^{2} +6x+9. If I have 6x, and I want to find the last term I would take half a six and then square it to get 9.

SO.... To get the middle term of a perfect square trinomial, you would need to do the reverse.. So...

1) Take the square root of the constant...

2) Multiply that by 2
