Since area is length times width, it would be the factors of the equation for the area.
X2+11x+28 factors into...
Length is x+7 so...
Width is x+4
The correct answer is y=2/3x
To find the slope you use rise over run so you take one dot (2,-5) and go up 2 units so that it would get one the same line as the other dot (5,-3) and then go to the right 3 units to get you to the exact spot that the dot is
Answer: The solution is the ordered pair (1/2, -3/4) so x = 1/2 and y = -3/4 pair up together. The two lines, when graphed, cross at this location.
note: 1/2 = 0.5 and -3/4 = -0.75; so the intersection point can be written as (0.5, -0.75)

Explanation:
The second equation has y isolated. We can replace the y in the first equation with the expression 1/2x - 1
3x + 2y = 0
3x + 2( y ) = 0
3x + 2( 1/2x - 1) = 0 ... y is replaced with 1/2x-1
3x + 2(1/2x) + 2(-1) = 0 .... distribute
3x + x - 2 = 0 .... note how 2 times 1/2 is 1
4x - 2 = 0
4x = 2
x = 2/4
x = 1/2
Use this x value to find the y value it pairs with
y = (1/2)*x - 1
y = (1/2)*(1/2) - 1 ... replace x with 1/2
y = 1/4 - 1
y = 1/4 - 4/4
y = (1-4)/4
y = -3/4
Answer: (x³ - 2x² - 11x + 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that zeroes can be transformed into factors by subtracting them from x. This gives us the following factors:
(x - 1)(x + 3)(x - 4)
Now, if you multiply the first two factors together, you get the following:
(x² + 2x - 3)
Multiply that by the last factor, (x - 4), and you get this:
(x³ + 2x² - 3x - 4x² - 8x + 12)
This can be simplified:
(x³ - 2x² - 11x + 12)
And there's your final answer. Hope this helped! (x³ - 2x² - 11x + 12)
