The student is wrong in not putting a parenthesis between 1/3 and x. An equation of a line has a general equation of y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. In this case, most likely 1/3 is the slope and 0 is the y-intercept. However, writing the equation like that seems like the x variable is a denominator and if that is the case the equation will not represent a line already.

How do we check if a solution is extraneous? Use these equations as examples to help you explain:
Maurinko [17]
Multiplying both sides of a rational equation by a variable expression introduces the possibility of extraneous solutions. Therefore, we must check the solutions against the set of restrictions. If a solution is a restriction, then it is not part of the domain and is extraneous.

Connie and Chris are saving money to go to a concert. Each friend starts with some money and saves a specific amount each week.
Sergio039 [100]
Ok. you're looking for the slope intercept, or how much each of them had before they started saving. Chris had $27, as that is where his line crossed the y axis, and Connie, when graphed, intercepted at $9. <span />

Find the area of the shaded region
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Area of the shaded region= 500inch^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the shaded region= Area of the triangle- Area of the rectangle

Dimensions of the triangle:

Base= 40 inch

Height= 40 inch

Area of a triangle=\frac{1}{2}*Base*Height

           =\frac{1}{2}*40*40\\\\ =\frac{1}{2} *1600\\\\=800 inch^2

Area of the rectangle= Length*Width

Length=30 inch

Width=10 inch

Area:

          = 30*10\\\\=300 inch^2

Area of the shaded region=  800-300= 500 inch^2
