Answer:

x = - 4, x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 36 = 5x ( subtract 5x from both sides )

x² - 5x - 36 = 0 ← in standard form

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 36) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 5)

The factors are - 9 and + 4, since

- 9 × 4 = - 36 and - 9 + 4 = - 5, thus

(x - 9)(x + 4) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9

Write a linear function f with f(−9)=10 and f(−1)=−2

pashok25 [27]

First we need to find the slope of the function

The slope of a function is equal to

$\frac{f(x_2)-f(x_1)}{x_2-x_1}$

So now we plug this into the equation and find the slope (M will represent the slope)

$m=\frac{10--2}{-9--1}\\m=\frac{12}{-8}\\m=-\frac{3}{2}$

So the slope is -3/2

Now we can use point-slope form.

Point slope form is represented by

$Y-Y_1=m(X-X_1)$

So when we plug in our values we get

$Y--2=-3/2(X--1)\\Y+2 = -3/2(X+1)\\Y+2 = -3/2X-3/2\\Y=-3/2X-7/2$

So the equation is

Y = -3/2X-7/2

The point (-1,-4) is on the line given by which equation below ?

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

D. y = 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 4x

Plug in The point (-1,-4) into the equation

when x = -1, y = 4(-1) = -4

So (-1,-4) is the solution of y = 4x
