Hey there! I'm happy to help!
This is slope intercept form: y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. The slope is what is multiplying x. In our case, 2.83 is multiplying x, so 2.83 is the slope.
Have a wonderful day! :D
Answer:
(3x + 2)(x-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
3x² - 10x - 8 = 0
(splitting the middle term)
3x² -12x + 2x -8 = 0
3x(x-4) + 2(x-4) = 0
(3x + 2)(x-4) = 0
(3x + 2)(x-4) is the correct answer (option a)
