Hello,
(x-3)²+2(x-3)-8=0
x²-6x+9+2x-6-8=0
x²-4x-5=0
∆=b²-4ac=(4)²-4(-5)(1)=16+20=36
x₁,₂=-b±√∆/2a=4±6/2
x₁=4-6/2=-2/2=-1
x₂=4+6/2=10/2=5

Therefore the solutions are
x=-1 and x=5

See you soon :-)

(x-3) (x-3) +2(x-3) -8=0
(x-3+2)(x-3)-8=0
(x-1)(x-3)-8=0
x^2 -4x +3-8=0
x^2 - 4x -5=0
x^2 -5x +x-5=0
x(x-5)+x-5=0
(x+1)(x-5)=0
x= - 1, 5

In which direction must the graph of Rx) = 7% be shifted to produce the graph of g(x) = 7% + 7?
joja [24]

Answer:

B. Up

Step-by-step explanation:

If you alter a function by adding or subtracting a constant to the end of the expression, then the graph will slide up (down if subtracting) If you alter the x value by altering the expression in close to the x with addition or subtraction the graph will slide left or right.

Vertical translations (sliding up or down) go up when adding and down when subtracting as you would expect it to.

Horizontal translations are the oppoof what you might expect. A (x-h) will shift the graph right, while a (x+k) will shift the graph left.

The answer to your question is UP.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the points (-6, -10) and (1,4).​
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

y = mx + 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

(x,y)

- Plot each point on a graph

- The line should go from the bottom left (-6,-10) to the top right (1,4)

- Count how many spaces are on the y-axis from -6 to 1 for numerator

- Count how many spaces are on the x-axis from -10 to 4 for denominator

- Positive slope

- Slope = 7/14

- Simplify to 1/2
