(4,7) and (5,1) as an equation

Mathematics
1 answer:
monitta4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

y = -6x + 31

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for us to make this an equation of the form y = mx + b we have to find the slope.

The formula for slope is rise/ run. The rise is 6 and the run is -1.

So, the slope is 6/-1 or -6.

Our equation is now: y = -6x + b

Substituting 4,7 into the equation we get 7 = -24 + b

So, b = 31.

To check out answers we substitute 5,1 in and it works.

The function f is defined by f(x) x2 -6x +21. What are the solutions of f(x) 0? Show your work.
Xelga [282]

f(x)= x^2 -6x +21

0 =x^2-6x+21

subtract 21 from each side to prepare for completing the square

-21 = x^2 -6x

completing the square (b/2)^2

(-6/2) ^ =3^2 = 9

add 9 to each side

-21 +9 = x^2 - 6x + 9

-21 +9 =(x-3) ^2

-12 = (x-3)^2

take the square root of each side

+- sqrt(-12) = x-3

add 3 to each side, take out the negative inside the square root

3 +- i sqrt(12)=x

simplify the square root  sqrt(12)= sqrt(4)sqrt(3) =2sqrt(3)

3 +- i 2sqrt (3) = x

Answer: 3+2isqrt(3)

            3-2isqrt(3)

What does ‘x’ equal
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

x=(-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

(−2/3)(9+x)=0

(−2/3)(9)+(−2/3)(x)=0(Distribute)

−6+−2/3x=0

−2/3x−6=0

Step 2: Add 6 to both sides.

−2/3x−6+6=0+6

−2/3x=6

Step 3: Multiply both sides by 3/(-2).

(3−2)*(−2/3x)=(3−2)*(6)

x=−9
