Answer:

k = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

-4k + 2(5k − 6) = −3k – 48

Distribute on the left side.

-4k + 10k - 12 = -3k - 48

Combine like terms on the left side.

6k - 12 = -3k - 48

Add 3k to both sides.

9k - 12 = -48

Add 12 to both sides.

9k = -36

Divide both sides by 9.

k = -4

Polynomial expressions with matching

Answer:

The difference of 27x³ and 8y³ → [3x - 2y][9x² + 6xy + 4y²]

The difference of 27x³ and 64y³ → [3x - 4y][9x² + 12xy + 16y²]

The sum of 27x³ and 64y³ → [3x + 4y][9x² - 12xy + 16y²]

The sum of 27x³ and 8y³ → [3x + 2y][9x² - 6xy + 4y²]

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first two, we use the Difference of Cubes [(a³ - b³)(a² + 2ab + b²)] first by taking the cube root of the given expression to get our first factor[s]:

$\displaystyle 3x - 2y = \sqrt[3]{27x^3 - 8y^3} \\ 3x - 4y = \sqrt[3]{27x^3 - 64y^3}$

Then, use the acronym of SOAP {whether the next operations symbols will be negative or positive [SAME (your cube-rooted factor has an IDENTICAL OPERATION SYMBOL as your given expression), OPPOSITE (the first sign in your second factor in the second set of parentheses will be the opposite of what the sign in your given expression, which will be a plus sign), ALWAYS POSITIVE (the last sign in your second factor in the second set of parentheses will ALWAYS stay positive NO MATTER WHAT)]} to get the second factor:

Given: 27x³ - 64y³

[3x - 4y][9x² + 12xy + 16y²]

Now, for the last two, we use the Sum of Cubes [(a³ + b³)(a² - 2ab + b²)] first by taking the cube root of the given expression to get our first factor[s]:

$\displaystyle 3x + 2y = \sqrt[3]{27x^3 + 8y^3} \\ 3x + 4y = \sqrt[3]{27x^3 + 64y^3}$

Then, use the acronym of SOAP {whether the next operations symbols will be negative or positive [SAME (your cube-rooted factor has an IDENTICAL OPERATION SYMBOL as your given expression), OPPOSITE (the first sign in your second factor in the second set of parentheses will be the opposite of what the sign is in your given expression, which will be a minus sign), ALWAYS POSITIVE (the last sign in your second factor in the second set of parentheses will ALWAYS stay positive NO MATTER WHAT)]} to get the second factor:

Given: 27x³ + 64y³

[3x + 4y][9x² - 12xy + 16y²]

↑ ↑ ↘

Given: 27x³ + 8y³

I am delighted to assist you anytime!

* As you can see, when using the <em>Difference\Sum of Cubes</em>, SOAP can vary depending on how an expression is given to you. They resemble each other though.

The general form for a linear equation is given as: y = a + bx. In the regression equation, b is called the ______.

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Slope

Step-by-step explanation:

In the regression equation y=a+bx, y is dependent variable and x is independent variable. It means that due to change in x the y changes respectively. The "a" is intercept of the model and it shows the value of y when x is zero. The "b" is the slope of the model and it depicts the change in y due to unit change in x. The positive value of b means that as the x increases y also increases and as the x decreases y also decreases. The negative value of b means that as the x decreases y increases and as the x increases the y decreases.The sign of b shows the type of relationship between independent and dependent variable.

What positive whole number can you multiply by 3 and add1,or multiply by 2 and add 8?

Vilka [71]

Answer:

7 is the positive whole number which we can multiply by 3 and add 1, or multiply by 2 and add 8; and it will give the same answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying the positive whole number 7 by 3 and adding 1 will get:

(7 × 3) + 1 = 21 + 1 = 22

Multiplying the positive whole number 7 by 2 and adding 8 will get:

(7 × 2) + 8 = 14 + 8 = 22

Therefore, 7 is the positive whole number which we can multiply by 3 and add 1, or multiply by 2 and add 8; and it will give the same answer.

Which ordered pair is the solution to the system of equations? {x+3y=-12, y= 1/3x-6?

Julli [10]

For this, I'll be using the substitution method. Since y = 1/3x - 6, replace the y variable in the first equation with 1/3x - 6 and solve for x:

$x+3(\frac{1}{3}x-6)=-12\\ x+x-18=-12\\ 2x-18=-12\\ 2x=6\\ x=3$

Now that we have the value of x, plug it into either equation to solve for y:

$3+3y=-12\\ 3y=-15\\ y=-5\\ \\ y=\frac{1}{3}*3-6\\ y=1-6\\ y=-5$

<h3><u>In short, the solution to this equation is (3,-5).</u></h3>
