slope = 15

the equation of a line in ' point- slope form ' is

y - b = m(x - a) → ( where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line)

y - 9 = 15(x - 5) is in this form

thus slope = m = 15

Assuming that $3u + 12v\neq0$, simplify $\dfrac{12u^3 + 48u^2v}{3u+12v}$.

Kay [80]

Answer:

4u²

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{12u^3 + 48u^2v}{3u+12v}=\dfrac{12u^2(u+4v)}{3(u+4v)}=\boxed{4u^2}$

Common factors cancel from numerator and denominator. The one factor that might make the expression undefined is given as non-zero, so no additional restrictions apply.

Please help. Not sure how to do this one

Sladkaya [172]

The correct answer is: Option 3: $(hofog)(x)=\frac{x-14}{x+4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x)=\frac{x-6}{x}\\g(x)=x+4\\h(x)=3x-2$

We have to find

$(hofog)(x)$

This will be equal to:

$h(f(g(x)))$

So we have to find the composition of (fog)(x) first

$(fog)(x) = f(g(x))\\=\frac{x+4-6}{x+4}\\=\frac{x-2}{x+4}$

Now,

$(hofog)(x)=h(f(g(x)))\\=3(\frac{x-2}{x+4})-2\\=\frac{3x-6}{x+4}-2\\=\frac{3x-6-2(x+4)}{x+4}\\=\frac{3x-6-2x-8}{x+4}\\=\frac{x-14}{x+4}$

The correct answer is: Option 3: $(hofog)(x)=\frac{x-14}{x+4}$

X2 +8x+16=0 in factoring algorithm

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

(x+4)^2 =0

Step-by-step explanation:

x2 +8x+16=0

What 2 numbers multiply to 16 and add to 8

4*4 = 16

4+4 =8

(x+4) (x+4) =0

(x+4)^2 =0

Elimination using addition and subtraction. <br> -4x+4y=-20<br> -2x+4y=-2

goldfiish [28.3K]

I would subtract the 2nd from the first one

so -4x - -2x = -2x

4y - 4y = 0

-20 - -2 = -18

-2x = -18

now I would divide that by -2 to get the value for x

so no we have x = 9

now you just have to substitute that into one of the equations and simplify to get y

-2 X 9 + 4y = -2

-18 + 4y = -2

4y =16

y = 4
