Option C (Same as Option D)

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Option C and D are the same, so I'll assume you made a mistake when writing this question. However, let's figure out which of the following equations has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (2,3):

A. y = -2x + 6

B. y - 3 = -2(x + 2)

C. y = -2x + 7

<em />

<em>All these equations have a slope of -2.</em>

FROM OPTION A:

Recall \ our \ point \ is \ (2,3), \ so: \\ \\ x=2 \\ \\ y=3 \\ \\ Substituting \ into \ the \ equation: \\ \\ 3=-2(2)+6 \\ \\ 3=-4+6 \\ \\ 3=2 \ False!

Since 3\neq 2 then the line doesn't pass through the point (2, 3)

FROM OPTION B:

Recall \ our \ point \ is \ (2,3), \ so: \\ \\ x=2 \\ \\ y=3 \\ \\ Substituting \ into \ the \ equation: \\ \\ 3-3=-2((2)+2) \\ \\ 0=-2(4) \\ \\ 0=-8 \ False!

Since 0\neq -8 then the line doesn't pass through the point (2, 3)

FROM OPTION C:

Recall \ our \ point \ is \ (2,3), \ so: \\ \\ x=2 \\ \\ y=3 \\ \\ Substituting \ into \ the \ equation: \\ \\ 3=-2(2)+7 \\ \\ 3=-4+7 \\ \\ 3=3 \ True!

Since 3\neq 3 then the line passes through the point (2, 3)

<em>Finally, the equation that has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (2,3) is Option C (Same as Option D)</em>

Can any one help please :)
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract 3 by the numbers

-8 > 4x > 4

Remember to flip the inequality signs

Second, divide all the numbers by 4

-2 < x < 1

Flip the inequality signs again

-2 > x > 1

I am not very experienced with these problems so I might be wrong.

Help please!!!!<br><br> x = ___ units
Natali [406]

Answer:

x = <u>20</u> units

Step-by-step explanation:

∆KJL is a 30° - 60° - 90° triangle which means that side opposite of 30° is x, side opposite of 60° is x√3, and side opposite of 90° is 2x.

Since side opposite of 90° is 40√2 which is 2x and x is the side opposite of 30° (JL).

2x = 40√2 → 2x ÷ 2 = 40√2 ÷ 2 → x = 20√2.

∆JML is a 45° - 45° - 90° triangle which means that sides opposite of 45° are x and 90° is x√2.

Since side JL is also the side opposite of 90° and the sides opposite of 45° are the value x,

20√2 = x√2 → 20√2 ÷ √2 = x√2 ÷ √2 → 20 = x →

x = 20.

A baseball team played 154 regular season games. The ratio of the number of games they won to the number of games they lost was
faltersainse [42]

a.

Let

5x = number of games won

2x = number of games lost

The total number of win and lose is 154. So

5x + 2x = 154

Solving for x,

7x = 154

x = 22

Therefore, the number of games won is 5*22=110 and the number of games lost is 2*22 is 44.

b.

Let

6x = first side of the triangle

7x = second side of the triangle

9x = third side of the triangle

The perimeter of a triangle is the total of all sides. So,

6x + 7x + 9x = 88

22x = 88

x = 4

Therefore, the three lengths of the side are 6*4=24, 7*4=28, and 9*4 = 36

Fill in the blanks below regarding the end behavior of g(x) = -3x - 1. (3 pts each) On the left, the graph On the right, the gra
OLEGan [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Determine the end behavior</u>

The <em>left side </em>of the graph goes to positive infinity in the y direction but negative infinity in the x direction.

         x → -∞

         f(x) → ∞

The <em>right side</em> of the graph goes to negative infinity in the y direction but positivie infinity in the x direction.

         x  → ∞

         f(x) → -∞
