Leading coefficient = -3
Constant = 2
When you order them in standard form, you need to put them in ascending order of the exponents. Therefore the -3x^2 would come first, which makes the number attached (-3) the lead coefficient.
Also, since the number (2) without an x attached would be last (due to the power of x technically being 0), than that is the constant.
Answer:
y = 1/2 - 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
All we need to do is find the y-intercept of the line using the formula for slope intercept form [ y = mx + b ].
-3 = 1/2(-3) + b
-3 = -1.5 + b
-1.5 = b
We can put all the information we know/solved for into the formula.
y = 1/2 - 1.5
Best of Luck!
18 / 1 = x / 15......18 miles to 1 gallon = x miles to 15 gallon
cross multiply
(1)(x) = (18)(15)
x = 270 miles
