Hey there! :) 

To find an equation of a line that passes through (5, 1) and has a slope of 2, we'll need to plug our known variables into the slope-intercept equation.

Slope-intercept equation : y = mx + b ; where m=slope, b=y-intercept

Since we're already given the slope, all we really need to do is find the y-intercept.

We can do this by plugging our known values into the slope-intercept equation.

y = mx + b

Since we're trying to find "b," we need to plug in "y, m, x" into our formula.

(1) = (2)(5) + b

Simplify.

1 = 10 + b

Subtract 10 from both sides.

1 - 10 = b

Simplify.

-9 = b

So, our y-intercept is 9! 

Now, we can very simply plug our known values into slope-intercept form.

y = mx + b

y = 2x - 9 → final answer

~Hope I helped!~

Factor x3+x2+x+1 by grouping. What is the resulting expression
zmey [24]

Answer:

(x+1) (x^2+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3+x^2+x+1

Factor by grouping

x^3+x^2           +x+1

Factor out x^2 from the first group  and 1 from the second group

x^2( x+1)  + 1( x+1)

Factor out (x+1)

(x+1) (x^2+1)

A window has the shape of a rectangle with a semicircle at the top.
Sidana [21]

Answer:

8+pi/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangle on the bottom is 8, or 2*4. The area of the top is half (because it's a semi circle) of pi*r^2, or just 1/2 pi
