Answer: y=-2/3x-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

concept to know: two lines that are perpendicular has opposite reciprocal slopes.

y=-2/3x+b

in order to find b or the y-intercept, we need to plug in a point

3=-2/3(-4)+b

3=8/3+b

b=-2/3

y=-2/3x-2/3

Hope this helps!! :)

Factor the expression completely.

evablogger [386]

Answer:

Factoring the expression $xy^4+x^4y^4$ completely we get $\mathbf{xy^4(x+1)(x^2-x+1)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to factor the expression $xy^4+x^4y^4$ completely

We need to find common terms in the expression.

Looking at the expression, we get $xy^4$ is common in both terms, so we can write:

$xy^4+x^4y^4\\=xy^4(1+x^3)$

So, taking out the common expression we get: $xy^4(1+x^3)$

Now, we can factor the term (1+x^3) or we can write (x^3+1) by using formula:

$a^3+b^3=(a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2)$

So, we get:

$xy^4(1+x^3)\\=xy^4(x^3+1)\\Applying\:the\:formula\;of\:a^3+b^3\\=xy^4(x+1)(x^2-x+1)$

Therefor factoring the expression $xy^4+x^4y^4$ completely we get $\mathbf{xy^4(x+1)(x^2-x+1)}$

Three times a number, less twice the number and 9 is 17. What is the number?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

I believe your answer is 8.

Three times a number less than twice the number and nine is seventeen can be written as: 3n - 2n + 9 = 17

Solve for n as follows:

3n - 2n = n

n + 9 = 17

17 - 9 = 8

Hope this helps! :)
