The slope of the equation is -2

So first we need to find the slope. The equation find slope is:

\frac{ y_{2}  -y_{1} }{ x_{2}-  x_{1} }

Either of the points could be denoted as '1' or '2',

Let's plug in the point (0, 8) as '1' and (-1, 10) as '2':

\frac{10-8}{-1-0} = \frac{2}{-1}=-2

So we know that the slope, m, is equal to -2.

The point-slope equation is:

y- y_{1}=m(x- x_{1})

where m is the slope and x_{1} and y_{1} are the point. So since we have two points here, we can pick one to use for the equation. Let's use (-1, 10):

y-(10)=-2(x-(-1))

**We need to make sure that we have accounted for all of the signs. Remember that two negatives equal a positive:

y-10=-2(x+1)

And there is your point slope form of the line that passes through the two points.

Help What is the graph???
marin [14]

We are given

y=\frac{x^2-4x+3}{x^2-9}

Vertical asymptotes:

Firstly, we will factor numerator and denominator

we get

y=\frac{(x-1)(x-3)}{(x-3)(x+3)}

We can see that (x-3) is common in both numerator and denominator

so, we will only set x+3 to 0

and then we can find vertical asymptote

x+3=0

x=-3

Hole:

We can see that (x-3) is common in both numerator and denominator

so, hole will be at x-3=0

x=3

Horizontal asymptote:

We can see that degree of numerator is 2

degree of denominator is also 2

for finding horizontal asymptote, we find ratio of leading coefficients of numerator and denominator

and we get

y=1

now, we can draw graph

Solve the inequality. |2x + 10| > 26
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

x > 8

x < -16

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 10 > 26

2x + 10 - 10 > 26 - 10

2x > 16

2x/2 > 16/2

x > 8

2x + 10 < -26

2x + 10 - 10 < - 26 - 10

2x < -36

2x/2 < -36/2

x < -16

The sum of three numbers is 24. Twice the middle number is 2 more than the largest number, and the largest number is equal to th
harina [27]

Answer:

  • x = 5, y = 7, z = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Let the numbers be x, y and z</u>

  • x + y + z = 24
  • 2y = z + 2
  • z = x + y

<u>Solving by substitution:</u>

  • x + y + z = z + z = 24
  • 2z = 24
  • z = 12

  • 2y = z + 2
  • 2y = 12 + 2
  • 2y = 14
  • y = 7

  • z = x + y
  • x = z - y
  • x = 12 - 7 = 5

<u>The answer:</u>

  • x = 5, y = 7, z = 12

- 10x - 11 = -12x + 21​
Helen [10]
-10x=-12x + 21 + 11
-10x= -12 + 32
-10x + 12x = 32
2x = 32
X = 32/2
