Mathematics

Hey!


To solve this problem we'll divide both sides by -15. Doing this will get x on its own.

<em>Original Equation :</em>
-15x = 240

<em>New Equation {Changed by Dividing Both Sides by -15} :</em>
\frac{-15x}{-15} = \frac{-240}{-15}

Alright, now we simplify solve the equation.

<em>Old Equation :</em>
\frac{-15x}{-15} = \frac{-240}{-15}

<em>Solved {Old Equation Solved} :</em>
x = 16

<em>Now we know that in the equation -15x = -240,</em>  x = 16.

Hope this helps!

You divide -15 on both sides to keep the x alone
-240/ -15=16
A negative divided by a negative is a positive so x=16

Write an equation for the line described. Give the answer in standard form. through (2,6), m= -5​
LiRa [457]

Answer:

  5x +y = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a point and slope, it often works well to start with the point-slope form of the equation for a line:

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

Your point and slope make this ...

  y -6 = -5(x -2)

  y -6 = -5x +10 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  5x +y = 16 . . . . . . . . . add 5x+6 to both sides; your standard form equation

The standard form of the quadratic function f(x) = -3x^2 + 6x - 2 is f(x) = -3x^2 + 6x - 2

<h3>How to represent the quadratic function in standard form?</h3>

The quadratic function is given as

f(x) = -3x^2 + 6x - 2

The standard form of a quadratic function is represented as:

f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c

When both equations are compared, we can see that the function f(x) = -3x^2 + 6x - 2 is already in standard form

Where

a = -3

b = 6

c = -2

Hence, the standard form of the quadratic function f(x) = -3x^2 + 6x - 2 is f(x) = -3x^2 + 6x - 2
