Equations:
b = 2a + 1
a * b = 36 --> a * (2a + 1) = 36 --> 2a^2 + a - 36 = 0
Factor: 
(2a + 9)(a - 4) = 0
2a + 9 = 0 --> a = -9/2 = -4.5
a - 4 = 0 --> a = 4
Assuming a is an integer, then a = 4 so b = 2(4) + 1 = 9
Answer: 4 and 9

Honestly, this one works out to be a quadratic (which I don't really feel like going into detail) . . . so instead, since this one is fairly simple to think about, I'll simply try "trial and error" . . .

Possible combinations:
1 × 36 = 36
2 × 18 = 36
3 × 12 = 36
4 × 9 = 36
6 × 6 = 36

Obviously, multiply 4 × 2 = 8 . . . and 9 is one more than 8, which is 2 times the first number, 4 . . . so that's your answer . . .

the numbers are 4 and 9

LINE A
y-intercept : 3
x-intercept: 3
Rate of change: x (because 3/3 equals 1 and 1 times x is the same as x by itself)

Line B
y-intercept: 2
x intercept: -2
rate of change : x (because 1/1 is 1 and 1 times x is the same as x by itself)

Line C
y-intercept: -4
x intercept: 2
rate of change: 2

Line A: Equation F
Line B: Equation D
Line C: Equation E

Extra Notes:

y=mx + b is the slope intercept equation.
M is the slope
B is the y intercept
X and Y are the coordinates

To find slope, you can always use y2-y1/x2-x1 or even determine the slope on the graph by using rise over run and simplifying when possible.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

-3 + 2x = 11

(group like terms)

2x = 11 + 3

2x = 14

(divide both sides by 2 to make x stand alone)

2x/2 = 14/2

x = 7
