x = $\frac{14}{3}$

distribute parenthesis on left side and simplify

4x + 8x - 24 = 4 + 6x

12x - 24 = 4 + 6x ( subtract 6x from both sides )

6x - 24 = 4 ( add 24 to both sides )

6x = 28 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = $\frac{28}{6}$ = $\frac{14}{3}$

Which equation has a graph that passes through the points at (0,5) and (-3,-4)?

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

$y = 3x + 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked the equation of the graph which passes through the points at (0,5) and (-3,-4).

Now, we know that the equation of a straight line passing through the points ( $x_{1},y_{1}$ ) and ( $x_{2},y_{2}$ ) is given by

$\frac{y - y_{1}}{y_{1} - y_{2}} = \frac{x - x_{1}}{x_{1} - x_{2}}$ .

So, in our case ( $x_{1},y_{1}$ ) ≡ (0,5) and ( $x_{2},y_{2}$ ) ≡ (-3,-4)

Therefore, the equation of the straight line will be

$\frac{y - 5}{5 - (- 4)} = \frac{x - 0}{0 - (- 3)}$

⇒ $y - 5 = \frac{9}{3}x$

⇒ $y = 3x + 5$ (Answer)

What are the expressions in factored form? 6x^2 + 4x 4x^2 + 11x + 6 9x^2 - 4

Alexxandr [17]

6x^2 + 4x = 2x(3x + 2)

4x^2 + 11x + 6 = (4x + 3)(x + 2)

9x^2 - 4 = (3x +2)(3x - 2)
