Answer:

The Answer is: The y intercept form for a line that is parallel to the given equation and passes through the given point is: y = 1/2x + 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a point: (4, 8)

Given and equation:

y = 1/2x - 3

Write an equation parallel that passes through the point (4, 8).

Start with the point-slope form of the equation, use the slope m = 1/2 from the given equation:

y - 8 = 1/2(x - 4)

Solve for y to get the slope intercept form:

y - 8 = 1/2x - 2

y = 1/2x - 2 + 8

y = 1/2x + 6

Proof:

Solve for f(x) when x = 4

f(4) = 1/2x + 6

= 1/2(4) + 6

= 2 + 6 = 8, giving the point (4, 8)

You are selling tickets to a play. You have sold (3t+2) tickets for $5 each and (2t+5) tickets for $7 each. Write an expression

aliya0001 [1]

Given that the number of tickets that are sold for $5 is (3t+2) tickets.

The number of tickets that are sold for $7 is (2t+5) tickets.

We need to determine the expression that represents the total number of tickets sold and the simplified expression.

<u>Total number of tickets sold:</u>

The expression for (3t+2) tickets sold for $5 is given by

$5(3t+2)$

The expression for (2t+5) tickets sold for $7 is given by

$7(2t+5)$

The expression for the total number of tickets sold is given by

$5(3t+2)+7(2t+5)$

Thus, the expression that represents the total number of tickets sold is $5(3t+2)+7(2t+5)$

<u>Simplified expression:</u>

We need to simplify the expression $5(3t+2)+7(2t+5)$

Hence, let us multiply the terms within the bracket.

Thus, we get;

$15t+10+14t+35$

Adding the like terms, we have,

$29t+45$

Thus, the simplified expression is $29t+45$

Use synthetic division to show that the number given to the right of the equation is a solution of the equation. Then solve the

AysviL [449]

Answer:

$x = 2 \: or \: x = - 2 \: or \: x = - \frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given polynomial equation is

$2 {x}^{3} + {x}^{2} - 8x - 4 = 0$

We perform the synthetic division as shown in the attachment by dividing by x-2.

This gives a remainder of 0 and a quotient of

$2 {x}^{2} + 5x + 2$

This means the polynomial equation becomes:

$(x - 2)(2 {x}^{2} + 5x + 2) = 0$

We factor the quadratic term by splitting the middle term;

$(x - 2)(2 {x}^{2} + 4x +x + 2) = 0$

$(x - 2)(2 x(x+ 2) +1(x + 2) )= 0$

Collect common factors again:

$(x - 2)((x+ 2)(2x + 1) = 0$

The solution is:

$x = 2 \: or \: x = - 2 \: or \: x = - \frac{1}{2}$
