Answer: Y= -3/4x+13

Step-by-step explanation:

A line passes through the point (8,7) and has a slope of negative 3/4 Write an equation in slope-intercept form for this line.

This is what i get

Slope of a line Y= mx+b

Y= 7

X= 8

M= -3/4

7= -3/4(8)+b

7= -6+b

7+6=b

13=b

Y= -3/4x+13

Which graph represents the function of f(x) = the quantity of 9 x squared plus 9 x minus 18, all over 3 x plus 6

lora16 [44]

Answer:

The answer is the option C

graph of $3x$ minus $3$ , with discontinuity at negative $2$ , negative $9$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$f(x)=\frac{9x^{2}+9x-18}{3x+6}$

Simplify

$f(x)=9\frac{(x^{2}+x-2)}{3(x+2)}$

$f(x)=3\frac{(x^{2}+x-2)}{(x+2)}$

Step 1

Convert to a factored form the numerator

$x^{2}+x-2=0$

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$x^{2}+x=2$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.

$x^{2}+x+0.25=2+0.25$

$x^{2}+x+0.25=2.25$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$(x+0.5)^{2}=2.25$

Square root both sides

$x+0.5=(+/-)1.5$

$x=-0.5(+/-)1.5$

$x=-0.5+1.5=1$

$x=-0.5-1.5=-2$

so

$x^{2}+x-2=(x-1)(x+2)$

Step 2

Simplify the function f(x)

$f(x)=3\frac{(x^{2}+x-2)}{(x+2)}=3\frac{(x-1)(x+2)}{(x+2)}$

The domain of the function f(x) is all real numbers except the number $x=-2$

Because the denominator can not be zero

$f(x)=3\frac{(x-1)(x+2)}{(x+2)}=3(x-1)=3x-3$

$f(x)=3x-3$ ------> with a discontinuity at $x=-2$

$f(-2)=3(-2)-3=-9$

The discontinuity is at point $(-2,-9)$

Simplify x+6/12 over x-8/10 ...?

Kipish [7]

(x + 6) / 12 / (x - 8) / 10 =
(x + 6) 10 / (x - 8) 12 =
(x + 6) 5 / (x - 8) 6

The correct answer is (x + 6) 5 / (x - 8) 6
First you multiply (x+6) by 10 and (x-8) by 12, and then you divide both 10 and 12 by 2.
