The point-slope form: $y-y_0=m(x-x_0)$

$m=\dfrac{1}{2};\ (2;-4)\to x_0=2;\ y_0=-4$

subtitute

$y-(-4)=\dfrac{1}{2}(x-2)\\\\\boxed{y+4=\frac{1}{2}(x-2)}$

Could somebody please help me with this?

For this problem, we are going to use the Remainder Theorem. This says that for $x - n$ to be a factor of a polynomial $p(x)$ , then $p(n) = 0$ . Essentially, it says that $x - n$ is a factor if when you substitute $n$ into the polynomial you get a result of 0.

Thus, in our case, when we substitute $x = 2$ into the polynomial, we should get an answer of 0 if $x - 2$ is a factor of the polynomial. Given this information, we can solve for $c$ :

$p(2) = 2^3 - 4(2^2) + 2c + 2 = 0$

$8 - 16 + 2c + 2 = 0$

$2c - 6 = 0$

$2c = 6$

$c = 3$

The solution is c = 3.

A tennis player keeps track of the number of successful first serves he makes. During the first 8 service points of a game, only

Andru [333]

Answer:

He needs 7 more consecutive successful first serves to raise his first serve percentage to 60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

After n consecutive serves, his total number of serves is going to be n+8, since he has already served 8 times. In the best case, his number of successful first serves is n+2.

His percentage of succesful first serves is the division of the number of succesful first serves divided by the total number of serves. So

$P = \frac{n+2}{n+8}$

We want $P = 0.60$ . So

$0.6 = \frac{n+2}{n+8}$

$n+2 = 0.6*(n+8)$

$n + 2 = 0.6n + 4.8$

$n - 0.6n = 4.8 - 2$

$0.4n = 2.8$

$n = \frac{2.8}{0.4}$

$n = 7$

He needs 7 more consecutive successful first serves to raise his first serve percentage to 60%.

Since p = x² - 7, you can substitute/plug in p for x² - 7

So:

(x² - 7)² - 4x² + 28 = 5

(p)² - 4x² + 28 = 5 You can factor out -4 from (-4x² + 28)

p² - 4(x² - 7) = 5 Plug in p

p² - 4p = 5 Subtract 5

p² - 4p - 5 = 0 Your answer is C
