Answer:

y

Step-by-step explanation:

Just use the formula...,

; y - y(coordinate) = slope × [ x - x(coordinate)]

; where we firstly have to calculate the slope...,

; (8 - 2)/(4 - 6) = -3

Then substitute into the formula using point(4, 8)...and you can also use the other point if you wish to

; y - 8 = (-3)(x - 4)

; y - 8 = -3x + 12

Hence the equation of the line....,

; y = -3x + 20

Figure FCDE has been dilated to create to create F’C’D’E’. What is the dilation scale factor?
KiRa [710]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

This question requires an attachment. Since there is none, I'll give a general explanation and proceed to answer the question with the attached figure.

To calculate the scale factor.

First, take the measurement of any of the original length. i.e. F, C, D or E

Next, take the measurement of any of the dilated length. i.e. F', C', D' or E'

Then, divide the dilated length by the original length.

i.e.

Scale\ Factor = \frac{F'}{F} = \frac{C'}{C'}=\frac{D'}{D}=\frac{E'}{E}

To further explain; take the attachment as a point of reference.

We have that:

FC = 3\ units

F'C' = 9\ units

Scale\ Factor = \frac{F'C'}{FC}

Scale\ Factor = \frac{9}{3}

Scale\ Factor = 3

Jim weighs 30 pounds less than Tom, and together they weigh 210 pounds. Let n = Tom's weight in pounds.
zlopas [31]

The equation that represents the given problem is (n-30) + n = 210. The correct option is the first option (n-30) + n = 210

<h3>Linear equation</h3>

From the question, we are to write an equation for the given problem

From the given information,

n = Tom's weight in pounds

If Jim weighs 30 pounds less than Tom

Then,

Jim weighs (n - 30)

Thus,

The sum of their weight is

(n-30) + n

∴ (n-30) + n = 210

Hence, the equation that represents the given problem is (n-30) + n = 210. The correct option is the first option (n-30) + n = 210

Which statement best describes the equation (x + 5)2 + 4(x + 5) + 12 = 0?
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Option 1 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation (x + 5)^2 + 4(x + 5) + 12 = 0

we have to choose the best statement describes the above equation.

(x + 5)^2 + 4(x + 5) + 12 = 0  →  (1)

As, the highest degree of its monomials i.e individual terms with non-zero coefficients is 2.

⇒ Degree of above equation is 2.

hence, the given equation is quadratic equation.

The general form of quadratic equation is

ax^2+bx+c

In variable u: u^2+u+c=0  →  (2)

Now, compare equation (1) with (2), we say that

The equation is quadratic in form because it can be rewritten as a quadratic equation with u substitution u = (x + 5).

Option 1 is correct.
