You said -x + 8 > 6
Subtract 8 from each side: -x > -2
Add 'x' to each side: 0 > -2 + x
Add 2 to each side: 2 > x
Now, test the choices:
A). Can 'x' be 4 ?
No. 2 is not greater than 4 .
B). Can 'x' be 1 ?
Yes. 2 is greater than 1 .
C). Can 'x' be 2 ?
No. 2 is not greater than 2 .
D). Can 'x' be 15 ?
No. 2 is not greater than 15 .
Answer:
C.) A dilation. It got bigger so its a dilation
The correct answer would be

In order to solve for this you must first get the equation equal to 0.
<span>x^2=-5x-3 ----> add 5x to both sides.
x^2 + 5x = -3 ----> add 3 to both sides.
x^2 + 5x + 3 = 0
Now knowing this we can use the coefficients of each one in descending order of power as a, b and c.
a = 1 (because it is the coefficient to x^2)
b = 5</span> (because it is the coefficient to x)
c = 3 (because it is the end number)
Now we can plug these values into the quadratic equation.



And those would be your two answers.
Answer:
2x + 7y + 37
Step-by-step explanation:
9+2(x+7)+7(y+2)
= 9 + 2x + 14 + 7y + 14
= 2x + 7y + 37
Answer: f(x) = 2x - 3
===================================================
We're given f(-1) = -5 and f(5) = 7
This means we know the two points (-1,-5) and (5,7) are on the line.
Find the slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (7-(-5))/(5-(-1))
m = (7+5)/(5+1)
m = 12/6
m = 2
The slope is 2.
Use this along with (x1,y1) to find the equation. We'll use point slope form
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - (-5) = 2(x - (-1))
y + 5 = 2(x + 1)
y = 2x + 2 - 5
y = 2x - 3
f(x) = 2x - 3
