Answer: y+2=3(x+1)

so the first box you would put 2 and then the second box you would put 3!

There are two ways to equate a straight line. We first have y=mx+b. Then, we have (y-y₁)=m(x-x₁). Both work fine and have similar variables, but the numbers are mixed around a bit. Your equation clearly shows the second form of equation. As our equation has x-x₁ on the right, we can notice that x+1 must mimic that, so x+1=(x-x₁). As x-(-1)=x+1, we can only assume that x is -1. Looking at the points given to us, y must be -2, so we have y-(-2)=y+2, so 2 fills in the leftmost open box. To find the slope, or m, we must take

\frac{(y_{1} -y_{2})}{(x_{1} -x_{2})} from points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂). It doesn't matter which point is (x₁, y₁) , but it matters that the y₁ corresponds to the x₁. Thus, we have our slope as \frac{-2-10}{-1-3} =\frac{-12}{-4} =3

A rectangle has an area of x^2-11x+30 and the length of x-5. What is the width?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

A = L x W

A / L = W

x^2-11x+30 / x -5  = W (Simplify the numerator)

(x - 6) x ( x - 5) / x - 5  = W     (Cancel the similar ones which is (x - 5) )

x - 6 = W

Hope that helps
