3) Write the equation of the line that passes through the point (3, 0) with a slope of -2.

1 answer:

8 0

Ok
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y intecept
slope=-2
y=-2x+b

we are given the point (3,0)
x=3
y=0 is one solution
input
0=-2(3)+b
0=-6+b
add 6
6=b

y=-2x+6

C

Here is the problem.....√(15x + 10) = 2x+3

to remove the square root, we do the opposite which is to square everything.

(√(15x + 10))² = (2x + 3)² (the square negates the square root)
15x + 10 = (2x +3)(2x + 3) (use the distributive property to continue)
15x + 10 = 4x² + 6x + 6x + 9 (combine like terms)
15x + 10 = 4x² + 12x + 9 (subtract 15x and 10 from each side)
-15x - 10 -15x - 10
0 = 4x² - 3x - 1 (factor completely)
(x - 1) (4x + 1) (set each to equal 0)

x - 1 = 0 4x + 1 = 0
x = 1 4x = -1
x = -1/4

place both into the equation to check for reasonableness...we see the negative number is not reasonable, but the x value of 1 is a solution.
