Answer:
y= -2x +1
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>slope- intercept form</u><u>:</u>
y= mx +c, where m us the gradient and c is the y-intercept.
Let's find the value of m first using the gradient formula.
Gradient= 
y= -2x +c
To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates.
When x= -1, y=3,
3= -2(-1) +c
3= 2 +c
c= 3 -2
c= 1
Thus the equation of the line is y= -2x +1.
<span>a2 – b2 = (a + b)(a – b) or (a – b)(a + b).
This is the 'Difference of Squares' formula we can use to factor the expression.
In order to use the </span><span>'Difference of Squares' formula to factor a binomial, the binomial must contain two perfect squares that are separated by a subtraction symbol.
</span><span>x^2 - 4 fits this, because x^2 and 4 are both perfect squares, and they are separated by a subtraction symbol.
All you do here to factor, is take the square root of each term.
√x^2 = x
√4 = 2
Now that we have our square roots, x and 2, we substitute these numbers into the form (a + b)(a - b).
</span>
<span>(a + b)(a - b)
(x + 2)(x - 2)
Our answer is final </span><span>(x + 2)(x - 2), which can also be written as (x - 2)(x + 2), it doesn't make a difference which order you put it in.
Anyway, Hope this helps!!
Let me know if you need help understanding anything and I'll try to explain as best I can.</span>
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = 
The denominator cannot be zero as this would make f(x) undefined.
Equating the denominator to zero and solving gives the value that x cannot be and if the numerator is non zero for this value then it is a vertical asymptote.
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
The equation of the vertical asymptote is x = - 2
5 + 2 = 7
1/4 + 3/4 = 1
7 + 1 = 8
Your answer is 8
