I need to find x by factoring but I was absent the day we reviewed and forgot from last year: the question is: If x^2+3x = 9x -8

what is the value of x?

x²+3x = 9x - 8

Subtract 9x on both sides

x² - 6x = -8

Add 8 on both sides

x² - 6x + 8 = 0

Now you need to find the factors of 8(numbers that multiply to equal 8) that add or subtract to -6.

Factors of 8: 1, 2, 4, 8

2 and 4 add up to 6, if they are both negative they equal -6.

(x - 2)(x - 4) = 0

x - 2 = 0

x = 2


x - 4 = 0

x = 4


x = 2, x = 4

The graph represents function 1, and the equation represents function 2:
inessss [21]

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a horizontal line is 0.

It is given that the function 1 is a horizontal line that passing through the y-axis at y = 4.

It means the rate of change of function 1 is 0.

The slope intercept form of a linear function is  1

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

The function 2 is  2

On comparing (1) and (2), we get

The rate of change of function 2 is 8.

The difference between rate of change is

The rate of change of function 2 is 8 more than the rate of change of function 1.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

How would you solve this problem?<br><br> ((2x^12y^3)/(x^10y))^-5
Hatshy [7]
There is no equals sign. Are we looking for x, or y?

Either way, with the -5 exponent outside the parentheses, you can multiply that to each exponent in the fraction to get rid of it.

I'm not sure what you mean by 2x^12y^3. Is it an exponent within another exponent?

Which equation represents the line that passes through the points (-3, 7) and (9,-1)? oy--3x+5 o y=-x-7 o y=zx-7 oy - 12 2x+5​
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>y =  -  \frac{2}{3} x + 5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation we must first find the slope of the line.

So the slope of the line using points (-3, 7) and (9,-1) is

<h3>m =  \frac{ - 1 - 7}{9 + 3}  =  -  \frac{8}{12}  =  -  \frac{2}{3}</h3>

Now we use the formula

<h3>y - y1 = m(x - x1)</h3>

where

m is the slope

( x1 , y1) is any of the points given

So the equation of the line using point

( - 3 , 7) and slope - 2/3 is

<h3>y - 7 =  -  \frac{2}{3} (x + 3) \\ y - 7 =  -  \frac{2}{3} x - 2 \\ y =  -  \frac{2}{3} x - 2 + 7</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>y =  -  \frac{2}{3} x + 5</h3>

Hope this helps you
