Hello!


First of all, we need to find the slope of our line. To do so we divide the difference in the y-values by the difference in the x-values as shown below.


\frac{2-6}{1+3} =-\frac{4}{4}=-1


Therefore, our slope is -1.


Now we plug our slope and a point from our line (1,2) into the slope intercept equation and solve for b.


2=-1(1)+b

2=-1+b

b=3


Now we have our final equation below.


y=-x+3


I hope this helps!

An airplane has a wingspan of 20 feet and a length of 15 feet. If the model of this airplane has a wingspan of 8 inches, what is
Katen [24]

Answer:

The length of the model is 6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The wingspan of the airplane and length of the airplane are a ratio of 4:3

The model is also supposed to be 4:3.

4:3 x 2 = 8:6

Or, 20x12=240

240/8=30

15x12=180

180/30=6.

How many complex roots does the polynomial equation have?<br><br> 3x5−2x+1=0
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer : The given polynomial equation can have 0,2 or 4 complex roots.

Explanation:-

Given polynomial equation is 3x^5-2x+1=0 which is a polynomial of degree 5.

We know that the complex roots always occur in pair ,therefore the number of complex roots in any polynomial must be an even number but less than equal  to the degree of polynomial.

Thus, the given polynomial equation has 4 complex roots.

Y = -3x +10 3x +y = 5 substitution method
spayn [35]

Answer:

no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3x +10

3x +y = 5

Substitute the first equation into the second equation

Let every instance of y in the second equation be replaced with -3x+10

3x+ (-3x+10) = 5

Combine like terms

10 =5

This is never true so there are no solutions

(These are parallel lines with the same slope but different y intercepts)
