5x - 4y = 12
-4y = -5x + 12
y = 5/4x - 3....slope here is 5/4. A parallel line will have the same slope

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 5/4
(0,-15)....x = 0 and y = -15
now we sub and find b, the y int
-15 = 5/4(0) + b
-15 = b

so ur parallel equation is : y = 5/4x - 15

What are the zeros of the function f(x) = (3x^2 + 9x + 6) / (3x - 6) ?

cricket20 [7]

3x^2 + 9x + 6 = 0
3x^2 + 3x + 6x + 6 = 0
3x(x + 1) + 6(x + 1) = 0
(3x + 6)(x + 1) = 0
3x + 6 = 0 and x + 1 = 0
3x = -6 and x = -1
x = -2 and x = -1

Find four numbers that form a geometric progression such that the third term is greater than the first by 12 and the fourth is g

olchik [2.2K]

If $x$ is the first number in the progression, and $r$ is the common ratio between consecutive terms, then the first four terms in the progression are

$\{x,xr,xr^2,xr^3\}$

We want to have

$\begin{cases}xr^2-x=12\\xr^3-xr=36\end{cases}$

In the second equation, we have

$xr^3-xr=xr(r^2-1)=36$

and in the first, we have

$xr^2-x=x(r^2-1)=12$

Substituting this into the second equation, we find

$xr(r^2-1)=12r=36\implies r=3$

So now we have

$\begin{cases}9x-x=12\\27x-3x=36\end{cases}\implies x=\dfrac32$

Then the four numbers are

$\left\{\dfrac32,\dfrac92,\dfrac{27}2,\dfrac{81}2\right\}$
