Answer:
the y intercept is 4
and frm that point to another spot on the line you go DOWN one unit (negative)
and two units to positive (to the right) thus the slope is - 1 (down) and 2 positive to the right
-1/2 = slope
y = -1/2 + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Eliminate the x terms: Multiply the second equation by 2
-10x+12y=20
Add it to the first equation
10x-4y=-8
-10x+12y=20
——————-
0x+8y=12
y = 1.5
10x-4(1.5)=-8
10x = -2
x = -1/5

Answer:
x-√6
Step-by-step explanation:
Non-integer powers of the variable disqualifies the expression from being a polynomial. √x -6 has x to the 1/2 power, so that expression is not a polynomial. Polynomials may have any real or complex, rational or irrational coefficients. (We usually study only polynomials with real coefficients.)
x-√6 is a polynomial
