Step-by-step explanation:
the easiest approach with a given point and the slope of the line is the point-slope form :
y - y1 = a(x - x1)
where "a" is the slope, and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.
so, we get
y - -8 = 4(x - -3)
y + 8 = 4(x + 3)
if we need the slope-intercept form
y = ax + b
we now simplify the point-slope form
y + 8 = 4x + 4×3 = 4x + 12
y = 4x + 4
Answer:
x(3y - 1) and (2a - 3)(2a + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
(1)
3xy - x ← factor out x from each term
= x(3y - 1)
(2)
4a² - 9 ← is a difference of squares and factors in general as
a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b) , then
4a² - 9
= (2a)² - 3²
= (2a - 3)(2a + 3)
The Canadian goose flew for 4 hours and the Great blue heron flew for 10 hours
<h3>What is an equation?</h3>
An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.
Let a represent the time flown by the goose and b represent the time flown by the heron. Hence:
a + b = 14 (1)
Also:
20a + 10b = 180 (2)
From equation 1 and 2:
a = 4, b = 10

So you basically add the amount it grew each week. So week one is 2 and 1/2, week two is 2 and 3/4 and week three is 3 and 1/4. to make things simpler, add week two and three which gets you 6inches, then add week one, to get 8 and a half inches.
