D. -4/3

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

9x2+24x+20=4

Step 1: Subtract 4 from both sides.

9x2+24x+20−4=4−4

9x2+24x+16=0

Step 2: Factor left side of equation.

(3x+4)(3x+4)=0

Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.

3x+4=0 or 3x+4=0

x= −4 /3

What is the y-intercept of this function?<br> f(x) = 2(x - 7)2 – 32

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

We are given the following function and want to find the y-intercept:

$f(x)=2(x-7)^2-32$

Just substitute the value x=0 into the equation to find the value of the y-intercept:

$y=2(0-7)^2-32$

Simplify

$=2(49)-32$

Simplify again

$=66$

Since the value of f(x), or y, when x=0 is 66, the y-intercept of this function is 66.

Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

Solve each system by elimination. substitution by multiplication

umka2103 [35]

M = 135/19 and n = -5/19

You have to give them like terms so that when you eliminate they cancel out and you can solve. The easiest way to do so is by multiplying the top equation by -4 and the bottom by 3.
