1/4x + 3 = 2x - 5/8

Find least common multiplier of 4x,8 is  8x

Multiply by LCM = 8x

1/4 x * 8 x + 3 * 8 x = 2 x * 8 x - 5/8 * 8 x

Refine:

2 + 24 = 16 x² - 5 x

Subtract 16 x² - 5 x from both sides:

2 + 24 x - ( 16 x² -5 x) = 16 x² - 5 x - (16 x²-5 x)

Refine: - 16 x² - 29 x + 2 = 0

Solving with the quadratic formula :

for a = - 16 , b = 29 and c = 2

x1 = - 29 √ 29² - 4(-16)*2
        -----------------------------
              2 (-16)

x1 = - √ 969  - 29
      ---------------------
                32


x2 = - 29 - √ 29² -4(-16)*2
        -----------------------------
               2(-16)

x2 = √ 969  + 29
      ---------------------
                32

The final solutions to the quadratic equation are:


x1 = - √ 969 - 29
      -------------------
              32

x2 = √ 969 + 29
      -------------------
             32


hope this helps!

Answer:

(-9, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so when you move an image to the right, you are moving along the x-axis, and when you move up, you are moving up the y-axis. So if the altered image is (x,y) and the values are (-5, -1), you reverse what has been done to the image. In this case, since we moved to the right 4 units, we know that means we added 4 to x, so we subtract 4 to get -9. And then, for the y-value, because we added 4, we do the opposite, and subtract 4 to get -5. So the pre-image should be (-9, -5)

Helpppp meeee fassttt pleaseeee

Answer:

 y = -1/3x + 3 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. find the slope of the given line

y2-y1/x2-x1          2 - 4/ 3 + 3 = - 1 / 3

take the opposite of that and there is your slope

step 2. plug in the values to the following equation using the given point:

y - y1 = m ( x - x1 )          y - 4 = - 1/3 ( x + 1 )

step 3. solve for y

y-4 = -1/3(x+1)

-1/3(x) and -1/3(1)  ----> y-4 = -1/3x-1/3

y-4+4 = -1/3x-1/3+4  ---->  y = -1/3x + 3 2/3
