What is the equation of this line in standard form? (-4, -1) & (1/2, 3)

Mathematics
1 answer:
BabaBlast [244]3 years ago
4 0

bearing in mind that standard form for a linear equation means

• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions

• only the constant on the right-hand-side

• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted

• "x" must not have a negative coefficient

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{\frac{1}{2}}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{3}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{3}-\stackrel{y1}{(-1)}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{\frac{1}{2}}-\underset{x_1}{(-4)}}}\implies \cfrac{3+1}{\frac{1}{2}+4}\implies \cfrac{4}{~~\frac{9}{2}~~}\implies \cfrac{4}{1}\cdot \cfrac{2}{9}\implies \cfrac{8}{9}

\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-1)}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{8}{9}}[x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-4)}]\implies y+1=\cfrac{8}{9}(x+4) \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{9}}{9(y+1)=9\left( \cfrac{8}{9}(x+4) \right)}\implies 9y+9=8(x+4)\implies 9y+9=8x+32 \\\\\\ 9y=8x+23\implies -8x+9y=23\implies 8x-9y=-23

Verify x + 1⁄2 is a factor of P(x)= x2<br> + x -2
kumpel [21]

Answer:

Put p(x)=0.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-1=0 will give x=1/2. This means, If x=1/2 is given to the polynomial p(x), it will give a zero. P(1/2)=0.

HELP I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST AND 20 POINTS TO CORRECT ANSWER-Hunter is rolling the dice to see what the probability of rolling di
Neko [114]

Answer:

My assumption of the probability would be..

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2

1/3 or less

1/5 or more

1/8

Because if your looking for probability, Its asking for the chance that it will be able to roll in a certain number so you have a 1/2 of it landing on one or the other side if it's a 2 sided coin or a 1/3 if you have a 3 sided triangle shaped dice.

How do you find x? Please help
marusya05 [52]
Since you know that DA and DC are equal in length, you can say 2x-3=x+2, when you add 3 to both sides, it becomes 2x=x+5, subtract x from both sides, and you find that x=5
