Answer:

a = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

-12x³+14x²+6x = -2x(ax+1)(2x-3)

<em>Divide both sides by -2x(2x-3)</em>

\frac{-2x(ax+1)(2x-3)}{-2x(2x-3)} = - \frac{12x^{3} }{-2x(2x-3)} + \frac{14x^{2} }{-2x(2x-3)} +\frac{6x}{-2x(2x-3)}

ax+1=3x+1

<em>Subtract 1 from both sides</em>

ax=3x

<em>Divide both sides by x</em>

a=3

How are independent and dependent variables different
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The independent variable is the variable the experimenter changes or controls and is assumed to have a direct effect on the dependent variable. The dependent variable is the variable being tested and measured in an experiment, and is 'dependent' on the independent variable.

Complete the equation of the line through (-6,5) and (-3,-3)
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

y=-8/3x-11 is the equation of the line and the value of y

Step-by-step explanation:

Use point slope form m = y-y1/x-x1, or y-y1=m(x-x1)

Find the slope from the two points (-6,5) and (-3,-3)

m = y2-y1/x2-x1 = -3-5/-3+6 = -8/3

use one point say (-6,5) that passes through the line and the slope to form the equation y-5=-8/3(x+6) rearrange y= -8/3(x+6)+5

y=-8/3x - 48/3 +5 = -8/3x-16+5 = -8/3x-11
