Give the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line that is perpendicular to –7x – 8y = 12 and contains P(–3, 1)

1 answer:

6 0

∵the line is ⊥ to -7x -8y =12
∴its slope = -(-7/-8)= -7/8
∵it passes through P
∴(y-1)=(-7/8)(x+3)
y-1 = (-7/8)x - 21/8
y = (-7/8)x -13/8

Factor the greatest common factor from the polynomial 3x^2 + 6x -9

ryzh [129]

Answer:

$3(x+3)(x -1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x^2 + 6x -9$

All the terms in this polynomial are divisible by 3. Factor 3 out of this polynomial:

$= 3(x^2 + 2x -3)$

Now, factor inside the parentheses by grouping:

$= 3(x^2 -1x+3x -3)$

We knew to split the +2x up into -1x and 3x because -1 and 3 multiply to get -3, which is the last value in the polynomial.

$= 3(x(x -1)+3(x -1))\\= 3(x+3)(x -1)$

Therefore, the final factored polynomial is $3(x+3)(x -1)$ .
