Answer:

y = (-2/3)x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello:

equation is the line is : y = ax+b a is a slope

y = (-2/3)x+b

passing through the point (−3;−1) : -1 =(-2/3)(-3)+b so : b = -3

y = (-2/3)x-3

second solution : you can verify (-3 ; -1) in the equation : y = (-2/3)x-3

Moby sold half his toy car collection, and then bought 12 more cars the next day. He now has 48 toy cars. How many cars did he h

castortr0y [4]

Answer: 72 cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the number of toys that Moby had to start with.

According to the information given in the exercise, Moby sold half his toy car collection. This can be represented with the following expression:

$\frac{1}{2}x$

Then he bought 12 more cars, giving a total amount of 48 toy cars.

Therefore, the equation that represents this situation is the equation shown below:

$x-\frac{1}{2}x+12=48$

Now you must solve for "x" in order to find its value.

You get that this is:

$\frac{1}{2}x+12=48\\\\\frac{1}{2}x=48-12\\\\\frac{1}{2}x=36\\\\x=(36)(2)\\\\x=72$

You combine the numbers that have the same letter attached to them. Then you add or subtract the bumbers from each other to. After that you make the numbers and the numbers with letters into one equation

Step-by-step explanation:

2w+w=3w If theres a letter by itself it means theres a 1.

Find the product. a^4(3a ^2 - 2a + 1)

Vikki [24]

a⁴(3a² - 2a + 1)

We just have to multiply each term inside the parentheses by a⁴ .

 a⁴(3a² ) = 3a⁶

 a⁴( - 2a ) = -2a⁵

 a⁴( 1) = a⁴

Now, just addum up : 3a⁶ - 2a⁵ + a⁴
