well kind of, it is the slope which means the rate at which something grows or how fast it is

The "m" in y = mx + b is the <u>slope.</u>

It is the number of units a point goes up, down, left, or right each time. Making the line linear/straight.

m = \frac{rise}{run}

"rise" is the the number of units you go up(+) or down(-), "run" is the number of units you go to the right


For example, if your slope is:

\frac{1}{2}

You are going up 1 unit, and to the right 2 units


3 or \frac{3}{1}

You are going up 3 units, and to the right 1 unit


-\frac{1}{2}

You are going down one unit, and to the right 2 units


-3 or -\frac{3}{1}

You are going down 3 units, and to the right 1 unit

Please help me!!!!!!!! Factor z2 – 3z – 18
Vladimir [108]
First, the factor pairs for 18 are:
1, 18
2, 9
3, 6

Since the middle term is -3, the two factors must be 3 apart. The only pair that is 3 values apart is 3, 6.
Since the middle value is negative, the larger number is negative. This means that the 6 is negative.
z = -6
z = 3

Set each equal to 0;
z = -6
z + 6 = 0

z = 3
z - 3 =0
So your factors are (z+6) and (z-3), or answer B.

Please help! i don't know what to do
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

0.5* sin(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

As well known  sin (2A)= 2sin(A)*cos(A)

As in our case A=x/2  => cos(x/2*sin(x/2)=1/2*sin(x)=0.5*sin(x)
