First, find the slope (m) = 
= 
= 
= 
Now plug in ONE of the points and the slope into the point-slope equation:
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁); where (x₁, y₁) is the chosen point.
y - 5 = (x - 1) (I used (1,5) as the chosen point)
3(y - 5) = x - 1
3y - 15 = x - 1
3y -14 = x
-14 = x - 3y → x - 3y = -14
Answer: x - 3y = -14
The form (x - p)^2 = q is the form that completing the square will leave us with.
---Add 5 to both sides
x^2 - 8x = 5
---Divide the b term by 2, and square it. Then, add that number to both sides.
-8/2 = -4
(-4)^2 = 16
x^2 - 8x + 16 = 5 + 16
x^2 - 8x + 16 = 21
---Factor!
(x - 4)^2 = 21
p = 4
q = 21
Hope this helps!! :)
This can be factored into (2t - 9)(t + 7)
Answer:
6x + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute the 4 first. Now you have 4x + 12 + 2x. 4x + 2x are like terms and therefore they can be added. Your final simplified answer is therefore 6x + 12.
Answer: First, draw and label a number line. Then plot the five values that are given above the line. Draw a box from the lower quartile to the upper quartile, with a line dividing it at the median. Then draw lines from the minimum and maximum values connecting to the box to form the whiskers.
