I think you're trying to say 6x^6-4x^5+9x-6. ^ Is a symbol that means the number after it is an exponent.
First step, find the gcf (greatest common factor) between the first two parts. The gcf of 6x^6-4x^5 is 2x^5.
Now take it out. You get
2x^5(3x-2)
If you expand that equation, you will get 6x^6-4x^5 which is why you know it's correct.
Now do the same for the second half.
The gcf for the second two parts is 3.
3(3x-2)
Notice anything? Yep, in both of them, after you take out the gcf, you get (3x-2)
Now, you combine them into one equation
2x^5(3x-2)+3(3x-2)
Then you do this
(2x^5+3)(3x-2)
That's your factored form.

Solve : <br> 20-9x=11<br> 4(2x+1)=8<br> 5(2x+5)=-15<br> 3(8x+1)=-21
laila [671]
<span>20-9x=11
-9x=11-20
-9x= -9
x= -9/(-9)
x=1


4(2x+1)=8
2x+1=8/4
2x+1=2
2x=2-1
2x=1
x=1/2
x=0.5


5(2x+5)=-15
2x+5= -15/5
2x+5= -3
2x= -3-5
2x= -8
x= -8/2
x=-4

3(8x+1)=-21
8x+1= -21/3
8x+1= -7
8x= -7-1
8x =-8
x= -8/8
x= -1

How would i graph this equation y=3x+1
Kipish [7]

Answer:

(0,1)(1,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Put in any value of x to find y, then you have a coordinate, then plot it

lets say i pick 0 for x

y = 3(0) + 1

y = 1

(0,1)

lets say i also pick 1 for x

y = 3(1)+1

y = 4

You need atleast two points to plot a line, these are two points.
