Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
What you are trying to do is isolate the variable x. For you to do that you have to first simplify the left side of the equation and then you solve for x.
Hey there :)
( 5y + 9 )( 6y - 1 )
We need to use FOIL to expand, that is
First Terms
Outer Terms
Inner Terms
Last Terms
First Outer Inner Last
( 5y )( 6y ) + ( 5y )( - 1 ) + 9 ( 6y ) + 9 ( - 1 )
30y² - 5y + 54y - 9
Combine, if any, the like-terms
30y² + 49y - 9
The value could be rewritten as 2(x+4)
Answer: Period = 4
Amplitude = 3
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Period is the interval of one "cycle" before the pattern repeats.
If you notice that when x = 0, y = -4.
When does the pattern repeat (reach -4 again)?
Answer: when x = 4.
So the interval of one "cycle" is 4 units --> Period = 4.

Answer:
1. No, Joe is not correct
2. 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: b and c are parallel lines
To find:
1. whether the given statement is correct or not
2. 
Solution:
1.
Sum of two angles that form a linear pair is equal to 
(linear pair)

So, Joe is not correct
2.
If two lines are parallel then alternate interior angles are equal.
As b and c are parallel lines,
(alternate interior angles)
