Answer:

a = -2 or a = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

We want f(a) = a^2 + 7a + 12 = 2. We can subtract 2 from both sides of this equation to get a^2+7a+10=0. We can factor this to get that (a+2)(a+5)=0. When the product of two numbers is equal to zero, one of the numbers must be equal to zero. This means that either a + 2 = 0, in which case a = -2, or a + 5 = 0, in which case a = -5.

Write the equation if the line that passes through (4,5) and has a slope of m=3
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

y = 3x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The <em>point-slope formula</em> for a straight line is

y – y₁ = m(x – x₁)

x₁ = 4; y₁ = 5; m = 3     Substitute the values

y – 5 = 3(x - 4)             Remove parentheses

y – 5 = 3x - 12             Add 5 to each side

     y = 3x - 7

The graph is a straight line with a y-intercept at y = -7 and a slope = 12/4 = 3.

Find the image of (-7,-3) reflected across the x-axis
Korvikt [17]
IF USING GEOMETRY...

x-axis = (x, -y)

Because the x does not have a negative sign the number DOES NOT change to its opposite form, but because the y has a negative sign the number DOES changes to its opposite form (from negative number to positive.)

So... if we use the formula of x-axis, which is (x, -y), the coordinates (-7,-3) would change to (-7, 3)
