Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
To factor x²-2x-4, you are looking to answer three questions.
1) What pair of numbers multiplies to 4?
2) What pair of numbers multiplies to 1?
3) Do these pairs when multiplied together, add/subtract to the middle term?
To answer (1), our pairs are 2 and 2, 4 and 1. Since there's a negative with 4 at the end (from question one), the signs will be opposite.
To answer (2), only pair multiplies to 1 - 1 and 1. Let's try both pairs from 1.
(x-4)(x+1) The middle term here is -3x. Nope.
(x-1)(x+4). The middle term here is 3x. Nope.
(x-2)(x+2) The middle term is 0x (or no middle term). Nope.
So x²-2x-4 does not factor.
You have to plug in 7 for f and 8 for k making it look like -5(7)-2+8-3(8), now multiply to get the further more, -35-2+8-24, now add or subtract to get -53
Hope this helps
Answer:
22/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope intercept form:
y = mx + b
Where m = slope and b = y-intercept.
By looking at the graph, we can see that the line cuts at 1/2 on the y-axis, therefore eliminating option D.
So now we have:
y = mx + 1/2Next, we'll find the slope.

Plug the coordinates into the formula.

So our slope is 5/8 and the y-intercept is 1/2.
Option A is the answer.
