2x^2 - 4 = 68
add 4 to both sides
2x^2 = 72
divide both sides by 2
x^2 = 36
find the square root of each sides
x = 6, -6
ANSWER: the positive value of x is 6
The answer would simplify to 1/6.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: y = 1/2x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the equation y=mx +b
Find the slope (m) of the line by finding the difference in y over the difference in x. Or "rise over run".
The y-intercept (b) is 3 (when x is zero, it is y).
