The correct answer is y = 1.5x, A.
I am sure it is because I took the K12 test. I used the answer from the other person that answered this, and got it wrong. I reviewed the test, and It says that 1.5x is correct.
3x-5=2x-6
Move 2x to the same side as 3x.
3x-2x = x
X-5=-6
add 5 to the -6.
X = 5-6
X=-1
Answer:
1. y = 9(x+1/2)^2 -13/4
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 9x^2 + 9x – 1
first isolate the x terms
y = 9(x^2 +x) -1
then add 1/4 inside the brackets to make it a perfect square trinomial (half of the coefficient of the x term squared is how we get 1/4)
since we just added 1/4 we need to subtract what we just added to balance the equation. so 1/4 times 9 is 9/4 ( the number we just added to the equation). then you subtract 9/4 outside of the brackets.
y = 9(x^2 +x +1/4) -1 -9/4
then simplify
y = 9(x+1/2)^2 -13/4
Answer:
B. y = -x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes, so the slope of the new line will be -1.
Plug the slope and the given point into y = mx + b to find b:
y = mx + b
3 = -1(-4) + b
3 = 4 + b
-1 = b
Then, plug this and the slope into y = mx + b
y = -x - 1
So, the correct answer is B, y = -x - 1
