Answer:
y=-2x + 8 which is the required equation
Which is option C
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Slope = m = -2
Given points are ( -2,12)
Which is
x = -2 and y =12
TO find:
Equation of line passing through these points = ?
Solution:
The point slope form of a line is
y = mx + c
Here we don't know the value of c
To find it
Putting y = 12 , x= -2 and y = -2 in the given equation
y = mx + c
Putting values it becomes
12 = (-2)*(-2) + c
12 = 4 + c
Subtracting 4 from both sides
12-4 = 4 -4 + c
8 = c
Now we have
m = -2 and c= 8
So equation of a line is given by
y = mx + c
Putting value of m and c
y = -2*x + 8
y=-2x + 8 which is the required equation
Answer:
(x−2)(x−4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's factor x2−6x+8
x2−6x+8
The middle number is -6 and the last number is 8.
Factoring means we want something like
(x+_)(x+_)
Which numbers go in the blanks?
We need two numbers that...
Add together to get -6
Multiply together to get 8
Can you think of the two numbers?
Try -2 and -4:
-2+-4 = -6
-2*-4 = 8
Fill in the blanks in
(x+_)(x+_)
with -2 and -4 to get...
(x-2)(x-4)
Hope this helps! Also, if it's no trouble, can I have brainliest? Thanks! :D
