Cannot solve by completing the square.
a. 4/5 because
the equation to find slope is
y2-y1 divided by x2-x1
which is -5-(-1) divided by -2-3 which is -4/-5 which is 4/5.
Answer:
<u>∗ = 0.4x³</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
(15y + ∗)² = 225y²+12x³y+0.16x⁶
<u>Note:</u>
225y² = 15y * 15y = (15y)²
12x³y = 2 * 15y * 0.4x³
0.16x⁶ = 0.4x³ * 0.4x³ = (0.4x³)²
So, by factoring the right hand side:
225y²+12x³y+0.16x⁶ = (15y + 0.4x³)²
By comparing the left hand side with (15y + 0.4x³)²
<u>So, ∗ should be replaced with the monomial 0.4x³</u>
4(x - 2) + 6 = 2(5x - 6) <em>use distributive property</em>
(4)(x) + (4)(-2) + 6 = (2)(5x) + (2)(-6)
4x - 8 + 6 = 10x - 12
4x - 2 = 10x - 12 <em>add 2 to both sides</em>
4x = 10x - 10 <em>subtract 10 from both sides</em>
-6x = -10 <em>divide both sides by (-6)</em>
x = 10/6
<h3>x = 5/3</h3>
