Answer:

The second one (answer of 3), but the other ones could've worked, they were just calculated wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's why each one did or didn't work:

First answer- you had the right idea by cancelling out the two in the denominator, however if you're going to divide 2, you have to divide it from everything in the equation. Meaning you would divide 4 by 2 to get 2, and then add the 1 + 2 to get final answer 3.

Second answer- since you added the numerator separately and then did the basic division, this worked.

Third one- similarly to the first one, you would have to also divide the 2 by 2 to get 1, then adding 1 + 2 to get 3.

The difference between two positive integers is 3. If the smaller is added to the square of the larger, the sum is 87.
Komok [63]
Let x be larger integer so x-3 is the smaller
so x^2+ x-3 = 87
x^2 +x -90=0 and factor
(x-9)(x+10)=0
x=9 or x=-10 but x must be positive
so x=9 and smaller number is 6

Write an equation of the line that passes through the points (-9, 4) and (-10,8) in
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

y = -4x - 32

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the slope using rise over run (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Plug in the points:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(8 - 4) / (-10 + 9)

4 / -1

= -4

So, the slope is -4. Plug in the slope and a point into y = mx + b, and solve for b:

y = mx + b

4 = -4(-9) + b

4 = 36 + b

-32 = b

Then, plug in the slope and y intercept into y = mx + b

y = -4x - 32 is the equation of the line
