Answer:
x = - 2 or x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3x² - 9x - 30 = 0 ← in standard form
Divide all terms by 3
x² - 3x - 10 = 0
To factor the quadratic
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 10) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 3)
The factors are - 5 and + 2, since
- 5 × 2 = - 10 and - 5 + 2 = - 3, thus
x² - 3x - 10 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 2) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

Answer:
y = -5/4x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the line we are supposed to find is parallel to y = -5/4x - 5 that means they are going to have the same slope. The line we are looking for is of the following type: y = -5/4 x + b
Since it passes through the point (-8,4):
4 = -5/4 * (-8) + b <=>
4 = -2 + b <=>
4 + 2 = b <=>
b = 6
Hence the line is going to be: y = -5/4x + 6
Answer:
y = 8/5x
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm assuming that they're asking for the equation in point-slope form.
The formula is y=mx+b where:
m = slope
b = y intercept
However, the y intercept is just (0,0) so b = 0
To find the slope we already have 2 given points: (0,0) and (5,8)
To find slope you do rise/run and you get 8/5
Substitute the slope & y intercept in the formula:
y = 8/5x
Let me know if I'm wrong!!
