Answer:

x = 3, 5

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

  1. Brackets
  2. Parenthesis
  3. Exponents
  4. Multiplication
  5. Division
  6. Addition
  7. Subtraction
  • Left to Right  

Equality Properties

  • Multiplication Property of Equality
  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtract Property of Equality

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Terms/Coefficients/Degrees
  • Standard Form: ax² + bx + c = 0
  • Multiple Roots
  • Factoring
  • Completing the Square: -b/(2a)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

x² - 8x + 15 = 0

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 15 on both sides:                     x² - 8x = -15
  2. Complete the Square [Addition Property of Equality]:                                 x² - 8x + 16 = -15 + 16
  3. [Complete the Square] Simplify:                                                                   (x - 4)² = 1
  4. [Equality Property] Square root both sides:                                                  x - 4 = ±1
  5. [Addition Property of Equality] Add 4 on both sides:                                   x = 4 ± 1
  6. Evaluate:                                                                                                          x = 3, 5

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

  • 1) y = (-2/3)x +2/3
  • 2) y = (6/5)x -23/5
  • 5) y = (-1/6)x +4/3
  • 6) y = x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

A simple, mechanical way to do these (perpendicular lines) is ...

  • replace any constant with 0
  • swap the x- and y-coefficients, negating one
  • for point (h, k), replace x with (x-h) and y with (y-k)
  • solve for y (to get slope-intercept form)

1) 3x -2y = 0 . . . . . step 1

... 2x +3y = 0 . . . . step 2

... 2(x -1) +3(y -0) = 0 . . . . step 3

... 2x -2 = -3y . . . . eliminate parentheses, subtract 3y

... y = (-2/3)x +2/3 . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

2) 6(x -3) -5(y +1) = 0 . . . . after step 3

... 6x -23 = 5y . . . . . . . . . . simplify, add 5y

... y = (6/5)x - 23/5 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

5) (x+4) +6(y-2) = 0 . . . . . after step 3

... x -8 = -6y . . . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 6y

... y = (-1/6)x +4/3 . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

6) (y +5) = (x +3) . . . . . . . after step 3

... y = x -2 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 5
