The first step is to solve (x plus 3) since we use the PEMDAS when solving equations. We go in order of letter. P stands for parentheses which is the first step to solve.

Answer:

A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{7x+6}{2}\leq 3x+2 < ==multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\2(\frac{7x+6}{2}\leq 3x+2)\\\\7x+6\leq6x+4 < ==subtract\ -6x\ from\ both\ sides\ \\-6x \ \ -6x\\\\x+6\leq4 < ==subtract\ 6\ from\ both\ sides\\-6 \ \ \ -6\\\\x\leq-2 < ==answer\ should\ be\ anything\ less\ than\ or\ equal\ to\ -2

Now, look at your answer choices, which options are less than or equal to -2?

x ≤ -2, Check your answers:

A. -3 ≤ -2?

This statement is correct (-3 is < -2)

B. -2 ≤ -2 <== our original answer

This statement is correct (-2 is = to -2)

C. -1 ≤ -2

This statement is incorrect (-1 is > -2, not ≤ -2)

D. 0 ≤ -2

This statement is incorrect (0 is > -2, not ≤ -2)

E. 1 < -2

This statement is incorrect (1 is > -2, not ≤ -2)

Therefore, the correct options are A and B

Hope this helps!

Write the equation with both x= 8 and x= -8 as solution
nlexa [21]

Answer:

y = x^2 - 64

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can use the factored form of a Quadratic to find an equation with 8 and -8 as our solution.

<h3>Factored Form: y = a(x - h)(x - k)</h3>

The value in each parenthesis should be 0. So 8 and -8 can be flipped and used for h and k.

  • y = a(x - h)(x - k)
  • y = a(x - 8)(x+ 8)

This will give roots 8 and -8 for x.

  • y = 1(x - 8)(x + 8)\\
  • y = x^2 - 64

A possible equation is y = x^2 - 64.

A line passes through the point, (−8,7) and has a slope of −5/4. Please help...
o-na [289]

Answer:

5x + 4y + 12 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the point-slope equation of a straight line:  y - k = m(x -  h):

Here we are given the point (h, k):  (-8, 7) and the slope m = -5/4.  Inserting this info into the equation give above, we get:        y - 7 = (-5/4)(x + 8).

We must put this equation into "standard form" Ax + By + C = 0.

Multiply all three terms by 4 to remove fractions:  4y - 28 = -5(x + 8), or

4y - 28 + 5x + 40 = 0

Rearranging these terms, we get 5x + 4y + 12 = 0, which is the desired equation in standard form.
