Answer:
y = -3/7x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
2 - 8 / 7 - (-7)
-6/14
= -3/7
y = -3/7x + b
2 = -3/7(7) + b
2 = -3 + b
5 = b
Answer:
7x (times) 8
Step-by-step explanation:
(3x+6)(4x+2)
(3x + 4x)(6 + 2)
7x (times) 8
Answer:
x=-6
Step-by-step explanation:
Follow along:
1. Distribute the -3 to those within the parenthesis.
-3x-6=12
2. Move the whole numbers to one sides, isolate the variable.
-3x=18
3. Divide both sides by -3
x=-6
Remember that the area of a rectangle is the length of the rectangle multiplied by the width of the rectangle.
In this case, we could say (where 
is the area of the rectangle):
Substituting the values the problem gave us for 
and 
, we can find the formula for 
in terms of 
, which is:
The formula for the area of the rectangle would be A(x) = 10x³ - 20x² + 65x.
