Answer:
x = 1/2 or 2
Step-by-step explanation:
You can factor this as ...
2x^2 -4x -x +2 = 0 . . . rewrite the middle term to enable factoring
2x(x -2) -1(x -2) = 0 . . . . factor by grouping
(2x -1)(x -2) = 0 . . . . factor out (x -2)
x = 1/2, 2 . . . . . . values of x that make the factors zero

Answer:
y = 7/5 x + 31
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope, we need to use the formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m =(-4-17)/(5- -10)
= -21/(5+10)
= 21/15
Divide the top and bottom by 3.
= 7/5
The slope is 7/5.
Using the point slope form of the equation,
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y-17 = 7/5 (x--10)
y-17 = 7/5(x+10)
Distribute the 7/5 ths.
y-17 = 7/5 x + 7/5*10
y-17 = 7/5 x +14
Add 17 to each side
y = 7/5 x + 14 + 17
y = 7/5 x + 31
This is in slope intercept form, with the slope being 7/5 and the y intercept of 31
