Answer:

C. The cost of a box of cereal

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, we are given the number of 3 boxes of cereal, 2 loaves of bread, and that the total cost is $15. We can see these numbers in the equation, and putting it into context, we see that the 15 is on the right side of the equation, which indicates cash. Therefore, the 3 and 2 are accounted for, but their prices are unknown. X is a placeholder for the unidentified cost of a box of cereal, and we know that it's the boxes of cereal and not the loaves of bread because there are 3 and not 2.

Determine the factors of 3x2 + 10x − 8. (Which is the right answer?)
VMariaS [17]

ANSWER

(3x  - 2)(x + 4)

EXPLANATION

The given quadratic trinomial is

3 {x}^{2}  + 10x - 8

Comparing to the general quadratic trinomial:

a{x}^{2}  + bx  + c

We have a=1, b=10 and c=-8

ac =  3  \times  - 8 = - 24

The factors of -24 that adds up to 10 are -2 and 12.

We split the middle term to obtain;

3 {x}^{2}   + 12x   - 2x- 8

Factor;

3x(x+ 4)  -  2(x + 4)

Factor further;

(3x  - 2)(x + 4)

The last option is correct.

Select the correct answer Which equation represents a line that is perpendicular to line MN?
taurus [48]

Answer:

D. y = 4x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that is perpendicular to the line MN should have a slope that when multiplied by the slope of line MN will result to negative one. Therefore,

Therefore,

m₁ × m₂ = -1

Using the 2 coordinates of MN let's find the slope,

(-7, 6)(5, 3)

Therefore,

m₁ = 3 - 6 / 5 - (-7) = -3 / 12 = - 1 / 4

The equation that represent a line perpendicular to the line MN is

y = 4x - 6 because the slope slope(m₂) is 4.

From our formula,

4 × - 1 / 4 = - 1

So, option D meets the requirement.
