Answer:

zeros are ±2

y = x² - 4

this can be factored into (x+2)(x-2)

if you then set each factor equal to zero you will get zeros of ±2

How many solutions does 10+5x=5x+10 have?
Arturiano [62]
Simplifying
10 + 5x = 5x + 10

Reorder the terms:
10 + 5x = 10 + 5x

Add '-10' to each side of the equation.
10 + -10 + 5x = 10 + -10 + 5x

Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
0 + 5x = 10 + -10 + 5x
5x = 10 + -10 + 5x

Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
5x = 0 + 5x
5x = 5x

Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.
5x + -5x = 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0
0 = 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0
0 = 0

Solving
0 = 0
Answer: 0 solutions

Solve the equation. show all work.<br><br> 3x - 10 = 5x + 22
inysia [295]
<span>Simplifying 3x + 10 = 5x + 22 Reorder the terms: 10 + 3x = 5x + 22 Reorder the terms: 10 + 3x = 22 + 5x Solving 10 + 3x = 22 + 5x Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-5x' to each side of the equation. 10 + 3x + -5x = 22 + 5x + -5x Combine like terms: 3x + -5x = -2x 10 + -2x = 22 + 5x + -5x Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0 10 + -2x = 22 + 0 10 + -2x = 22 Add '-10' to each side of the equation. 10 + -10 + -2x = 22 + -10 Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0 0 + -2x = 22 + -10 -2x = 22 + -10 Combine like terms: 22 + -10 = 12 -2x = 12 Divide each side by '-2'. x = -6 Simplifying x = -6</span>

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points A(-2,3) and B(-12,6)?
harina [27]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>- \frac{3}{10}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1}

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

A(-2,3) and B(-12,6)

The slope is

m =  \frac{ 6 - 3}{ - 12 -  - 2}  =  \frac{3}{ - 12 + 2}  \\  =   - \frac{3}{10}

We have the final answer as

- \frac{3}{10}

Hope this helps you

GET 15 POINTS NOWWWWWWWWW!!!!
anzhelika [568]
Slope = 2/5 ; Passes through (-4, -7) ; Point-slope form

point-slope form : y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

Simply plug everything in :)

Remember !! m=slope

y - (-7) = 2/3(x - (-4))

Simplify.

y + 7 = 2/3(x + 4)

*Some teachers want this simplified more so here's the simplest answer : 

y + 7 = 2/3x + 8/3 *
