Answer:

a = - 4, b = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand the left side, then compare the coefficients of like terms.

- 3(2x² + ax + b)

= - 6x² - 3ax - 3b, compare to - 6x² + 12x - 15

Compare coefficients of x- terms

- 3a = 12 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

a = - 4

Compare constant terms

- 3b = - 15 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

b = 5

Natalka [10]

Answer:

a graph that connects 3 points connected by a straight line that passes through (5, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph is the representation of numerical data by one or more lines that give visibility to the relationship between the data. Understanding graphics today is an essential task, as they are very present in our daily lives, whether in newspapers, magazines, the internet, etc.

If a teacher asks each student to take a piece of graph paper containing a graph, study the graph and tell which graph represents graphs of equivalent proportions. The student who has a graph that connects 3 points connected by a straight line passing through (5, 0) is the student who should speak.
