Answer:

<h2>           y = -⁵/₂x - 12 </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation is y - y₀ = m(x - x₀), where (x₀, y₀) is any point the line passes through and m is the slope:

m = -⁵/₂

(-4, -2)    ⇒   x₀ = -4,  y₀ = -2

The point-slope form of the equation:

y + 2 = -⁵/₂(x + 4)

So:

y + 2 = -⁵/₂x - 10         {subtract 2 from both sides}

y = -⁵/₂x - 12             ←  the slope-intercept form of the equation

Select the correct answer. One factor of the polynomial 213 3r2 – 3x + 2 is (t – 2), which expression represents the other facto
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

(x - 2)(x + 1)(2x -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We use synthetic division as a tool for factoring the given expression.  The coefficients of the terms given are {2, -3, -3, 2}.  If x - 2 is a factor of this expression, then 2 is a root.  We perform synthetic division as follows:

2   /    2     -3      -3     2

                  4       2     -2

    -------------------------------

          2      1        -1      0

Next, we determine whether or not (2x - 1)(x + 1) represents the remaining factor(s).  Using -1 as divisor, we get:

-1    /     2     1     -1

                   -2    1

     ---------------------

             2     -1     0

Since the remainder is zero, x + 1 must be a factor and (2x - 1) the third factor.  Answer D is correct.

How long is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with an 8 cm leg and a 15 cm leg?
vichka [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypotenuse² = (Leg 1)² + (Leg 2)²

= (8)² + (15)² = 289

Hence the hypotenuse is 17cm.
