A) 2 and B) 9
Coefficients are the numbers in front of a variable. The x and y wouldn’t be considered coefficients.
Answer: y=-2/5x+2
Solving Steps:
2x+5y=10 - Move the variable to the right
5y=10-2x - Divide both sides by five
y=2-2/5x - Reorder the terms
y=-2/5x+2
The third graph represents a function.
In a function, every input (x value) has <em>exactly</em> one output (y value). If even a single input has zero or two outputs, the graph does not represent a function.
A good way of testing this is using a vertical line. As you move a vertical line from left to right across a graph, it should always be touching exactly one point on the graphed line.
In this case, every graph fails this vertical line test except for the third graph, so the third graph represents a function.
Part A you would just distribute your 3 to your X and your 5. After doing that you would get 3x+15+x=4x. Next you would combine like terms, meaning combine your x's together that is on the same side of your equal sign. So you would add 3x and x. When finished with that you would get, 4x+15=4x. You would then subtract your 4x on both sides of your equal sign. You then would get 15=0 which is no solution.
Part B you would distribute your 4 to your 1 and -x. After doing this your equation should then look like 4-4x=5x+8. Next you would try to get your like terms together. You would add 4x on both sides of your equal sign. Your equation should then look like 4=9x+8. Next you would subtract your 8 on both sides of the equal sign because your getting your terms together. Your equation should then look like, -4=9x. This answer would be one solution.
Part C you would combine your like terms, meaning add your 2x and x together to get your equation looking like, 3x+5=5+3x. You can tell just by looking at this equation it's going to be a infinite number of solutions.
Hope this helps! (:
The answer is <span>c. 16x2 + 24xy + 9y2.
Since we need trinomial (three term expression) choices a and b are incorrect because they have only two terms.
So, our square trinomial is a</span>² + 2ab + b² or a² - 2ab + b²
a² + 2ab + b² = (a + b)²
a² - 2ab + b² = (a - b)²
Let's check choices c and d:
c) 16x² + 24xy + 9y²
a² = 16x²
a² = (4x)²
a = 4x
b² = 9y²
b² = (3y)²
b = 3y
a² + 2ab + b² = (4x)² + 2 * 4x * 3y + (3y)² = 16x² + 24xy + 9y²
CORRECT
d) 49x² - 70xy + 10y²
a² = 49x²
a² = (7x)²
a = 7x
b² = 10y²
b² = (y√10)²
b = y√10
a² + 2ab + b² = (7x)² + 2 * 7x * y√10 + (y√10)² = 49x² + 14xy√10 + 10y²
INCORRECT
So, c) is correct answer
