Step-by-step explanation:
An example : x² + 1 = 0....
y = mx + b
To find the slope(m), you use the slope formula:
You plug in the points into the equation.
The slope is 0
y = 0x + b
Any number multiplied by 0 is 0. So:
y = b
To find b, you plug in the y value of either of the points.
-4 = b
Your equation is:
y = -4 (This is a horizontal line)
Because there are no parentheses, I'm assuming you're asking for how to factor this using the GCF, which can be done like so:
9−12x+6y
Factor a 3 out of this expression.
3(3 - 4x + 2y)
The expression has been simplified using the distributive property in reverse.
If you would like to know Mike's tax, you can calculate this using the following steps:
a market value ... 310000
the property ... 40% of the market value = 40% * 310000 = 40/100 * 310000 = 124000
the tax rate ... 145.10 per 1000 of assessed valuation
145.10 ... 1000 of assessed valuation
x ... 124000 of assessed valuation
____________________________
145.10 * 124000 = 1000 * x /1000
x = 145.10 * 124000 / 1000
x = 17992.4 (Mike's tax)
The correct result would be: Mike's tax is 17992.4.
