The two binomials (3x - 4) and (2x - 3) are the factors of which polynomial?

consider the line y= 2/3x-0. Find the equation of the line that is parallel to this line and passes through the point (8, 4).

tresset_1 [31]

Point-slope form of a line: we need a point (x₀,y₀) and the slope "m".
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)

slope intercept form :
y=m+b

m=slope

If the line is parallel to y=2/3 x-0, the line will have the same slope, therefore the slope will be: 2/3.

Data:
(8,4)
m=2/3

y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
y-4=2/3(x-8)
y-4=2/3 x-16/3
y=2/3 x-16/3+4
y=2/3 x-4/3 (slope intercept form)

Answer: The equation of the line would be: y=2/3 x-4/3.

if we have the next slope "m",then the perendicular slope will be:
m´=-1/m

We have this equation: y=2/3 x+0; the slope is: m=2/3.

The perpendicular slope will be: m`=-1/(2/3)=-3/2

And the equation of the perpendicular line to : y=2/3 x+0, given the point (8,4) will be:

y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
y-4=-3/2 (x-8)
y-4=-3/2 x+12
y=-3/2x + 12+4
y=-3/2x+16

answer: the perpendicular line to y=2/3 x+0 , given the point (8,4) will be:
y=-3/2 x+16

The table below represents a linear function in the equation represents a function. table numbers are X: -1,0,1. f(x): -3,0,3. G

A)
SLOPE OF f(x)
To find the slope of f(x) we pick two points on the function and use the slope formula. Each point can be written (x, f(x) ) so we are given three points in the table. These are: (-1, -3) , (0,0) and (1,3). We can also refer to the points as (x,y). We call one of the points $( x_{1} , y_{1} )$ and another $( x_{2} , y_{2} )$ . It doesn't matter which two points we use, we will always get the same slope. I suggest we use (0,0) as one of the points since zeros are easy to work with.

Let's pick as follows:
$( x_{1} , y_{1} )= (0.0)$
$( x_{2} , y_{2} )= (1.3)$

The slope formula is: $m= \frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{ x_{2}- x_{1} }$
We now substitute the values we got from the points to obtain.
$m= \frac{3-0}{ 1-0 } = \frac{3}{1}=3$

The slope of f(x) = 3

SLOPE OF g(x)
The equation of a line is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. Since g(x) is given in this form, the number in front of the x is the slope and the number by itself is the y-intercept.

That is, since g(x)=7x+2 the slope is 7 and the y-intercept is 2.

The slope of g(x) = 2

B)
Y-INTERCEPT OF g(x)
From the work in part a we know the y-intercept of g(x) is 2.

Y-INTERCEPT OF f(x)
The y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point where the line crosses the y-axis. This point will always have an x-coordinate of 0 which is why we need only identify the y-coordinate. Since you are given the point (0,0) which has an x-coordinate of 0 this must be the point where the line crosses the y-axis. Since the point also has a y-coordinate of 0, it's y-intercept is 0

So the function g(x) has the greater y-intercept

B is the midpoint of ac. Ab = x+9 and bc = 3x-7 find x and ac

natali 33 [55]

To solve this problem, we need to know 2 relationships:

The distance of AC is the sum of AB and BC.

$AC = AB + BC$
