Answer:
x = -3, x = 0 is a extraneous solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Cross-multiply
3x² = 4x² + 3x
Step 2: Isolate <em>x</em>'s
0 = x² + 3x
Step 3: Factor
0 = x(x + 3)
Step 4: Find roots
x = 0, -3
Step 5: Double check work
Plug in both to see if they both work. Only x = 0 should be extraneous. We now have our answer!
The first triangle does. That's the right answer.
Answer:
<h2>slope = -2</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:
<em>y = mx + b</em>
<em>m</em><em> - slope</em>
<em>b</em><em> - y-intercept</em>
<em />
We have the equation:
<em>y = -2x + 6</em>
therefore
<em>m = -2</em>
<em>b = 6</em>
