Answer:

The slope is −23

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the intercepts to graph the line. The graph of 2x + 3y = 12 crosses the x-axis at (6, 0), so its x-intercept is 6. The graph of 2x + 3y = 12 crosses the y-axis at (0, 4), so its y-intercept is 4.

Jose can paint an entire house in seven hours and brandon can paint the same house in eight hours. Write an equation that can be

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

t/8 + t/7 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question that,

time require for Jose to paint the house = 7 hours

time require for Brandon to paint the house = 8 hours

Suppose t means Full house painted.

<h3>To solve the question we have to figure out how much each of them can paint in ONE hour.</h3>

7 hours----t

1 hour ---- t/7

8 hours----t

1 hour ---- t/8

<h3>Equation</h3>

t/8 + t/7 = 1 (in one hour)

(7t + 8t)/8(7) = 1

15t/56 = 1

15t = 56

t = 56/15

t = 3.73 hours

If (x + 1)(x-3) = 5, then which of the following statements is true?

bixtya [17]

Answer:

x=−2 or x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

x2−2x−3=5

Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides.

x2−2x−3−5=5−5

x2−2x−8=0

Step 3: Factor left side of equation.

(x+2)(x−4)=0

Step 4: Set factors equal to 0.

x+2=0 or x−4=0

x=−2 or x=4

Suppose triangle ABC will be dilated using the rule . What will be the distance from the center of dilation, Q, to the image of

Blababa [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of dilation is $D_{Q,\frac{2}{3}}.$ This means that each distance QX' is equal to $\dfrac{2}{3}QX,$ where X is initial point and X' is its image after dilation.
