Answer:

y=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

y-3=-2(x+5)

distribute the -2 into the ( )

y -3= -2x -10

cancel to -2x

y- 3 = -2(0) -10

y-3 = -10

+3 +3

y= -7

Hope this helps!!

You may remember that the perimeter of a rectangle is P=2(W+L) where W is the width and L is the length.

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Step-by-step explanation:

So, x=width and the width=13+L. The formula for perimeter is 2(L)+2(W) and the total perimeter in this question is 62 feet. That means 2(L)+2(13+L)=62 feet. Solve for L and that's going to be your length. Add the length plus 13 and you'll have the width. Double check the equation by plugging the width and length back into the equation. (Does that help?)

Which measurement is most accurate to describe the width of a penny?

klasskru [66]

Answer:

19 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

A penny is not that large, and you can fit multiple pennies in the palm of your hand. This means that the only reasonable measurement is 19 mm, (& 8 cm, but that is only if you have really large hands). Therefore, (A) is your choice.

Factor the polynomial, x2 + 5x + 6

patriot [66]

Answer:

Choice b.

$x^{2} + 5\, x + 6 = (x + 3)\, (x + 2)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The highest power of the variable $x$ in this polynomial is $2$ . In other words, this polynomial is quadratic.

It is thus possible to apply the quadratic formula to find the "roots" of this polynomial. (A root of a polynomial is a value of the variable that would set the polynomial to $0$ .)

After finding these roots, it would be possible to factorize this polynomial using the Factor Theorem.

Apply the quadratic formula to find the two roots that would set this quadratic polynomial to $0$ . The discriminant of this polynomial is $(5^{2} - 4 \times 1 \times 6) = 1$ .

$\begin{aligned}x_{1} &= \frac{-5 + \sqrt{1}}{2\times 1} \\ &= \frac{-5 + 1}{2} \\ &= -2\end{aligned}$ .

Similarly:

$\begin{aligned}x_{2} &= \frac{-5 - \sqrt{1}}{2\times 1} \\ &= \frac{-5 - 1}{2} \\ &= -3\end{aligned}$ .

By the Factor Theorem, if $x = x_{0}$ is a root of a polynomial, then $(x - x_0)$ would be a factor of that polynomial. Note the minus sign between $x$ and $x_{0}$ .

The root $x = -2$ corresponds to the factor $(x - (-2))$ , which simplifies to $(x + 2)$ .
The root $x = -3$ corresponds to the factor $(x - (-3))$ , which simplifies to $(x + 3)$ .

Verify that $(x + 2)\, (x + 3)$ indeed expands to the original polynomial:

$\begin{aligned}& (x + 2)\, (x + 3) \\ =\; & x^{2} + 2\, x + 3\, x + 6 \\ =\; & x^{2} + 5\, x + 6\end{aligned}$ .
