Answer:
A linear equation in the slope-intercept form is written as:
y = a*x + b
Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Now, we know that the rate of change (the slope) is -5
Then we just replace a by -5
y = -5*x + b
Now we also know that this line passes through a point, and the point is (3, 0)
This means that the point (3, 0) is a solution for the line equation, so when x = 3, we also have y = 0.
Replacing these values in our equation we get:
0 = -5*3 + b
0 = -15 + b
15 = b
Now we know the value of b, so we can replace it in the line equation to get:
y = -5*a + 15
Which is the complete equation of the line.
Answer:
-8, -7
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=x^2+15x+56
0 =x^2+15x+56
What two numbers multiply together to make 56 and add together to 15
7*8 = 56
7+8=15
0 = (x+8) (x+7)
Then use the zero product property
x+8 =0 x+7 =0
x+8-8 =0-8 x+7-7 =0-7
x=-8 x=-7
The answer to your question is x=3
