Answer:

18x - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the common factor of 9 first which gives $9(4x^{2} -1)$

$4x^{2} - 1$ is the difference of two squares and factors into (2x + 1)(2x - 1)

The complete factorization of $36x^{2} -9$ is 9(2x + 1)(2x - 1).

So 9(2x - 1) = 18x - 9 is a factor of the original expression.

PLZ HELP...Enter in standard form the equation of the line passing through the given point and having the given slope.

Alenkinab [10]

Standard form for the equation of the line is

$$y=-\frac{2}{3} x-\frac{25}{3}$

Solution:

Given point is (2, –5).

slope of the line m = $-\frac{2}{3}$

Here, $x_1=2, y_1=-5$

Equation of a line passing through the point:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$$y-(-5)=-\frac{2}{3} (x-(-5))$

$$y+5=-\frac{2}{3} (x+5)$

$$y+5=-\frac{2}{3} x-\frac{10}{3}$

Subtract 15 from both sides of the equation.

$$y+5-5=-\frac{2}{3} x-\frac{10}{3}-5$

$$y=-\frac{2}{3} x-\frac{25}{3}$

Standard form for the equation of the line is

$$y=-\frac{2}{3} x-\frac{25}{3}$
