2. y=2x+3
When x =0 and y= something, the 'something' is your y-intercept which is b in the y=mx+b formula. Then we look at what is changed in the x and y value to determine the m part. the x increase by 1 and y increase by 2 so the m part is 2.
3. y=-7x
Same as the last one, there is no y-inter this time because the y=0 when x=0/ So the y deceased by 7 each time and x incease by 1 so it is -7 for the m part.
Answer:
x = - 5, x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = x² + x - 20
To find the zeros equate f(x) to zero, that is
x² + x - 20 = 0
Consider the factors of the constant term ( - 20) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term ( + 1)
The factors are + 5 and - 4, since
5 × - 4 = - 20 and + 5 - 4 = + 1, hence
(x + 5)x - 4) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5
x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4
Multiply using the distributive property so it would be 5x+60
