Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a line is y = mx+c

m is the slope

c is the intercept

Given

Slope = -3

Get the intercept c;

Substitute m = -3 and (1, -9) into y = mx+c

-9 = -3(1) + c

-9  = -3 + c

c = -9 + 3

c = -6

The equation becomes

y = -3x + (-6)

y = -3x-6

f(x) = -3x-6

The zero of f occurs at f(x) = 0

0 = -3x-6

3x = -6

x = -6/3

x = -2

Hence the zero of the function is -2

in the ambrose family the ages of the three children are three consecutive even integers . if the age of the youngest child is r
klemol [59]

The ages are consecutive even numbers.
The youngest child is  (x+3) years old.
Every even number is 2 more than the one before it.
So the three ages are

           (x + 3),  (x + 5),  and  (x + 7).

Their sum is    x+3  +  x+5  +  x+7  =  3x + 15

But we're told that their sum is  42, so we can write

                                              3x + 15 = 42  <== the equation

Subtract 15 from each side:  3x         =  27

Divide each side by  3 :          x         =   9    <== the solution

So the three ages are  12,  14,  and  16.

The oldest child is  16  years old.
