Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
since y is common in both equations, you can equate them to be equal
-2x² - 4x + 5 = 2x² + 4x + 5
4x² + 8x = 0
factor out 4x
4x(x + 2) = 0
divide both sides by 4x
x + 2 = 0
x = -2
rechecking this answer with your lecturer. Tq
A line that is parallel to another line will have the same slope, in our case, the slope of 3. Therefore, we can just change the y-intercept to create any line parallel to y=3x+5 (just remember to keep the slope the same). For example, y=3x+5, y=3x-9, and y=3x+6.2 are all equations that are parallel to y=3x+5.

3 : 3 times 6 is 18, 2 times 9 is 18 and 3 times 3 is 9 plus 9 is 18
Answer:
7. a) slope = 5
7. b) slope = 1/2
8. slope = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
slope = rise/run
rise is the vertical change, run is the horizontal change
7. a)
Pick any two points on your line. (0,0) and (1,5) are easy to work with.
The vertical change between the two points is 5
The horizontal change between those points is 1
so slope = 5/1 = 5
7. b)
Again, you can use (0,0) as one of your points. The point (2,4) is good as the second.
slope = 4/2 = 1/2
8. We don't have a graph, but we are given two points to work with, (1,4) and (5,8). Use the formula given...
m = slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
= (8 - 4) / (5 - 1)
= 4/4
= 1
I hope that helped!
