Answer:

-3x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

We want our equation to look like this

y=mx+b

we know that m= -3 so we just need to find b

We can start by plugging in the ordered coordinates into our equation

3=(-3)(-2)+b

Solve for b

3=6+b

b= -3

Which means our final equation is

y= -3x-3

What is the difference? StartFraction x Over x squared minus 16 EndFraction minus StartFraction 3 Over x minus 4 EndFraction Sta
katovenus [111]

Answer:

The option "StartFraction negative 2 (x + 6) Over (x + 4) (x minus 4) EndFraction" is correct

That is \frac{-2(x+6)}{(x+4)(x-4)}

Therefore \frac{x}{x^2-16}-\frac{3}{x-4}=\frac{-2(x+6)}{(x+4)(x-4)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given problem is StartFraction x Over x squared minus 16 EndFraction minus StartFraction 3 Over x minus 4 EndFraction

It can be written as below :

\frac{x}{x^2-16}-\frac{3}{x-4}

To solve the given expression

\frac{x}{x^2-16}-\frac{3}{x-4}

=\frac{x}{x^2-4^2}-\frac{3}{x-4}

=\frac{x}{(x+4)(x-4)}-\frac{3}{x-4}  ( using the property a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b) )

=\frac{x-3(x+4)}{(x+4)(x-4)}

=\frac{x-3x-12}{(x+4)(x-4)} ( by using distributive property )

=\frac{-2x-12}{(x+4)(x-4)}

=\frac{-2(x+6)}{(x+4)(x-4)}

\frac{x}{x^2-16}-\frac{3}{x-4}=\frac{-2(x+6)}{(x+4)(x-4)}

Therefore \frac{x}{x^2-16}-\frac{3}{x-4}=\frac{-2(x+6)}{(x+4)(x-4)}

Therefore the option "StartFraction negative 2 (x + 6) Over (x + 4) (x minus 4) EndFraction" is correct

That is \frac{-2(x+6)}{(x+4)(x-4)}

Please help i suck at these
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

1st Option;

j = 4.5

k = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for "j" first:

=> We know that by the definition of midpoint segment theorem we can say;

3j = 5j - 9

0 = 5j - 3j - 9

0 = 2j - 9

0 + 9 = 2j

9 = 2j

9/2 = j

4.5 = j

=> Now that we have j-value we use the same method to solve for k-value;

6k = k + 10

6k - k = 10

5k = 10

k = 10/5

k = 2

Therefore;

j = 4.5

k = 2

<u>So the first option would be correct!</u>

Hope this helps!
