Answer:
(x - 8)(x + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 5x - 24
Consider the factors of - 24 which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 5)
The factors are - 8 and + 3 , since
- 8 × + 3 = - 24 and - 8 + 3 = - 5
Use these factors to split the x- term
x² - 8x + 3x - 24 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
= x(x - 8) + 3(x - 8) ← factor out (x - 8) from each term
= (x - 8)(x + 3) ← in factored form
Answer:
y=-2x + 8 which is the required equation
Which is option C
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Slope = m = -2
Given points are ( -2,12)
Which is
x = -2 and y =12
TO find:
Equation of line passing through these points = ?
Solution:
The point slope form of a line is
y = mx + c
Here we don't know the value of c
To find it
Putting y = 12 , x= -2 and y = -2 in the given equation
y = mx + c
Putting values it becomes
12 = (-2)*(-2) + c
12 = 4 + c
Subtracting 4 from both sides
12-4 = 4 -4 + c
8 = c
Now we have
m = -2 and c= 8
So equation of a line is given by
y = mx + c
Putting value of m and c
y = -2*x + 8
y=-2x + 8 which is the required equation

=====================================================
Parallel lines have the same slope.
So if the given line has a slope of 3, then the line parallel to it has the same slope (3)
Now, let's write the equation of the line in Point-Slope Form.
Remember, point-slope form looks like so:-

Where
y₁ is the y-coordinate of the point that the line passes through
m is the slope
x₁ is the x-coordinate of the point that the line passes through
In this case,
y₁ is equal to -8
m is equal to 3
x₁ is equal to 1
Plug in the values:

Simplify:

and we're done!
