~ Substitute x = 2 into the equation and if the result is equal to the y- coordinate of the point then it is a solution.

~ y = 3(2) - 2 = 6 - 2 = 4 ≠ - 1

(2, - 1) is not a solution to the equation.

~ The point (2, - 1) only lies on the line sloping downwards from left to right.

~ So it’s is a solution to that equation.

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if (2, - 1) is a solution to y = 3x - 2

Substitute x = 2 into the equation and if the result is equal to the y- coordinate of the point then it is a solution.

y = 3(2) - 2 = 6 - 2 = 4 ≠ - 1

Thus (2, - 1) is not a solution to the equation.

The point (2, - 1) only lies on the line sloping downwards from left to right.

It is therefore a solution to that equation but not the other.

What’s the least common multiple of x^2-2x-15 and x^2+2x-3?

Ghella [55]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{LCM(x^2-2x-15,\ x^2+2x-3)=(x+3)(x-5)(x-1)}\\\boxed{=x^3-3x^2-13x+15}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^2-2x-15=x^2+3x-5x-15=x(x+3)-5(x+3)=(x+3)(x-5)\\\\\\x^2+2x-3=x^2+3x-1x-3=x(x+3)-1(x+3)=(x+3)(x-1)\\\\LCM(x^2-2x-15,\ x^2+2x-3)=(x+3)(x-5)(x-1)\\\\=(x^2-2x-15)(x-1)\qquad\text{use FOIL}\\\\=(x^2)(x)+(x^2)(-1)+(-2x)(x)+(-2x)(-1)+(-15)(x)+(-15)(-1)\\\\=x^3-x^2-2x^2+2x-15x+15\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\=x^3+(-x^2-2x^2)+(2x-15x)+15\\\\=x^3-3x^2-13x+15$

Sum of two numbers is 24 and the difference is 15.What are the two numbers ?

Alexeev081 [22]

Let,
the bigger number be "x"
the smaller number be "y"
Now, according to the question,
x + y = 24...........equation (1).............because the sum of numbers is 24
x - y = 15 .............equation (2)..................because their difference is 15

Taking equation (2),
x - y = 15
x = 15 + y ....................equation (3)

Now, Taking equation (1)
x + y = 24
(Substituting the value of "x" form equation (3) we get)
15 + y + y = 24
(Subtracting 15 on both sides, we get)
y + y = 24 - 15
2y = 9
y = 9 / 2
y = 4.5
Now,
Taking equation (3)
x = 15 + y
(Substituting the value of y , we get)
x = 15 + 4.5
x = 19.5

So, the two numbers are 19.5 and 4.5
