X²-9x=36
minus 36 both sides
x²-9x-36=0
what 2 numbers multiply to -36 and add to -9
-12 and 3
(x-12)(x+3)=0
set to zero
x-12=0
x=12
x+3=0
x=-3
the number is either -3 or 12
Answer:
(D)What did Micah eat for lunch yesterday?
Step-by-step explanation:
A statistical question is a question for which the expected response varies. That is, we do not expect to get a single answer. Out of the given options,
Option D is not a valid statistical question as the response to the question will always be the same for a particular day,
If Micah ate cheesecakes for lunch yesterday, asking repeated times will not change the response.
Half the x-coefficient is -3, so the equation needs to be rearranged into a form that looks like
x² -6x +(-3)² + [something]
You can get there by adding and subtracting 9 from the original equation.
y = x² -6x +9 +7 -9 . . . . . 9 added and subtracted
y = (x² -6x +9) -2
The quantity in parentheses is a perfect square, so we can write the equation in the desired form as ...
y = (x -3)² -2
Answer:
Ax + Ay + 2A = 0 for any nonzero A, for example (A=1): x + y + 2 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line is
Ax + By + C = 0
so we know that:
A*-3 + B*1 + C = 0
A*5 + B*-7 + C = 0
Let's subtract one from the other:
A*(-3 - 5) + B*(1 + -7) = 0
A*-8 + B*8 = 0
B*8 = A*8
B = A
Let's input B = A into the first two equations
A*-3 + A*1 + C = A*-2 + C = 0
A*5 + A*-7 + C = A*-2 + C = 0
checks out
C = 2A
So for any nonzero A the equation of
Ax + Ay + 2A = 0 produces a line passing between the points. Example would be
x + y + 2 = 0
<em><u>The average would be 16.</u></em>
To calculate this, add all the values together then divide that sum by the amount of data values.
11+16+15+22=64
64÷4=16
