Answer:

y = (-3/4)x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of this line.  Note how the first x-coordinate (-8) becomes 4, a jump of 12, and how the first y-coordinate (8) becomes -1, a decrease of 9.  Then the slope is

m = (change in y) / (change in x) = -9/12 = m = -3/4

Find the y-intercept from this data using the slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b becomes  8 = (-3/4)(-8) + b when x = -8, y = 8 and m = -3/4.

Solving this equation for b, we get:

                                     8 = 6 + b, so that b must be 2.

The desired equation is y = (-3/4)x + 2.

Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter A

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph we get the points,

P (2,1)

Q (6,8)

Formula

d = √((x2-x1)² + (y2-y1)²)

d = √((6-2)² + (8-1)²)

d = √ (4² + 7²)

d = √ (16 + 49

d = √65           letter A

Determine the linear factors for 27x^3-12x
Kitty [74]

27x^3 - 12x factors into

3(9x^3 - 4x) a common factor of three has been taken out.

3x(9x^2 - 4) a common factor of x has been taken out. 3x is not a linear factor.

9x^2 - 4 factors by means of the difference of squares

3x(3x - 2)(3x + 2)

The two linear factors are 3x - 2 and 3x + 2
