Answer:
1/6z.
Step-by-step explanation:
25z^2 / 150z^3
25 divides 6 times into 150 and z^3 / z^2 = z
so the answer is 1/6z.
Second one is correct, that is an identity.
Third one is a contradiction:
6x - 15 = 3 * (2x - 6) ------> 6x - 15 = 6x - 18
Fourth one:
5x - 3 * (x - 4) = 2 * (x - 6) ---> 5x - 3x + 12 = 2x - 12 ---> 2x + 12 = 2x -12
So this is a contradiction as well.
Answer:
y = 3x - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b
Where:
y is the y value.
m is the slope.
x is the x value.
And b is the y-intercept.
First, you want to find your slope. To do this, you can either use the slope formula to find the slope, or just count on the picture:
m = rise/run
m = 3/1
m = 3
With the slope formula, you first need to choose two points.
I chose:
(2, -1) and (3, 2)
Slope formula:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) {It doesn't matter which point you choose to be x2 and x1, just be consistent when you plug it into the formula}
m = (2 - (-1)) / (3 - 2)
m = 3/1
m = 3
Now that you have your slope, all you need is your y-intercept. To find your y-intercept, you can either look at the graph (again) to see where the line intersects with the y-axis, or you can solve it algebraically:
y-int = -7
To solve algebraically, choose a random point on the line and plug it into what you have for your equation so far and then solve for b.
I chose:
(2, -1)
y = 3x + b
-1 = 3(2) + b
-1 = 6 + b
-1 - 6 = b
b = -7
Now you have your final answer:
y = 3x - 7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You know the intercepts occur at x = 0, so set each part of the factored form equal to zero and solve for x.
The first part, plain X = 0, so X = 0 is a root, an x-intercept
The second part (X-2)^2 = 0, so X = 2 is another root. Since the function is being squared, this root will happen twice. The function crosses this root twice.
The third part (x+4) = 0, so x = -4 is another root.
Finally, (x+1) so x = -1 is another root.
So you have X = 0, X = 2, X = -4, X = -1 as your x-intercepts
