Answer:

y = -1/2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First we wanna convert x + 2y = 14 into a slope-intercept equation.

x + 2y = 14

2y = 14 - x

y = 7 - x/2 or y = -1/2x + 7

Now that we have the line in slope-intercept form, we can solve for a line that is parallel to.

But first, what do parallel lines have in common? Parallel lines never intersect first of all and second they have the same slope so meaning we’re going to use -1/2 in order to find the equation of a parallel line so…

y = -1/2x + b

use the given point in the question

0 = -1/2(-8) + b

0 = 4 + b

b = 0 - 4

b = -4

The y-intercept of the line is -4

The equation of the line that passes through the point (-8, 0) and is parallel to the line x + 2y = 14 is y = -1/2x - 4

• Mother has 40 guavas to share among her daughters, Naomi got 3
scoray [572]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As given Total Guavas  = 40 ,

3 daughters,

Let   share of Sharon = x

then by given condition ,

Naomi share = x+3                  (3 more then Sharon

Also Kassie share = x+3+10 =x+13     (10 more then Naomi

Now

total shared = total

Naomi + Sharon + Kassie = 40

(x+3) +(x) +(x+13) =40

adding like terms with like we get ,

3x+16=40

3x=40-16

3x=24

x= 24/3

x= 8  

hence Sharon share = x =8

Naomi share = x+3 =8+3 =11

Kassie share = x+13 = 8+13 = 21

Answer:

  • (x -1)(x +6)
  • (x -5)(x +3)
  • (x -4)(x -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

In each case, you're looking for divisors of the constant that have a sum equal to the x-coefficient. Those divisors are the constants in the binomial factors.

1) -6 = -1·6 = -2·3 . . . . . (-1)+(6) = 5, so these are the constants of interest.

  x^2 +5x -6 = (x -1)(x +6)

__

2) -15 = -1·15 = -3·5 = -5·3 . . . . . (-5)+(3) = -2, so these are the constants of interest

  x^2 -2x -15 = (x -5)(x +3)

__

3) 12 = -1·-12 = -2·-6 = -3·-4 . . . . . (-3) +(-4) = -7, so these are the constants of interest

  x^2 -7x +12 = (x -3)(x -4)

Determine if y=3x-2 Is a function
Komok [63]

y=3x-2 is a function because it passes the vertical line test.

This means that for each individual x-value that we substitute for x, there is a unique individual y-value that y ends up equaling to.
