Convert the equation − x − 2 y = 8 from standard to slope-intercept form

Mathematics
1 answer:
Molodets [167]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

y = -1/2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have our equation in standard form: -x - 2y = 8. We can use simplifying rules to isolate y on one side of the equation and give us our y = mx + b format. I'll begin by adding x to both sides.

-x - 2y = 8

-2y = x + 8

Now that we have y on one side, we can divide everything by -2.

-2y/-2 = x/-2 + 8/-2

y = -1/2x - 4

That looks like y = mx + b form.

If you have any further questions or need clarification on anything, let me know!

X squared plus 5x plus 6 in a factor of binomials
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

(x + 3)(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 5x + 6

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 5)

The factors are + 3 and + 2 , since

3 × 2 = 6 and 3 + 2 = 5 , thus

x² + 5x + 6 = (x + 3)(x + 2)

Find x inscribed angles
mina [271]
The easiest variable you can solve for first is "z". Knowing that opposite angles of a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle are supplementary, subtract 93 from 180 to get z.
Z should equal 87.
The next variable we can solve for is "x". We know that inscribed angles are half the measure of their intercepting arc, so we know 93 is half of (112 + x). The equation would look like this:

93= (112 + x)/2
Multiply both sides by 2
186 = 112 + x
Subtract 112 from both sides
74 = x

Now we can apply the same method we used to find "x" to find y. Set up an equation like this:
80 = (y + x)/2
Substitute the value of x in
80 = (y + 74)/2
Multiply both sides by 2
160 = y + 74
Subtract 74 from both sides
86 = y

Hope this helps!
