Answer:
x as a fraction: 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Variable x cannot be equal to −2 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 9(x+2), the least common multiple of 9,x+2.
2 ( x+ 2) = 9 x 3
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x + 2.
2x + 4 = 9 x 3
Multiply 9 and 3 to get 27.
2x + 4 = 27
Subtract 4 from both sides.
2x = 27 - 4
Subtract 4 from 27 to get 23.
2x = 23
Divide both sides by 2.
x = 
Simplify

Answer:
(1 - 4x)³
Step-by-step explanation:
The first 2 terms are a difference of cubes and factor in general as
a³ - b³ = (a - b)(a² + ab + b²), thus
1 - 64x³
= 1³ - (4x)³
= (1 - 4x)(1 + 4x + 16x²)
Thus
1 - 64x³ + 48x² - 12x ← factor out 12x from each of the 2 terms
= (1 - 4x)(1 + 4x + 16x²) + 12x(4x - 1) ← factor out - 1 from (4x - 1)
= (1 - 4x)(1 + 4x + 16x²) - 12x(1 - 4x) ← factor out (1 - 4x) from the terms
= (1 - 4x)(1 + 4x + 16x² - 12x)
= (1 - 4x)(1 - 8x + 16x²) ← perfect square
= (1 - 4x)(1 - 4x)²
= (1 - 4x)³ ← in factored form
-2/3x is the slope. the full problem is y=-2/3x + 3
First off, let's keep in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, hmmm so what's the slope of y = 2x + 5?
well, notice, that equation is in slope-intercept form, thus
.
so, we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is -1/2 and runs through 1,4.
Hi! Could you type the question out.
