Answer:

Factors :- (x - 5) (x + 2)

Values :- x = 5, x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

= > x^2 - 3x - 10 = 0

= > x^2 - (5 - 2)x - 10 = 0

= > x^2 - 5x + 2x - 10 = 0

= > x (x - 5) + 2 (x - 5) = 0

= > (x + 2) ( x - 5) = 0...factors

= > x = 5, - 2...values

Which equation represents a line that passes through the two points in the table x 1,5 and y 1,6

aleksandrvk [35]

For this case we must find a linear equation of the form:

$y = mx + b$

Where,

m: slope of the line

b: cutting point with vertical axis.

For the slope we have the following equation:

$m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}}$

Substituting values we have:

$m = \frac {6-5} {1-1}\\m = \frac {1} {0}$

We observe that the slope of the line is not defined.

Therefore, the line is vertical.

Thus, the equation of the line is given by:

$x = 1$

Answer:

The equation of the line is given by:

$x = 1$

Help me plzzzzzzzzz :))))

Marty read 4 times as many pages as Nelson and Jennifer COMBINED. Marty read 1,860 pages.

In total, after dividing Marty's total by 4, Jennifer and Nelson both read a total of 465 pages.

After subtracting Nelson's 240, Jennifer is then found to have read 225 pages.

B would be the best viable option, as it clearly shows that 240+?x4=1,860, which it does.

Hope this helped. Khan Academy is a great resource for any learner. :)
