Here, I'll have a try:
This expression is the multiplication of a binomial and a trinomial.. The binomial has two terms, while the trinomial has three terms. Use the distributive property of multiplication,
Step 1, multiply every term of the trinomial with the first term of the binomial, then multiple every term of the trinomial with the second term of the binomial. Use parenthesis to separate each multiplication to avoid confusion.
step 3, simply every multiplication
step 4, add up like trms
Answer:
y - 1 = - 4(x + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line
Here m = - 4 and (a, b) = (- 3, 1), hence
y - 1 = - 4(x - (- 3)), thus
y - 1 = - 4(x + 3) ← in point- slope form
That would be -2 1/2 , 3 1/2
Answer:
n = 64
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve using cross products
10/15 = n/96
10*96 = 15*n
960 = 15n
Divide each side by 15
960/15 =15n/15
64 = n
The graph represents p(x) = |x|
To graph r(x) and q(x), pick any values of x to graph (I'd pick the numbers on the x- scales, -6, -4, -2, 0, 2, 4, and 6)
As for explaining them, I'm sure something like "multiply the absolute value of x by -1/2" for describing q(x) is an acceptable answer.
