The heaviest chicken would actually be 4 pounds. Since the average of both chickens is 4, that means they had to do the weight of the chickens added together than divided by two. The only one that would work is 2. So then you add 2 to that and it would be four.

What is the equation of a line that passes through point R(3,7) and has a slope of 6?
djyliett [7]
The answer in slope intercept form is y = 6x-11

If you want the answer in standard form, then it would be 6x-y =11

notes:
* Slope intercept form is y = mx+b
* Standard form is Ax+By = C
=====================================

Explanation:

The given slope is m = 6
The line goes through (x,y) = (3,7)

Plug those three values into the equation below. Isolate b
y = mx+b
7 = 6*3+b
7 = 18+b
7-18 = 18+b-18 ... subtract 18 from both sides
-11 = b
b = -11

So because m = 6 and b = -11, this means y = mx+b turns into y = 6x-11

The answer in slope intercept form is y = 6x-11

To convert to standard form Ax+By = C, we just have to get all the x and y terms together on the same side. I'm going to move the y term to the right side and move the 11 to the left side

y = 6x-11
y+11 = 6x-11+11
y+11 = 6x
y+11-y = 6x-y
11 = 6x-y
6x-y = 11

The answer in standard form is 
6x-y = 11
which is a different way to write the same line

Which expression is equivalent to (x - 5)(4x2 – 3x + 8)?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

(x - 5) (x (4 x - 3) + 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

4 x^3 - 23 x^2 + 23 x - 40

x (x (4 x - 23) + 23) - 40

(x - 5) (x (4 x - 3) + 8)
