Answer:

y=2x-13

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-7-(-1))/(3-6)

m=(-7+1)/-3

m=-6/-3

m=2

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-1)=2(x-6)

y+1=2(x-6)

y=2x-12-1

y=2x-13

What two rational expressions sum to 2x+3/x^2-5x+4

Anni [7]

Answer:

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{-5}{3(x- 1)} + \frac{11}{3(x - 4)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rational expression: $\frac{2x + 3}{x^2 - 5x + 4}$ , to express this in simplified form, we would need to apply the concept of partial fraction.

Step 1: factorise the denominator

$x^2 - 5x + 4$

$x^2 - 4x - x + 4$

$(x^2 - 4x) - (x + 4)$

$x(x - 4) - 1(x - 4)$

$(x- 1)(x - 4)$

Thus, we now have: $\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)}$

Step 2: Apply the concept of Partial Fraction

Let,

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)}$ = $\frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}$

Multiply both sides by (x - 1)(x - 4)

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} * (x - 1)(x - 4)$ = $(\frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}) * (x - 1)(x - 4)$

$2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

Step 3:

Substituting x = 4 in $2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

$2(4) + 3 = A(4 - 4) + B(4 - 1)$

$8 + 3 = A(0) + B(3)$

$11 = 3B$

$\frac{11}{3} = B$

$B = \frac{11}{3}$

Substituting x = 1 in $2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

$2(1) + 3 = A(1 - 4) + B(1 - 1)$

$2 + 3 = A(-3) + B(0)$

$5 = -3A$

$\frac{5}{-3} = \frac{-3A}{-3}$

$A = -\frac{5}{3}$

Step 4: Plug in the values of A and B into the original equation in step 2

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}$

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{-5}{3(x- 1)} + \frac{11}{3(x - 4)}$

Write an equation in slope intercept form for the line with slope -4 and y intercept 1

aalyn [17]

Answer:

y = -4x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

you said, slope of -4, therefore it's -4x and you also said y intercept of 1, therefore it's a positive 1 : +1

combine them together: y = -4x +1

Nathan needs to order some new supplies for the restaurant where he works. The restaurant needs at least 571 forks. There are cu

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The inequality representing s, the number of sets of forks Nathan should buy is

s ≥ 21

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the restaurant needs at least 571 forks, i.e., if n represents the number of forks the restaurant needs, then

n ≥ 571

Also from the question, there are currently 361 forks. If y represents the number of forks the restaurant needs to buy, then

y ≥ 571 - 361

y ≥ 210

Also, each set on sale contains 10 forks. if s represents the number of sets of forks Nathan should buy, then

s ≥ 210/10

s ≥ 21

Hence, the inequality representing s, the number of sets of forks Nathan should buy is

s ≥ 21
