8y - 6 = 5y + 12
- 5y - 5y
3y - 6 = 12
+ 6 + 6
3y = 18
3 3
y = 6
5x³ + 8x² - 7x - 6
1)
x + 2 is a factor because when using synthetic division, the remainder is zero.
-2 | 5 8 -7 -6
<u>| ↓ -10 4 6 </u>
5 -2 -3 0 ← remainder is zero
2)
x + 2 is not a factor because when using synthetic division, the remainder is not zero.
-1 | 5 8 -7 -6
<u>| ↓ -5 -3 10 </u>
5 3 -10 4 ← remainder is not zero
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
This expression can be rewritten as
8
----
9
======
4
---
9
If we now invert the denominator fraction 4/9 and multiply the result, we get:
8 9
----- * ----- = 2
9 4
The slope of the equation would be 7/3 since the original slope was -3/7. We already know y int (b) so the eqn is
y = 7/3x + 2
