x^2-x-12
factor
what 2 numbers multiply to get -12 and add to get -1?
-4 and 3
(x-4)(x+3)
answer is C and D
24 - 3x = -27
therefore -3x = -27-24
-3x = -51
-x= -17
therefore x is 17
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order for lines to be parallel they have to have the same slope. The first 2 equations there are solved for 5y, so let's do that to the last one--solve it for 5y--and put them all in the same order (the order that the first one is in; they will all look identical then). Equation #2 in the same order as in #1: 5y = 3x - 4. Equation #3 then becomes 5y = 3x - 1. Equations #2 and 3 have the same slope.
Answer:
y = - 2x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )
Calculate m using the gradient formula
m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1,1)
m =
= - 2
note the line passes through (0, 3) ⇒ c = 3
y = - 2x + 3 ← equation in slope-intercept form
