To write the problem out as an equation, let 'n' equal your number.
(15 x 1/n) - 3n
871 is closer to 870 than 880, so the answer is 870
Slope intercept form is y = mx+b, so you can see that you set the equation equal to y. So if the equation is 2y+3x=6, then you solve for y to put it in slope intercept form.
2y + 3x = 6
2y = -3x + 6
y = (-3/2)x + 3
Keep in mind that the term with the x has to be before the constant, so it can't be y = 3 -(3/2)x
And by the way m is the slope and b is y-intercept, so in <span>y = (-3/2)x + 3, -3/2 is slope and (0,3) is y-intercept</span>
Answer: First option
Step-by-step explanation:
You have the quadratic equation given in the problem:
To find an equivalent expression you cacn factorize. Find two numbers whose sum is -13 and whose product is -30.
These numbers would be -15 and 2.
Therfore, you obtain the following equivalent expression:
If you don't want to apply the method above, you can use the quadratic formula:
Where:
When you susbstitute values you obtain that:
Then you can rewrite the equation as
