Which is the completely factored form of 3xsquared
-12x-15?

3(x - 5)(x + 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 - 12x - 15

Dividing through by 3:

= 3(x^2 - 4x - 5)

We need 2 numbers whose sum is -4 and whose product = -5. That is -5 and +1 , so the factors are:

3(x - 5)(x + 1).

step-by-step explanation:

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)
