So let's evaluate a point that is to the left of  (which is the left most endpoint). Let's evaluate the value
(3x-4)>0) Start with the given inequality
(3(-6)-4)>0) Plug in
 Evaluate and simplify
Since  is true, this means that everything to the left of  is in the solution set. So the graph looks like this
So one part of the solution in interval notation is
-----------------------------------------------
Now let's test a point that is in between the critical values  and
(3x-4)>0) Start with the given inequality
(3(-2)-4)>0) Plug in
 Evaluate and simplify
Since  is false, this means that the interval does not work. So that means that this interval is not in the solution set and can be ignored.
-----------------------------------------------
So let's evaluate a point that is to the right of  (which is the right most endpoint). Let's evaluate the value
(3x-4)>0) Start with the given inequality
(3(2)-4)>0) Plug in
 Evaluate and simplify
So everything to the right of  is in the solution set. So our graph now looks like
Since  is true, this means that one part of the solution in interval notation is

Linear-equations/134833: Graph 3x-4y=8 using the slope and y-intercept 1 solutions
Answer 98681 by jim_thompson5910(28598) on 2008-04-02 00:51:34 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
 Start with the given equation
 Subtract  from both sides
 Rearrange the equation
 Divide both sides by
 Break up the fraction
 Reduce
Looking at  we can see that the equation is in slope-intercept form  where the slope is  and the y-intercept is
Since  this tells us that the y-intercept is ) .Remember the y-intercept is the point where the graph intersects with the y-axis
So we have one point
Now since the slope is comprised of the "rise" over the "run" this means
Also, because the slope is  , this means:
which shows us that the rise is 3 and the run is 4. This means that to go from point to point, we can go up 3 and over 4
So starting at ) , go up 3 units
and to the right 4 units to get to the next point
Now draw a line through these points to graph
 So this is the graph of  through the points ) and

All that you need to do is solve for x in
Let's use the quadratic formula to solve for x:
Starting with the general quadratic
the general solution using the quadratic equation is:
So lets solve  ( notice  ,  , and  )
 Plug in a=1, b=-2, and c=10
 Negate -2 to get 2
 Square -2 to get 4 (note: remember when you square -2, you must square the negative as well. This is because  .)
 Multiply  to get
 Combine like terms in the radicand (everything under the square root)
 Simplify the square root (note: If you need help with simplifying the square root, check out this solver)
 Multiply 2 and 1 to get 2

Answer 98374 by jim_thompson5910(28598) on 2008-03-30 22:39:26 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Looking at  we can see that the first term is  and the last term is  where the coefficients are 14 and 14 respectively.
Now multiply the first coefficient 14 and the last coefficient 14 to get 196. Now what two numbers multiply to 196 and add to the middle coefficient -53? Let's list all of the factors of 196:
Factors of 196:
1,2,4,7,14,28,49,98
-1,-2,-4,-7,-14,-28,-49,-98 ...List the negative factors as well. This will allow us to find all possible combinations
These factors pair up and multiply to 196
1*196
2*98
4*49
7*28
14*14
(-1)*(-196)
(-2)*(-98)
(-4)*(-49)
(-7)*(-28)
(-14)*(-14)
note: remember two negative numbers multiplied together make a positive number
Now which of these pairs add to -53? Lets make a table of all of the pairs of factors we multiplied and see which two numbers add to -53
| First Number | Second Number | Sum | | 1 | 196 | 1+196=197 | | 2 | 98 | 2+98=100 | | 4 | 49 | 4+49=53 | | 7 | 28 | 7+28=35 | | 14 | 14 | 14+14=28 | | -1 | -196 | -1+(-196)=-197 | | -2 | -98 | -2+(-98)=-100 | | -4 | -49 | -4+(-49)=-53 | | -7 | -28 | -7+(-28)=-35 | | -14 | -14 | -14+(-14)=-28 |
From this list we can see that -4 and -49 add up to -53 and multiply to 196
Now looking at the expression  , replace  with  (notice  adds up to  . So it is equivalent to  )
Now let's factor  by grouping:
 Group like terms
 Factor out the GCF of  out of the first group. Factor out the GCF of  out of the second group
 Since we have a common term of  , we can combine like terms
So  factors to
So this also means that  factors to  (since  is equivalent to  )

Answer:
So  factors to
