What are the factors of 3x^2 + 23x − 8?

3x² + 23x − 8 = 3x² + 24x - x - 8 = 3x(x+8) - (x+8) = (x+8)(3x-1)

First, we want to find the point of intersection of y=2x-5 and y= -x+1 by solving a system of equations. we can use the substitution method, since both equations are already solved for y: 2x-5=-x+13x=6x=2now we can plug in this x value to one of the original equations to find the y value: y=(-2)+1y=-1therefore, our point of intersection is (2,-1). we can now plug this into the equation y=kx-4 to solve for k because we know that the line must pass through this point: -1=k(2)-43=k(2)k=2/3
