This coding is really simple. Just put letters inside прочитайте больше ..

what is the slope-intercept form of (9,65) and (10,52)

gradient (slope) = (52-65) / (10-9) = -13/1 = -13

remember, it is rise on run
it is the y axis that rises
and the x axis that run

What is the value of the expression −3x2y + 4x when x = −4 and y = 2?

do you mean −3*2y + 4x when x = −4 and y = 2?

Just substitute in the numbers but remember there is a * sign between 2 and y, and between 4 and x

how do you do the problem log base 3 of 20 -log base 3 of 6 - log base 3 of 30

=log base 3 of (20/6 divided by 30)

=log base 3 of (20/6 * 1/30)

=log base 3 of (1/9)

=log base 3 of (3 ^-2)

=-2 log base 3 of 3

= -2 *1
= -2

3x {(2x-y over 3) - (x-2y over 6)}

Do you mean 3x { [ 2x - (y/3)] - [x - (2y/6) ] } ?

= 3x { [ 2x - (y/3)] - 1 [x - (2y/6) ] } (remember that there is an invisible 1 )

= 3x { 2x - y/3 - x + 2y/6 }

=(3x/6) ( 12x - 2y - 6x + 2y )

=x/2 ( 6x )

= 3x ²

i = sqrt (-1)
It is an 'imaginary number'
University mathematics often involves imaginary numbers.
i is the most basic imaginary number that there is.

so
At school, the sqrt(-9) does not exist because you can't find the square root of a negative number.
if you study mathematics for long enough you will learn that

sqrt(-9) = sqrt (9*-1) = sqrt9 * sqrt(-1) = 3i

Sometimes maths gets a bit magical.

A 20 centimeter pendulum swings in front of a metric ruler. The bob(Weight on the end of the pendulum) is releases from a position of 36 centimeters. It swings to the 14 centimeter positionbefore winging back to 36 centimeters.
What is the period of the pendulum?=
2pi sqrt(20cm/(980(cm/s^2)))= 9 sec.

To tell you the truth I don't even understand most of this question eg where is the 36cm and 14 cm measured from?

Anyway, I googled it and came up with this web page
http://www.algebra.com/algebra/homework/Rational-functions/Rational-functions.faq.question.66609.html

It says that T=2pi[sqrt( l/g )]
where l is the length of the pendulum so l = 20cm
and g = gravity = 9.8m/s 2 = 980cm/s ²
So
T = 2pi[sqrt (20/980)]
T = 2pi (1/7)
T = 0.897 seconds approx
T = 0.9 sec approx

Since I don't understand your question I really couldn't say if this is correct.
