Hello!
The slope intercept form is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
First, let's find the y-intercept. This is where the line hits the y-axis. Therefore, it hits at 4 on the y-axis, so our y-intercept is 4.
To find the slope, let's find 2 points on our line. Let's use (0,4) and (2,5). We divide the difference in the y-values by the difference in the x-values as shown below.
Therefore, our slope is 2.
Now we plug these values into our equation.
y=2x+4
I hope this helps!
Answer: Choice C
h(x) = -x^4 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 + 4x + 5
===========================================
Explanation:
When reflecting the function f(x) over the y axis, we replace every x with -x and simplify like so
f(x) = -x^4 - 2x^3 + 3x^2 - 4x + 5
f(-x) = -(-x)^4 - 2(-x)^3 + 3(-x)^2 - 4(-x) + 5
f(-x) = -x^4 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 + 4x + 5
h(x) = -x^4 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 + 4x + 5
Note the sign changes that occur for the terms that have odd exponents (the terms -2x^3 and -4x become +2x^3 and +4x); while the even exponent terms keep the same sign.
The reason why we replace every x with -x is because of the examples mentioned below
-----------
Examples:
The point (1,2) moves to (-1,2) after a y axis reflection
Similarly, (-5,7) moves to (5,7) after a y axis reflection.
As you can see, the y coordinate stays the same but the x coordinate flips in sign from negative to positive or vice versa. This is the direct reason for the replacement of every x with -x.
Cross Multiply by 'x - 5'
Hence
y(x - 5) = 4 -3x
xy - 5y = 4 - 3x
Move all the terms containing an 'x' to one side of the equals and all the others to the opposite side.
xy + 3x = 4 + 5y
Factor out 'x'
x(y + 3) = 4 + 5y
'Cross' divide by 'y + 3'
x = ( 4 + 5y) / (y + 3 )
'x' is now the subject.
Answer:
Shape 1: 25.915
Shape 2: 102.85
Shape 3: 142
Step-by-step explanation:
For shape 1, you have to divide 7.1 to get half the width of the triangle. You get 3.55 from that, and then finding the triangle itself you have to do 7.3*3.55 to get 25.915. For shape 2, you first do the harder parts (the triangles) and since there is two of them we don't need to half the width of each triangle. But first to get the width, we need to do 20-17.4=2.6. But since there are 2 triangles we need to divide that by 2 to get 1.3. Then you multiply that by 5.5 to get the final area of both triangles which is 7.15. Next you simply find the rectangle which is 17.4*5.5=95.7. You add the triangles area to get 102.85. Finally for shape 3 you simply do 7.1*20=142.
