Answer: V, V, (-5, -5.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
f ( - 2 ) = 5 × 3^( - 2 )
f ( - 2 ) = 5 × 1/9
f ( - 2 ) = 5/9
Add the polynomials together:
(5x-2)+(2x-3)+(4x+3)
Combine like terms:
(5x+2x+4x) + (-2+-3+3) = 11x-2
So the answer is D.
You have already done half of it. Now substitute for x1 = 4 and y = 5
y - 5 = 6/7(x - 4)
Multiply everything by 7 to remove fractions
7y - 35 = 6(x - 4)
7y - 35 = 6x - 24
-6x + 7y = -24 + 35
-6x + 7y = 11
Some people prefer a positive number in front of x so multiply by -1
6x - 7y = -11
You can check the answer by testing it works for both of the original points
6x4 - 7x5 = 24 - 35 = -11 true
6x-3 - 7x-1 = -18 - -7 = -11 true
