Y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y intercept

alrighty, find the slope

slope between (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

the slope between (8,-1) and (-4,2) is (2-(-1))/(-4-8)=(2+1)/(-12)=3/-12=-1/4

y=(-1/4)x+b
find b
subsitute a point
(8,-1)
x=8 and y=-1
-1=(-1/4)(8)+b
-1=-2+b
1=b

the  y intercept is y=1 or the point (0,1)

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you go to a baseball park and ask what their favorite sport is most will probably say baseball. Just as if you go to a basketball court, most would respond with basketball as their favorite sport. I suggest not going to anything related to sports and asking random people.

For the function shown below, find f(3): f(x)=2x^4-8x^2+5x-7
a_sh-v [17]

We have been given the function

f(x)=2x^4-8x^2+5x-7

We have to find the value of f(3). In order to find the same, substitute x=3 in the given function.

f(3)=2(3)^4-8(3)^2+5(3)-7

Now, we simplify this step by step.

First of all 3^4=81\text{ and }3^2=9. Thus, we have

f(3)=2\times 81 -8\times 9+5(3)-7

Now, we can easily simplify it by PEMDAS

f(3)=162-72+15-7

f(3)=98


Therefore, the value of f(3) is 98.
