Answer:

y~x²

y/x²= k

27/3²=3

therefore k= 3

y/ -4 = k

y / -4= 3

3y = -4

y = -4

A group of students are planning a mural at a wall the rectangular wall has dimensions of (6x+7) by (8x+5) and they are planning

zvonat [6]

Answer: $46x^2+73x+15$

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle can be calculated with the formula:

$A=lw$

l: the length of the rectangle.

w: the width of the rectangle.

The area of the remaning wall after the mural has been painted, will be the difference of the area of the wall and the area of the mural.

Knowing that the dimensions of the wall are $(6x+7)$ by $(8x+5)$ , its area is:

$A_w=(6x+7)(8x+5)\\\\A_w=48x^2+30x+56x+35\\\\A_w=48x^2+86x+35$

As they are planning that the dimensions of the mural be $(x+4)$ by $(2x+5)$ , its area is:

$A_m=(x+4)(2x+5)\\\\A_m=2x^2+5x+8x+20\\\\A_m=2x^2+13x+20$

Then the area of the remaining wall after the mural has been painted is:

$A_{(remaining)}=A_w-A_m\\\\A_{(remaining)}=48x^2+86x+35-(2x^2+13x+20)\\\\A_{(remaining)}=48x^2+86x+35-2x^2-13x-20\\\\A_{(remaining)}=46x^2+73x+15$

Answer: Not 100% sure but this is what I think.

-4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

(5, -1) (15, −9)

1Y - 2Y / 1X - 2X = SLOPE

-1 + 9 / 5 - 15 = 8/-10 = -8/10 = -4/5

If f (1)= -2, then the point is on the graph of f

Komok [63]

<h3>Answer: (1, -2)</h3>

Explanation:

Writing f(1) = -2 means x = 1 and y = f(x) = -2 pair up together

So we have (x,y) = (1, -2) as the point on the f(x) curve.

A line includes the points (1, 9) and (0, 5). What is it’s equation in the slope-intercept form?

scoundrel [369]

Equation is y = 4x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the slope of the line by m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). Here y2 = 5, y1 = 9, x1 = 1 and x2 = 0

⇒ m = (5 - 9)/(0 - 1) = 4

Step 2: Find y-intercept, b. Since the line passes through (0, 5) b = 5
Step 3: Write the equation in slope-intercept form

⇒ y = 4x + 5
