Y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y-intercept
y=-4x+b
Plug in the coordinate in place of x and y (-2,1)
1=-4(-2)+b
1=8+b
Subtract both sides by 8 to isolate B
b=-7
Final answer:
<span>y = −4x − 7

Answer:
The function is increasing for all real values of x where
x < –4.
Step-by-step explanation:
we have

This is a vertical parabola open downward (the leading coefficient is negative)
The vertex (h,k) represent a maximum
The roots of the function (or x-intercepts) are x=-6 and x=-2
The x-coordinate of the vertex is the midpoint of the roots
so

The y-coordinate of the vertex is
substitute the x-coordinate of the vertex in the quadratic equation



The vertex is the point (-4,4)
The function is increasing in the interval (-∞,-4)
The function is decreasing in the interval (-4,∞)
Answer:
27 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
225-35=190. 190/7.25 roughly 26.2068965517. We round because we are seeking whole hours required minimum and we get 27.
