Answer:y=1/3x-7/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. y-y1=m(x-x1)

y+1=1/3(x-4)
y+1=1/3x-4/3

2. you need to isolate the variable so subtract 1 from both sides

y+1=1/3x-4/3
-1 -1
y=1/3x-7/3

Example 5 suppose that f(0) = −8 and f '(x) ≤ 9 for all values of x. how large can f(3) possibly be? solution we are given that

joja [24]

$f'(x)$ exists and is bounded for all $x$ . We're told that $f(0)=-8$ . Consider the interval [0, 3]. The mean value theorem says that there is some $c\in(0,3)$ such that

$f'(c)=\dfrac{f(3)-f(0)}{3-0}$

Since $f'(x)\le9$ , we have

$\dfrac{f(3)+8}3\le9\implies f(3)\le19$

so 19 is the largest possible value.

What is the solution to the system of linear equations represented by the matrix below?

olga_2 [115]

$\begin{bmatrix}2&4\\1&2\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}6\\3\end{bmatrix}$

Notice that the second row is half the first, so the rows are dependent. This means there are infinitely many solutions to the system.
