Answer:

$y=-2x+12$

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line, find the slope between two points. Substitute two points into the slope formula. If the equation has an x-intercept of 6 then the line passes through the point (6,0). Use (6,0) and (4,4) in the formula.

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{4-0}{4-6} =\frac{4}{-2} =-2$

Since m = -2, substitute its value and the point (6,0) into the point slope form. Then simplify.

$y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y-0 = -2 (x-6)\\y=-2x+12$

Relay races called for 8 people on a team. There were 43 men and 34 women who wanted to race. How many teams could be formed ?ho

ELEN [110]

It would be an odd number of teams. What I did was add 43 and 34 together. Which gave me 77. So 77 people total wanted to race. There can only be 8 racers on each team. Each means to divide. So I divided 8 and 77. It gave me 9 with a remainder of 5. So there will e 9 teams and 5 racers left out. (:

The production cost, represented by y, of smart phone devices are equal to the product of computing components (a) and the squar

Marta_Voda [28]

The production cost is an illustration of a quadratic function

<h3>How to determine the equation</h3>

We have the following parameters:

Computing components (a)
Number of devices (x),
Labor (b)
Savings on reusable material (c)

Using the instructions in the question, the equation of the production cost would be:

$y =ax^2 + bx -c$

Hence, the production cost is $y =ax^2 + bx -c$

<h3>Change the subject of the equation</h3>

In (a), we have:

$y =ax^2 + bx -c$

Subtract bx - c from both sides

$y - bx + c = ax^2$

Divide through by x^2

$a = \frac{y - bx + c}{x^2}$

Hence, the equation that represents the computing component is $a = \frac{y - bx + c}{x^2}$

Let F(x,y)=1+sqrt(4-y^2). . (a) Evaluate F(3,1). (b) Find and sketch the domain of F. (c) Find the range of F

charle [14.2K]

The goal of this function is to get a positive value under the square root sign so that the value would not be invalid. Evaluating F(3,1), the value is 1 + <span>sqrt(4-1^2) or equal to 1 + sqrt of 3.</span> In this case, the domain would be x equal to any numbers and the range equal to numbers from -2 ≤ y ≤ 2.
