If it is perpendicular to the x-axis, it is a vertical line of the form:

x=k, since it must pass through (5,1) that vertical line is:

x=5

In the equation x=y^3 - 10, is y a function of x?
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

If y is a function of x, then the equation would be written as a "y =" equation, not an "x = " equation.  This example is one where x is a function of y.

Find the x intercepts of the parabola with vertex (-1,-16) and y intercept (0,-15)
Arlecino [84]
<span> first, write the equation of the parabola in the required form: </span>
<span>(y - k) = a·(x - h)² </span>

<span>Here, (h, k) is given as (-1, -16). </span>
<span>So you have: </span>
<span>(y + 16) = a · (x + 1)² </span>

<span>Unfortunately, a is not given. However, you do know one additional point on the parabola: (0, -15): </span>

<span>-15 + 16 = a· (0 + 1)² </span>
<span>.·. a = 1 </span>

<span>.·. the equation of the parabola in vertex form is </span>
<span>y + 16 = (x + 1)² </span>

<span>The x-intercepts are the values of x that make y = 0. So, let y = 0: </span>

<span>0 + 16 = (x + 1)² </span>
<span>16 = (x + 1)² </span>

<span>We are trying to solve for x, so take the square root of both sides - but be CAREFUL! </span>

<span>± 4 = x + 1 ...... remember both the positive and negative roots of 16...... </span>

<span>Solving for x: </span>
<span>x = -1 + 4, x = -1 - 4 </span>
<span>x = 3, x = -5. </span>

<span>Or, if you prefer, (3, 0), (-5, 0). </span>

F(x)=9x^2 <br><br> g(x)= sqrt 12-x/3<br><br> (f o g)(-4)
Slav-nsk [51]

f(x)=9x^2 \\ g(x)=\frac{\sqrt{12-x}}{3} \\ So,first step is to write (fog)(-4)) =f[g(-4)] \\

Now we start from inner paranthesis ,we need to first find value of g(-4) =\frac{\sqrt{12-(-4)}}{3}\\ =\frac{\sqrt{12+4}}{3}\\&#10;=\frac{\sqrt{16}}{3}\\&#10;=\frac{4}{3}\\&#10;(fog)(-4)) =f[g(-4)] =f(\frac{4}{3}) =9(4/3)^{2} =9*(16/9) =144/9 =16

Find the x and y intercepts. Write your answer as x =<br> y =<br> 2x + 5y = 10
Ann [662]
The x-intercept is present where y = 0

2x + 5y - 10 = 0
2x - 10 = -5y
2x - 10 = -5(0)
2x = 10
x = 5

The y-intercept is present where x = 0

2x + 5y = 10
2x + 5y - 10 = 0
5y - 10 = -2(0)
5y = 10
y = 2
