To get the x-intercept, we simply set y = 0 and solve for "x".

now, we have the slope and the y-intercept, well, let's plug those two in the slope-intercept form, reason why is called that anyway,

\bf y=\stackrel{slope}{-\cfrac{1}{2}}x\stackrel{y-intercept}{-2}\implies 0=-\cfrac{x}{2}-2\implies \cfrac{x}{2}=-2\implies x=-4

Complete the sentence below with less than,
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer: The Answer is "less than"

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the sum of a series, you find the difference between the first and last term, multiply that by the number of terms, then divide by 2.

For the even numbers, 2 is the first term and 200 is the 100th term (because 2+(100-1)2 is equal to 200). So, (100(2+202)/2 = 10100.

For the odd numbers, 1 is the first term and 201 is the 101th term (because 1+(101-1)2 is equal to 201). So, (101(1+202))/2 = 10251.5.

10100<10251.5 so the sum of the first 100 even numbers is less than the sum of the first odd 101 numbers.

Willie changes the quadratic function f(x)=x2?6x+14 to vertex form f(x)=a(x?h)2+k. If Willie does this correctly, what is the va
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The value of k is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know we can convert function's quadratic form to vertex form by completing the square.

f(x)=x2?6x+14

We will add and subtract 9 to our equation in order to complete the square.

1(x^{2} ?6x+9)-9+14

Upon completing the square and combining like terms we will get,

1(x?3)^{2} +5

Upon comparing Willie's vertex form with our expression we can see that k is 5.

Therefore, the value of k is 5.
