Solution, solve\:for\:y,\:y=-\left(-4\right)^2-4\quad :\quad y=-20

Steps:

y=-\left(-4\right)^2-4

\mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \left(-a\right)^n=a^n,\:\mathrm{if\:}n\mathrm{\:is\:even},\\\left(-4\right)^2=4^2,\\y=-4^2-4

4^2=16,\\y=-16-4

\mathrm{Subtract\:the\:numbers:}\:-16-4=-20,\\y=-20

\mathrm{The\:Correct\:Answer\:is\:y=-20}

\mathrm{Hope\:This\:Helps!!!}

Simplify (4x-8)/(-3x)*(12)/(12-6x)
zloy xaker [14]

\dfrac{4x-8}{-3x}\cdot\dfrac{12}{12-6x}=\dfrac{4(x-2)}{-x}\cdot\dfrac{4}{-6(x-2)}=\dfrac{4}{-x}\cdot\dfrac{4}{-6}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{-x}\cdot\dfrac{4}{-3}=\dfrac{(2)(4)}{(-x)(-3)}=\dfrac{8}{3x}

A fair charges $7.25 for admission and $5.50 for a ride pass. Ten friends visited the fair. Not all of the friends purchased rid
kati45 [8]
You take
7.25 (10)+5.5p=105.5
72.5+5.5p=105.5
To make the equation easier multiply the whole equation by ten like this
(72.5+5.5p=105.5)10 that equals
725+55p=1055
Then subtract 725 to both sides
725+55p=1055
-725 -725
____ _____
55p=330
Then divide by 55 on both sides and that equals 6 so 6 people bought tickets

A function f(x) is graphed on the coordinate plane.
Sidana [21]

Answer: y = - 4x + 2


Explanation:


The graph shows a linear function, which is a first degree polynomial, whose form is ax + b.


The rule or fucntion is f(x) = y = ax + b. This form is called the slope-intercept form, because the coefficient a is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.


The graph permits you to calculate both parameters.


1) The slope, a is defined in this way:

  • a = rise / run = [change in y] / [change in x] = [y₂ -y₁] / [x₂ - x₁]
  • you can use the points (0, - 2) and (-1,2):

       ⇒ a = [ 2 - (-2) ] / [ -1 - 0 ] = 4 / (-1) = - 4

2) b, the y-intercept, is the value of the function, y, when x = 0. In the graph you can see that this is - 2. b =  - 2.


3) Substituting the values of a and b in the form y = ax + b, you the rule:

  • y = - 4x - 2
