Answer:

2. $y=\frac{1}{2}x +3$

Step-by-step explanation:

2. The line will be parallel to the current track which means they have the same slope. To write the equation, use the slope m=1/2 and the point (2,4) in point slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-4=\frac{1}{2}(x-2)$

This is the equation of the line. You can convert it to slope intercept form:

$y-4=\frac{1}{2}(x-2)\\y-4 = \frac{1}{2}x -1 \y=\frac{1}{2}x +3$

Which equation represents y= -x^2 + 6x + 7 in vertex form ?

Drupady [299]

we are given

$y= -x^2 + 6x + 7$

we can use vertex form parabola formula

$y= a(x-h)^2+k$

so, we can complete x square

$y= -(x^2 - 6x - 7)$

$y= -(x^2 - 6x - 7+3^2-3^2)$

$y= -(x^2 - 6x +3^2-16)$

$y= -(x-3)^2+16$

Explain how the distance formula can prove Pythagoras' Theorem. In your

Paul [167]

Answer:

Given a triangle ABC, Pythagoras' Theorem shows that:

$c^2=a^2+b^2$

Thus,

$c = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}$

The distance formula, gives an equivalent expression based on two points at the end of the hypotenuse for a triangle.

$d^2 = (x_{2} -x_{1})^2 + (y_{2} -y_{1})^2$

$d = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2 + (y_{2} -y_{1})^2 }$

Therefore when given the hypotenuse with endpoints at

$(x_{1}, y_{1}) and {(x_{2}, y_{2})$

We know that the third point of the right triangle will be at

$(x_{2}, y_{1})$

and that the two side lengths will be defined by the absolute values of:

$(x_{2} - x_{1}) = a$

$(y_{2} - y_{1}) = b$
