(-3,0) and (0,-2)
slope = (-2 - 0)/(0 + 3) = -2/3
b = -2
so equation
y = -2/3(x) - 2

answer
<span>B. f(x) = -2/3(x) - 2</span>

Let's find the slope-intercept equation of this line.  You can read off the y-intercept immediately; it's the place where x= 0 and the line crosses the y-axis.  Here that intercept is b=-2.

The coordinates of that point are (0,-2).

Now let's find the slope of the line.  Starting at (0,-2) move to the left 3 units (because -3 is the x-coordinate of the intersection of the line with the x-axis).  From (0,-2), how far UP along the y-axis to the x-axis is it?

slope = rise / run.  In this case, starting from (0,-2), and moving 3 units to the left, we get "run" = -3.  Starting from (0,-2) and moving straight up to the x-axis, we get "rise" = 2.

The slope is then m = rise / run   =  2/-3, or    m = -2/3.

Thus, the equation of this line is y = mx + b, or   y = (-2/3)x - 2.

Write an equation of the hyperbola given that the center is at (2, -3), the vertices are at (2, 3) and (2, - 9), and the foci ar
zavuch27 [327]
Check the picture below.

so, the hyperbola looks like so, clearly a = 6 from the traverse axis, and the "c" distance from the center to a focus has to be from -3±c, as aforementioned above, the tell-tale is that part, therefore, we can see that c = 2√(10).

because the hyperbola opens vertically, the fraction with the positive sign will be the one with the "y" in it, like you see it in the picture, so without further adieu,

\bf \textit{hyperbolas, vertical traverse axis }&#10;\\\\&#10;\cfrac{(y- k)^2}{ a^2}-\cfrac{(x- h)^2}{ b^2}=1&#10;\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;center\ ( h, k)\\&#10;vertices\ ( h,  k\pm a)\\&#10;c=\textit{distance from}\\&#10;\qquad \textit{center to foci}\\&#10;\qquad \sqrt{ a ^2 + b ^2}\\&#10;asymptotes\quad  y= k\pm \cfrac{a}{b}(x- h)&#10;\end{cases}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------

\bf \begin{cases}&#10;h=2\\&#10;k=-3\\&#10;a=6\\&#10;c=2\sqrt{10}&#10;\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{[y- (-3)]^2}{ 6^2}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ b^2}=1&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{(y+3)^2}{ 36}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ b^2}=1&#10;\\\\\\&#10;c^2=a^2+b^2\implies (2\sqrt{10})^2=6^2+b^2\implies 2^2(\sqrt{10})^2=36+b^2&#10;\\\\\\&#10;4(10)=36+b^2\implies 40=36+b^2\implies 4=b^2&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\sqrt{4}=b\implies 2=b\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\cfrac{(y+3)^2}{ 36}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ 2^2}=1\implies \cfrac{(y+3)^2}{ 36}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ 4}=1

A rock is thrown upward from a bridge that is 57 feet above a road. The rock reaches its maximum height above the road 0.76 seco
bekas [8.4K]

answer:

f(t) = -9.9788169(t -0.76)^2 +57

Step-by-step explanation:

On this question we see that we are given two points on a certain graph that has a maximum point at 57 feet and in 0.76 seconds after it is thrown, we know can say this point is a turning point of a graph of the rock that is thrown as we are told that the function f determines the rocks height above the road (in feet) in terms of the  number of seconds t since the rock was thrown therefore this turning point coordinate can be written as (0.76, 57) as we are told the height represents y and x is represented by time in seconds. We are further given another point on the graph where the height is now 0 feet on the road then at this point its after 3.15 seconds in which the rock is thrown in therefore this coordinate is (3.15,0).

now we know if a rock is thrown it moves in a shape of a parabola which we see this equation is quadratic. Now we will use the turning point equation for a quadratic equation to get a equation for the height which the format is f(x)= a(x-p)^2 +q  , where (p,q) is the turning point. now we substitute the turning point

f(t) = a(t-0.76)^2 + 57, now we will substitute the other point on the graph or on the function that we found which is (3.15, 0) then solve for a.

0 = a(3.15 - 0.76)^2 + 57

-57 =a(2.39)^2  

-57 = a(5.7121)

-57/5.7121 =a

-9.9788169 = a      then we substitute a to get the quadratic equation therefore f is

f(t) = -9.9788169(t-0.76)^2 +57
