Answer:

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (3, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 9, 6)

m = \frac{6-2}{-9-3} = \frac{4}{-12} = - \frac{1}{3}, hence

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (- 9, 6), then

6 = 3 + c ⇒ c = 6 - 3 = 3

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + 3 ← in slope- intercept form

Which is bigger 2/5 or 4/9
Jlenok [28]
The easiest way to solve this comparison without any unusual comparisons is to find a common denominator for the two fractions.

2/5 = 18/45
4/9 = 20/45

Since 20/45 is bigger than 18/45, we know that 4/9 is greater than 2/5

Complete the square to transform the expression x2 + 4x + 2 into the form a(x − h)2 + k.
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x^2 + 4x)      + 2

Take 1/2 of the linear term 4/2 = 2 and square that result. 2^2 = 4.

Put it after 4x

y = (x^2 + 4x + 4)   +2  Subtract what you put inside the brackets on the outside.

y = (x^2 + 4x + 4) + 2 - 4      Combine the right.

y = (x^2 + 4x + 4) - 2            Express the brackets as a square.

y = (x + 2)^2 - 2

That's your answer

a = 1

h = 2

k = -2

What is the square root of -1?
Alchen [17]

Answer: √−1=i.

Step-by-step explanation: When we say that the square root of a negative number "doesn't exist", we mean that there is no real number solution. However, if we consider complex numbers, we then get a solution to √−1=i.
