Answer: y=x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

P=(x1,y1), and Q=(x2,y2), we use this to find m because m=y2-y1/x2-x1, by using this you'll see that the slope equals one. So now we have our slope. To solve for b, you need to do b=y1-m*x1, or b=y2-m^x2, it doesn't matter which one you do because the results will be the same, but it is good to check over it. Now that you have your slope and y-intercept, you can put it into the equation y=mx+b, so the answer to the problem is y=x-2.

Hope this helps, now you know the answer and how to do it. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great Valentines Day! :-)

A ball is thrown in the air from a ledge. Its height in feet is represented by f(x) = –16(x2 – 7x – 8), where x is the number of

lbvjy [14]

$f(x)=-16( x^{2} -7x-8)$

is the functions that determines the height of the ball in Feet, after x seconds being thrown.

so for example to calculate how many feet above the ground in the ball 5 seconds after being thrown, we calculate f(5)

$f(5)=-16( 5^{2} -7*5-8)=-16(25-35-8)=-16(-18)=288$ feet

to solve our problem we need to find x such that f(x)=0

so we solve :

$-16( x^{2} -7x-8)=0$

$x^{2} -7x-8=0$

using the quadratic formula, le a=1, b=-7, c=-8

$\sqrt{D} = \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac}= \sqrt{ (-7)^{2}-4(1)(-8) }= \sqrt{49+32}= \sqrt{81}=9$

so

$x_1= \frac{-b+ \sqrt{D} }{2a}= \frac{7+9}{2}= \frac{16}{2}=8$

$x_1= \frac{-b- \sqrt{D} }{2a}= \frac{7-9}{2}= \frac{-2}{2}=-1$ , which cannot be the solution to our problem.
