Answer:
It is indeed y = -4x
Step-by-step explanation:
We see that for every increase of 1 in the x direction, y goes down 4.
Pay attention to the scales of the x and y axes.
Slope = rise/run
we rise -4 and run 1.
so the slope is -4/1 = -4
The y-intercept is at (0,0)
So the equation is y = -4x
Answer:
46.9
Step-by-step explanation:
i looked it up
The answer is C because 48.9 multiplied by 21.2 is 1036.68
Y1 is the simplest parabola. Its vertex is at (0,0) and it passes thru (2,4). This is enough info to conclude that y1 = x^2.
y4, the lower red graph, is a bit more of a challenge. We can easily identify its vertex, which is (-4,0), and several points on the grah, such as (2,-3).
Let's try this: assume that the general equation for a parabola is
y-k = a(x-h)^2, where (h,k) is the vertex. Subst. the known values,
-3-(-4) = a(2-0)^2. Then 1 = a(2)^2, or 1 = 4a, or a = 1/4.
The equation of parabola y4 is y+4 = (1/4)x^2
Or you could elim. the fraction and write the eqn as 4y+16=x^2, or
4y = x^2-16, or y = (1/4)x - 4. Take your pick! Hope this helps you find "a" for the other parabolas.
