<u>Answer-</u>
<em>The statement that f(x) = |x+a| + b has exactly one x-intercept is sometimes correct.</em>
<u>Solution-</u>
It solely depends on b, whether the function will have one or two or zero x intercept.
This plot of the given function, f(x) = |x+a| + b will be the basic absolute value graph i.e V shape, with vertex translated to (-a, b), instead of origin.
1- If b is zero, the graph will have exactly one x-intercept, at x= -a
2- If b is positive, the whole graph will be above the x-axis, hence it will have no x-intercepts.
3- If b is negative, the graph will be below the x-axis, hence it will have two x-intercepts.
∴ The statement is sometimes true.
Answer:
Okay so for finding the equation of a line, which is a function, the equation is set to y, so you can eliminate A and B. When the slope of an equation is 0, we are saying that the y value of any point of the line is going to be the same, which is 9 from the given point (2,9).
So the answer is C. y=9

Answer:
x = −10 and x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
x2 + 6x = 40
Subtract 40 from each side
x^2 + 6x -40 =0
Factor, what 2 numbers multiply to -40 and add to 6
10 * -4 = -40 10+-4 = 6
(x+10) (x-4) = 0
Using the zero product property
x+10 =0 x-4=0
x=-10 x=4
