Answer:

D) \displaystyle -\frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>B</em>[3, −3] and <em>A</em>[−5, 3]

\displaystyle \frac{-y_1 + y_2}{-x_1 + x_2} = m \\ \\ \frac{-3 - 3}{5 + 3} = -\frac{6}{8} = -\frac{3}{4}

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

For this case we have that by definition, the slope of a line is given by:

m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}}

Where:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1})and (x_ {2}, y_ {2})are two points through which the line passes.

According to the image we have:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (-5,3)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (3, -3)

Substituting we have:

m = \frac {-3-3} {3 - (- 5)} = \frac {-6} {3 + 5} = \frac {-6} {8} = - \frac {3} {4}

Thus, the slope of the line is:

m = - \frac {3} {4}

Answer:

m = - \frac {3} {4}

Answer:

x intercept: (3, 0), (7, 0)

y-intercept: (0, -21)

vertex : (5,4)

the graph points down

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = - (x - 3)(x - 7)

f(x) = - (x^2 - 7x - 3x + 21)

f(x) = - (x^2 - 10x + 21)

f(x) = -x^2 + 10x - 21

x-intercept when f(x) = 0 so

x - 3 = 0; x = 3

x - 7 = 0; x = 7

x intercept: (3, 0), (7, 0)

y-intercept when x = 0  so  y = -21

y-intercept: (0, -21)

vertex:

x = -b/2a

x = -10/ 2(-1)

x = 5

plug in x = 5 into the equation to find y

y = -(5)^2 + 10(5) - 21

y = -25 + 50 - 21

y = 4

so vertex : (5,4)

Since a = - 1<0, the graph is going downward and has maximum
