Well I am going to assume you need slope-intercept form. So the equation is y=mx+b. m is slope, b is y intercept. So you just plug it in -6= -1/2(6)+b. -6=-3+b. Now you figure out for b so what does b have to be to make the equation equal. Well -3 so -6=-3+-3, or -6=-6. 

y=-1/2x-3

A sample of students is taken from the school's A honor roll. The school estimates that there are actually 360 students on the A
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

360 - Y

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information provided in the question, we will understand that the question lacks detailed information.

Given that:

The total number of actual students on the A honor roll = 360

To find the number of students on the A honor roll of 8th graders;

Let denote Y to represent the total number of students who exist on the A honor roll except for the 8th graders.

Then:

The number of 8th graders = all number of students on are on the A honor roll - Y

The number of 8th graders = 360 - Y

If Y is known, then the number of the 8th graders can be fully determined.

What are the focus and directrix of the parabola that is the graph of the function f(x)=x²?
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y=x^2

comparing it with standard equation x^2=4ay

so 4a=1

a=\frac{1}{4}

so Focus of parabola is (0,0)

directrix

y=-a

here a=\frac{1}{4}

y=-\frac{1}{4}

The vertex of this parabola is at (-3, 6). Which of the following could be its equation?
12345 [234]
Nice, already in vertex form
y=a(x-h)^2+k
(h,k) is vertex

therfor since (-3,6) is vertex
we are looking for something like
y=a(x-(-3))^2+6 simplified to
y=a(x+3)^2+6
