Y = mx + b
slope(m) = -1/2
(6,-6)....x = 6 and y = -6
now we sub into the formula and find b, the y int
-6 = -1/2(6) + b
-6 = - 3 + b
-6 + 3 = b
-3 = b

so ur equation is : y = -1/2x - 3 <==

Answer:

811 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

When finding height difference, you use absolute value, so everything is positive. 747+64 = 811, so your answer is 811 feet.

Hope this helps!

The parabola is looking down, so it can be A. or D.
The colored area is inside the parabola, that means that values of y inside the parabola is less than values of y of the parabola.
So,
the answer is D. f(x)< -x²+x-1

Answer:

$5P3*6C4=60*15=900$

Step-by-step explanation:

$5P3$ refers to the permutations of 5 items taken 3 at a time. To evaluate this, we use factorials as follows;

$5P3=\frac{5!}{(5-3)!}$

The factorial of an integer n is evaluated as;

$n!=n*(n-1)*(n-2)*(n-3).......3*2*1$

Using this concept, the above expression can now be simplified as follows;

$5P3=\frac{5!}{2!}=\frac{5*4*3*2!}{2!}=5*4*3=60$

Therefore, the permutations of 5 items taken 3 at a time is 60.

The next expression, $6C4$ refers to the combinations of 6 items taken 4 at a time. The simplification utilizes similar concepts of permutations since we shall be involving factorials;
