Answer:
(x, y) = (-1, -16) or (3, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Perhaps you want to solve the system of equations ...
- y = x^2 +2x -15
- y -4x = -12
Substituting the first expression for y into the second equation gives ...
x^2 +2x -15 -4x = -12
x^2 -2x -3 = 0 . . . . . . . . add 12
(x -3)(x +1) = 0 . . . . . . . factor
Solutions are the values of x that make the factors zero: x = 3, x = -1.
The corresponding values of y are ...
y = -12 +4x
y = -12 +4{-1, 3} = -12 +{-4, 12} = {-16, 0}
The solutions to the system are ...
(x, y) = (-1, -16) or (3, 0)
Answer:
slope = - 
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the slope m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 1)
m = 
= -
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that a cosine function is a reflection of its parent function over the x-axis. The amplitude of the function is 11, the vertical shift is 9 units down, and the period of the function is 
. The graph of the function does not show a phase shift. We are asked to write the equation of our function.
We know that general form a cosine function is 
, where,
A = Amplitude,
= Period,
c = Horizontal shift,
d = Vertical shift.
The equation of parent cosine function is 
. Since function is reflected about x-axis, so our function will be 
.
Let us find the value of b.
Upon substituting our given values in general cosine function, we will get:
Therefore, our required function would be .
