Graph A is correct. The ≥ sign is correct because the gray area is above the red. x^2 has a positive coefficient which corresponds to the opening-up parabola.
slope = y2-y1 over x2-x1
-1 - 4= -5
-8-0 - -8
so you get -5/-8
negative divided by negative = positive
slope = 5/8
A m8 the rule is to divide by 2
Answer:
The desired equation is y = x + 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
As we move right from (-2,6) to (4,12), x increases by 6 and y also increases by 6. Thus, the slope, m, m = rise / run, is m = 6/6, or just m = 1.
Start with the slope intercept form y = mx + b. Since m = 1, we now have y = x + b. Subbing 4 for x, 12 for y, we can find b: 12 = 4 + b. Thus, b = 8.
The desired equation is y = x + 8.
