Step-by-step explanation:
Depends on what you mean by multiplying by - 1. I assume you are not going to multiply the y or f(x) term by - 1.
If that is so, take an example. Suppose you have a graph that is y=x^2
That's a parabola that opens upwards and it has a line going through its focus which is a point on the +y axis.
When you multiply the right hand side by - 1, the graph you get will be y = - x^2.
That opens downward and the focus is on the - y axis.
That means that the effect of the graph is that it flips over the x axis, which I think is the third answer.
A could be 2 while B could be 3, so -2a+3b turns into -4+9, which equals 5.
From what I know you can't really solve a a single equation with two-variables so it's just a matter of trial and error.
Just try plugging in a small number like 2 for a just to try it and you get 8b^2=72.
Divide everything by 8 to isolate b and you get that b^2=9.
Square root everything and you'll find that b=3. This is just one possible combination, I'm sure there are many more but this is obviously the one that was intended to be found.
Now that we know that a=2 and b=3 just plug them into the equation.
-2(2)+3(3)=?
-4+9=?
5
Sorry about having to use this ^ symbol, the equation maker is not working.
