Answer:
y=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Read off the graph. The corresponding y-coordinate when the x-coordinate is 7 is 4.
Moving from a to b, the x component of the desired vector is 7-(-9) = 16, and
the y component is 3-9 = -6.
So the vector from a to b is <16,-6>, and the magnitude is
sqrt(16^2 + (-6)^2 ), applying the Pythagorean Theorem.
4x^2-5x-14 is your answer :)
