Find the rate of change for a linear function that passes through the points (-5, 1) and (1, 10).

1 answer:

8 0

The slope of the function for rise/run would be 3/2, this is because;
The function passes through (-5,1) and (1,10). Lets find the change on the y and x axis.
For the x axis;
-5 to 1.
That is a change of positive 6.
-5+6=1
For the y axis;
1 to 10.
That is a change of positive 9.
1+9=10
For the slope we must put rise (change in y axis) over run (change in x axis) to get 3/2 when simplified from 9/6.
For every 2 units of rise in the x axis the y axis rises by 3.

Please help!!

Kryger [21]

Switch y=2x+7 to 2x-y=-7 then multiply that equation by 2 to cancel out the y's. that ends up as 4x-2y=-14 which then you get x=-24. then you substitute x into one of the original equations y= 2(-24)+7 which equals y=-41

3x^2 + 4x = -8<br> solve using quadratic formula

Firdavs [7]

Use the quadratic equation to solve this (image of the quadratic equation is below)

Remember that quadratic functions are set up like so:

$ax^{2} +bx +c = 0$

To make the equation 3x² + 4x = -8 into a quadratic function you must bring -8 to the left side of the equation so it equals zero. To do this add 8 to both sides

3x² + 4x + 8= -8 + 8

3x² + 4x + 8 = 0

That means that in this equation...

a = 3

b = 4

c = 8

^^^Plug these numbers into the quadratic equation and solve (Keep in mind that +/- is ± )

$\frac{-4+/-\sqrt{(4)^{2}-4(3)(8)}}{2(3)}$

$\frac{-4+/-\sqrt{16-96}}{6}$

$\frac{-4+/-\sqrt{-80}}{6}$

^^^There is no real solution to this equation. You must have an imaginary solution

$\frac{-4+/-i\sqrt{80}}{6}$

Simplify

$\frac{-2+/-2i \sqrt{5}}{3}$

Hope this helped!
