Answer:

y=-1/2x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the points to find the slope of the line.

Equation: y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

2-4/-2-(-6)

2-4/-2+6

-2/4

-1/2 is the slope of the line

So the equation is y=-1/2x+b

We can substitute one of the x-coordinates and the matching y-coordinate into this equation:

2=-1/2*(-2)+b

2=1+b

1=b

b=1

Therefore, the equation is y=-1/2x+1

Suppose f(x) = x^2 and g(x) = (1/4)^2. Which statement best compares the graph of g(x) with the graph of f(x)
hjlf

Answer:

g(x) is the image of f(x) after stretched horizontally by scale factor = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that best compares the graph of  g(x) with the graph of f(x) says g(x) is the image of f(x) after stretched horizontally by scale factor = 4 because:

Given the function

f(x) = x²  and g(x) = (1/4x)² the image of f(x) after one transformation.  

The transformation shows that g(x) stretches away from y-axis.  

Since the transformation is stretched horizontally. So g(x) is the image of f(x) after stretched horizontally by scale factor (I.e. by 1).

Then we use the scale factor to divide g(x)

1 ÷ ¼ = 1 x 4/1 = 4  

So therefore, g(x) is the image of f(x) after stretched horizontally by scale factor = 4

(-1/4)x + 2 = 8

Multiply all terms by 4.

(-1)x + 8 = 32

Simplify.

-x + 8 = 32

Subtract 8 from both sides.

-x = 24

Multiply both sides by -1.

x = -24.

<h3>The value of x is equal to -24.</h3>

-1/4(-24) + 2 = 8
