Answer:
C. Slope is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this equation is written in the y=mx+b equation, 2 would be the slope, because any number that comes before x (AKA "m") is always the slope. For example, if you were trying to find the slope for the equation y=4x+19, 4 would be the slope.
Hi there!
a. 8x^2 - 1
(x^2 - 4x + 5) + (7x^2 + 4x - 6)
= x^2 + 7x^2 - 4x + 4x - 1
= 8x^2 - 1
b. 5x^2 + 7x - 7
(7x^2 + 4x - 6) - (2x^2 - 3x + 1)
= 7x^2 + 4x - 6 - 2x^2 + 3x - 1
= 7x^2 - 2x^2 + 4x + 3x - 6 - 1
= 5x^2 + 7x -7
Hope this helps!
Answer:
y = 
Step-by-step explanation:
The function will be cubic. The x-intercepts are -4, -1, and 2
The constant factor is -1 because the graph falls on the right. So,
y = -(x + 4)(x + 1)(x - 2)
y = -
Here's a pattern to consider:
1+100=101
2+99=101
3+98=101
4+97=101
5+96=101
.....
This question relates to the discovery of Gauss, a mathematician. He found out that if you split 100 from 1-50 and 51-100, you could add them from each end to get a sum of 101. As there are 50 sets of addition, then the total is 50×101=5050
So, the sum of the first 100 positive integers is 5050.
Quick note
We can use a formula to find out the sum of an arithmetic series:

Where s is the sum of the series and n is the number of terms in the series. It works for the above problem.
