Answer:

Y= -1/2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a line is Y=Mx+B

M stands for the Slope.

-Slope is rise/run. So, for this graph the line "rises" 1 point and "runs" left 2 points until meeting the line again. This slope is negative because it "runs" to the left.

B stands for the Y-Intercept

-The Y-intercept is the point at which the line crosses the Y axis. For this example, the line crosses the Y-intercept at (0,1).

The 9th graders are selling tickets to raise

Sidana [21]

Answer:

There were 30 children and 10 adults.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they sold tickets to adults and childrens, the sum of those tickets must be equal to the total tickets that were sold, so we can mount our first equation as shown below:

adult + children = 40

Each adult ticket costs $9 and each children costs $5 and the total recieved was $240, therefore:

9*adult + 5*children = 240

We can mount the following equation system:

adult + children = 40

9*adult + 5*children = 240

We will multiply the first equation by -5 and sum both equations:

-5*adult -5*children = -200

9*adult + 5*children = 240

4*adult = 40

adult = 40 / 4

adult = 10

adult + children = 40

children = 40 - adult = 40 - 10 = 30

There were 30 children and 10 adults.

The graphs of g(x) = x³- ax² + 6 and h(x) = 2x² + bx + 3 touch when x = 1. Therefore, the tangent to

Olegator [25]

Answer:

$(1,\, 10)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Differentiate each function to find an expression for its gradient (slope of the tangent line) with respect to $x$ . Make use of the power rule to find the following:

$g^\prime(x) = 3\, x^2 - 2\, a\, x$ .

$h^\prime(x) = 2\, (2\, x) + b = 4\, x + b$ .

The question states that the graphs of $g(x)$ and $h(x)$ touch at $x = 1$ , such that $g^\prime(1) = h^\prime(1)$ . Therefore:

$3 - 2\, a = 4 + b$ .

On the other hand, since the graph of $g(x)$ and $h(x)$ coincide at $x = 1$ , $g(1) = h(1)$ (otherwise, the two graphs would not even touch at that point.) Therefore:

$1 - a + 6 = 2 + b + 3$ .

Solve this system of two equations for $a$ and $b$ :

$\begin{aligned}& a + b = 2 \\ & 2\, a + b = -1\end{aligned}$ .

Therefore, $a = -3$ whereas $b = 5$ .

Substitute these two values back into the expression for $g(x)$ and $h(x)$ :

$g(x) = x^3 + 3\, x^2 + 6$ .

$h(x) = 2\, x^2 + 5\, x + 3$ .

Evaluate either expression at $x = 1$ to find the $y$ -coordinate of the intersection. For example, $g(1) = 1 + 3 + 6 = 10$ . Similarly, $h(1) = 2 + 5 + 3 = 10$ .

Therefore, the intersection of these two graphs would be at $(1,\, 10)$ .
