Answer:

y = 3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 4, - 8)

m = \frac{-8-4}{-4-0} = \frac{-12}{-4} = 3

Note the line passes through the y- axis at (0, 4) ⇒ c = 4

y = 3x + 4 ← equation of line

1.Show that the statement p: “If x is a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0, then x is 0” is true by
Genrish500 [490]

If x is a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0 then x is 0”.Let q: x is a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0 r: x is 0.i To show that statement p is true we assume that q is true and then show that r is true.Therefore let statement q be true.∴ x2 + 4x = 0 x x2 + 4 = 0⇒ x = 0 or x2+ 4 = 0However since x is real it is 0.Thus statement r is true.Therefore the given statement is true.ii To show statement p to be true by contradiction we assume that p is not true.Let x be a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0 and let x is not 0.Therefore x3 + 4x = 0 x x2+ 4 = 0 x = 0 or x2 + 4 = 0 x = 0 orx2 = – 4However x is real. Therefore x = 0 which is a contradiction since we have assumed that x is not 0.Thus the given statement p is true.iii To prove statement p to be true by contrapositive method we assume that r is false and prove that q must be false.Here r is false implies that it is required to consider the negation of statement r.This obtains the following statement.∼r: x is not 0.It can be seen that x2 + 4 will always be positive.x ≠ 0 implies that the product of any positive real number with x is not zero.Let us consider the product of x with x2 + 4.∴ x x2 + 4 ≠ 0⇒ x3 + 4x ≠ 0This shows that statement q is not true.Thus it has been proved that∼r ⇒∼qTherefore the given statement p is true.

given a polynomial function f(x) = -x^2 + 2x + 1 and an exponential function g(x) = 2x, what key features do f(x) and g(x) have
hoa [83]

This shows that both functions have the same y-intercept

<h3>Polynomial and exponential functions</h3>

Given the following functions as shown:

f(x) = -x^2 + 2x + 1

g(x) = 2^x

The y-intercept occurs at x = 0

For f(x) =  -x^2 + 2x + 1

f(0) =  -0^2 + 2(0) + 1

f(0) = 1

For the g(x),  the y intercept is caculated as:

g(0) = 2^0
g(0) = 1

This shows that both functions have the same y-intercept
