Yeah, where I live, to find the slope (or as we call it, the gradient), you just have to do the two y values subtracted from each other, over the two x values subtracted from each other. The important thing is to remember that if you subtract the first y value from the second (so, 12 - 8), you have to do the same thing for the x (6 - 2)
=
= 1.
The slope is 1.
(2,-1), (-4,17).
Step-by-step explanation:
Equate the equation A and equation B
Convert the quadratic equation in factored form
Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation
Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.
Rewrite as perfect squares
Square root both sides
Find the values of y
Substitute the value of x in the equation B
Answer:
y = 
x
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a line passing through the origin is
y = mx ( m is the slope )
calculate m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 3) ← 2 points on the line
m = 
= 
=
y = x ← equation of line
Answer:
5000
Step-by-step explanation:
In vertex form, the cost function is ...
C(x) = 3(x² -10x) +175 = 3(x² -10x +25) +175 -3(25)
C(x) = 3(x -5)² +100
The vertex is at x=5, so the cost function will be minimized when 5000 speed boats are produced.
