Answer:

y-intercept: (0,3)

x-intercept: (-6,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

put equation into y=mx+b

-x+2y=6 (add x to both sides)

2y=6+x (divide both sides by 2)

y=.5x+3

find y-intercept

set x=0

solve for y, y=3

y-intercept (0,3)

find x-intercept

set y=0

solve for x, x=-6

x-intercept (-6,0)

graph and table confirm values

How do you solve for the slope of a line with the equation ax^2 + bx + c?

ololo11 [35]

<h2>The graph of y = ax^2 + bx + c </h2><h2>A nonlinear function that can be written on the standard form </h2><h2>ax2+bx+c,where a≠0 </h2><h2>All quadratic functions has a U-shaped graph called a parabola. The parent quadratic function is </h2><h2> y=x2 </h2><h2> The lowest or the highest point on a parabola is called the vertex. The vertex has the x-coordinate </h2><h2>x=−b2a </h2><h2>The y-coordinate of the vertex is the maximum or minimum value of the function. </h2><h2>a > 0 parabola opens up minimum value </h2><h2>a < 0 parabola opens down maximum value </h2><h2> A rule of thumb reminds us that when we have a positive symbol before x2 we get a happy expression on the graph and a negative symbol renders a sad expression. </h2><h2>The vertical line that passes through the vertex and divides the parabola in two is called the axis of symmetry. The axis of symmetry has the equation </h2><h2>x=−b2a </h2><h2>The y-intercept of the equation is c. </h2><h2> When you want to graph a quadratic function you begin by making a table of values for some values of your function and then plot those values in a coordinate plane and draw a smooth curve through the points.</h2>

Which of the following are geometric sequences?<br> Check all that apply.

kolezko [41]

Answers:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two general types of sequences that follow a pattern, geometric and arithmetic. Let's see the difference between the two:

An arithmetic sequence is produced by adding the same number to all the terms in the sequence.

EXAMPLE:

5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17 (The number 2 is added to all terms)

To figure out if a sequence is arithmetic, subtract the first term from the second, then the second from the third and so on until you have checked all the terms.

7 - 5 = 2

9 - 7 = 2

11 - 9 = 2

13 - 11 = 2

15 - 13 = 2

17 - 15 = 2

All results equal 2, so the sequence is arithmetic

From your list: The following sequences are arithmetic

A. 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 (common difference of 5)

The next type of sequence is the geometric sequence.

A geometric sequence is produced when the all the terms in the sequence are multiplied or divided by the same number.

EXAMPLE:

100, 50, 25 (Each term is divided by 2)

To figure this out, we divide each term in the sequence by the next term.

100 / 50 = 2

50 / 25 = 2

All results are two, so this sequence can be confirmed to be geometric

From your list: The following sequences are geometric

C. 10, 5, 2.5, 1.25, 0.625, 0.3125 (common quotient of 2)

D. -9, -3, -1, -1/3, -1/9, -1/27 (common quotient of -3)

There is one final type of sequence, which has no common difference, sum, quotient, or product.

EXAMPLE:

5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 14, 15

This sequence has a pattern, the differences between the numbers are not common.

6 - 5 = 1

8 - 6 = 2

9 - 8 = 1

11 - 9 = 2

12 - 11 = 1

14 - 12 = 2

15 - 14 = 1

From your list: The following sequences are neither geometric nor arithmetic

B. 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13 (No pattern)

I'n always happy to help :)
