The answer is D. y + 3 = -6(x + 9)

Using slope-intercept form, y = mx + b where m = slope and b = y-intercept:

We know our slope is -6. This can be interpreted as -6/1, which rise-over-run-wise, means that when y changes by 6, x changes inversely by 1.
To find that y-intercept, though, we need to find the value of y when x = 0.
Use our point (-9, -3) to find this...
We want to add 9 to x so that it becomes 0.
According to our slope, this means subtracting 54 from y.
Our y-intercept is at (0, -57), with -57 being the value of b we put in our equation.

\boxed{y=-6x-57}

You could also just use point-slope form:
y - y¹ = m(x - x¹)
y - (-3) = -6(x - (-9))
y + 3 = -6(x + 9)
And convert to slope-intercept if you want:
y + 3 = -6x - 54
y = -6x - 57

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs. Not all tiles will be used. Match each quadratic equation with its so
Anon25 [30]

The quadratic equations and their solutions are;

9 ± √33 /4 = 2x² - 9x + 6.

4 ± √6 /2 = 2x² - 8x + 5.

9 ± √89 /4 = 2x² - 9x - 1.

4 ± √22 /2 = 2x² - 8x - 3.

Explanation:

  • Any quadratic equation of the form, ax² + bx + c = 0 can be solved using the formula x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a. Here a, b, and c are the coefficients of the x², x, and the numeric term respectively.
  • We have to solve all of the five equations to be able to match the equations with their solutions.
  • 2x² - 8x + 5, here a = 2, b = -8, c = 5.                                                  x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a = -(-8) ± √(-8)² - 4(2)(5) / 2(2) = 8 ± √64 - 40/4.     24 can also be written as 4 × 6 and √4 = 2. So                                                                                     x = 8 ± 2√6 / 2×2= 4±√6/2.
  • 2x² - 10x + 3, here a = 2, b = -10, c = 3.                                                   x =-b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a =-(-10) ± √(-10)² - 4(2)(3) / 2(4) = 10 ± √100 + 24/4. 124 can also be written as 4 × 31 and √4 = 2. So                                                                              x = 10 ± 2√31 / 2×2 = 5 ± √31 /2.
  • 2x² - 8x - 3, here a = 2, b = -8, c = -3.                                                    x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a = -(-8) ± √(-8)² - 4(2)(-3) / 2(2) = 8 ± √64 + 24/4.     88 can also be written as 4 × 22 and √4 = 2. So                                                                             x = 8 ± 2√22 / 2×2 = 4± √22/2.
  • 2x² - 9x - 1, here a = 2, b = -9, c = -1.                                                     x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a = -(-9) ± √(-9)² - 4(2)(-1) / 2(2) = 9 ± √81 + 8/4.                                          x = 9 ± √89 / 4.
  • 2x² - 9x + 6, here a = 2, b = -9, c = 6.                                                    x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a = -(-9) ± √(-9)² - 4(2)(6) / 2(2) = 9 ± √81 - 48/4.                                                                             x = 9 ± √33 / 4 .

Sarah hiked a path that took her from 34 feet below sea level to 52 feet above sea level . What was the change in her elevation?
Ugo [173]

Answer:

86 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>First method: Logical thinking</em>

Think of the position 34 ft below sea level as -34.

The position above sea level is 52.

You need to find the distance between -34 and 52.

You go from 34 ft below sea level, -34 to 0. That is 34 ft.

Then you go from sea level, 0 ft, to 52 ft above sea level. That is 52 ft.

The total is 34 ft + 52 ft = 86 ft

Answer: 86 ft

<em>Second method: Calculate a distance in math</em>

The distance between two points on a number line is the absolute value of the difference of their coordinates. The coordinates are -34 and 52. Subtract the numbers in either order, and take the absolute value of the difference.

|-34 - 52| = |-86| = 86

If you did it in the other order, you'd get the same answer.

|52 - (-34)| = |52 + 34| = |86| = 86

Answer: 86 ft
