Answer:

The third option: "A coordinate plane with a line passing through (0, negative 4) and (2, 0)."

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the equation defined by the function: y = 2x - 4 to check the (x, y) values they give you. If they both render true mathematical statements, those are indeed points on the plane that belong to the given line.

For the third case; the pairs (0,-4) and (2,0), both satisfy the equation of the line that is given.

For (0,-4):  y = 2x - 4 becomes:

(-4)=2(0)-4\\-4=0-4\\-4=-4 which is a TRUE statement

For (2,0):  y = 2x - 4 becomes:

(0)=2(2)-4\\0=4-4\\0=0 which is also a TRUE statement.

This option is the only one that verifies both given points as truly being part of the given line.

Answer:  The correct option is

(C) A coordinate plane with a line passing through (0, negative 4) and (2, 0).

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to select the option that represents the following function :

y=2x-4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

Now, we know that the equation of a line passing through two points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by

y-b=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}(x-a).

<em><u>Option (A) :</u></em> The line passing through the points (-4, 0) and (0, 2) is

y-0=\dfrac{2-0}{0-(-4)}(x-(-4))\\\\\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{1}{2}(x+4)\\\\\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{1}{2}x+2, not same as equation (i).

So, option (A) is NOT correct.

<em><u>Option (B) :</u></em> The line passing through the points (0, -4) and (4, -2) is

y-(-4)=\dfrac{-2-(-4)}{4-0}(x-0)\\\\\\\Rightarrow y+4=\dfrac{1}{2}x\\\\\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{1}{2}x-4, not same as equation (i).

So, option (B) is NOT correct.

<em><u>Option (C) :</u></em> The line passing through the points (0, -4) and (2, 0) is

y-(-4)=\dfrac{0-(-4)}{2-0}(x-0)\\\\\\\Rightarrow y+4=2x\\\\\\\Rightarrow y=2x-4, which is same as equation (i).

So, option (C) is CORRECT.

<em><u>Option (D) :</u></em> The line passing through the points (-4, 0) and (-2, 4) is

y-0=\dfrac{4-0}{-2-(-4)}(x-(-4))\\\\\\\Rightarrow y=2(x-(-4))\\\\\\\Rightarrow y=2x+8, not same as equation (i).

So, option (D) is COT correct.

Thus, the correct option is (C).

Y=-2x graphed. had to put more words to put this out
timurjin [86]

Slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

"m" is the slope, "b" is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0, or (0,y))


slope=\frac{rise}{run}

Rise is the number of units you go up(+) or down(-)

Run is the number of units you go to the right


y = -2x

This has a y-intercept of 0, so the line intersects the y-axis/goes through the origin at (0,0)

The slope is -2 or \frac{-2}{1}, so from each point, you go down 2 units, and to the right 1 unit.

a survey of students in a school showed 1/2 of the students exercise regularly, 2/5 of the students exercise occasionally and th
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

add 2/5 and 1/2 then subtract from 1 whole to find the remainder

make it so they have the same denominator

2/5 = 4/10

1/2 = 5/10

4/10 + 5/10 = 9/10

1=10/10

10/10-9/10 = 1/10

so 1/10 of the students don't exercise at all
