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).

Svet_ta [14]

Answer: 38090 fish

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the equation 55,000(.96)^9. Start with the initial number in this case it is 55,000 then multiply by the percentage that remains (100% - 4% = 96%) and then put it to the ninth power because that is how many years the problem is asking for.

If I have something like -x^2 when I plug the number in, will it be positive or negative and why
MrRissso [65]
The order of operations tells you exponentiation is done before multiplication or addition. That is, the value of x is squared before the sign is applied.

Your result will be negative for any non-zero value of x.
