When asked to write a point slope equation for a line passing through the points (-4,-7) and (3,2) a student wrote y-2=-9/7(x-3)

. How can he fix this to write the correct equation

First let's find the slope
Slope formula: 
\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =slope
Given the two coordinates: 
(-4,-7) (3,2) 
 x1,y1  x2,y2

Plug these numbers into the formula
\frac{2-(-7)}{3-(-4)} = \frac{9}{7}
In this case the mistake that was made was that the student wrote the slope negative instead of positive
Final answer: 
<span>y-2=9/7(x-3)</span>

Given the parabola whose equation is , find the focus and determine if the parabola opens up or down.
ziro4ka [17]
The equation of a parabola is:
y = ax {}^{2}  + bx + c
If a>0, then the parabola opens up;
If a<0, then the parabola opens down.
The coordinates of focus are:
( -  \frac{b}{2a}  \:  \:   \frac{1 - b {}^{2}  + 4ac}{4a} )

Could someone please help me with this question? 15 points.
polet [3.4K]
1a) f(x) = I x+2 I. This is a piece-wise graph ( V form)
      x = 0 →f(x) =2 (intercept y-axis)
      x = -2→f(x) = 0 (intercept x-axis)
      x = -3→f(x) = 1 (don't forget this is in absolute numbers)
      x = -4→f(x) = 2 (don't forget this is in absolute numbers)
Now you can graph the V graph

1b) Translation: x to shift (-3) units and y remains the same, then
      f(x-3) = I x - 3 + 2 I = I x-1 I
     the V graph will shift one unit to the right, keeping the same y. Proof:
     f(x) = I x-1 I . Intercept x-axis when I x-1 I = 0, so x= 1
