Answer:

D. y-7=\frac{1}{4}(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of a line is given by:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

The line given to us has equation; y=-4x+8.

The slope of this line is -4. The of the line perpendicular to this line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line.

Our slope of interest is therefore; m=\frac{1}{4}

Since the point goes through (-2,7), we have x_1=-2,y_1=7.

We plug in the slope and the point into the point-slope formula to obain;

y-7=\frac{1}{4}(x--2)

The required equation is:

y-7=\frac{1}{4}(x+2)

f(x)=(x+3)(x-4) and g(x)=1/3(x+3)(x-4). the graphs of each are shown here. Which graph represents which polynomial function? exp
zvonat [6]

This is about interpretation of quadratic equation graphs.

<u><em>- The parabola that is continuous represents f(x) = (x+3)(x-4)</em></u>

<u><em>- The parabola that is a broken line represents g(x) = 1/3(x+3)(x-4)</em></u>

<u><em>- This is because calculating their y-intercept respectively corresponds with what is on the graph.</em></u>

  • We are given;

a) f(x) = (x+3)(x-4)

Let us confirm the x-intercept.

x-intercept here is when y = 0.

Thus, at y = 0; x + 3 = 0 and x - 4 = 0

Thus, at y = 0; x = -3 and y = 4

  • Let's now find the y-intercept;

y-intercept occurs when x = 0

Thus; y - intercept = (0 + 3)(0 - 4)

y - intercept = -12

  • Looking at the graph given, the only one that has it's y-intercept as -12 is the graph that has a continuous line.

  • This means the other graph that has dashed line would represent the other polynomial g(x)=1/3(x + 3)(x - 4)

Evaluate the Expression when b=3<br><br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%7Bb%7D%5E%7B2%7D%20%20-%206b%20-%205" id="TexFormu

Now let’s evaluate this down if b=3 then you do 3x3 because b is squared which equals 9 then we do 6b which is 18, so 9-18 is (-9) then we do -9 - 5 which is -14
