Linear functions can be written in the form y=mx+b, where:
y is a y coordinate on the line
m is the slope of the line
x is the x coordinate on the line that corresponds with the y coordinate in the equation
b is the y-intercept of the line
So for the equation y=-10x+1:
m=-10 and b=1 so the slope of the line is -10, and the y-intercept is 1. Your answer is B.
The point-slope form of the equation of a straight line is:
We have:
Substitute:
Answer: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
As tangents drawn from a common external point to a circle are congruent,
- 8x - 7 = 6x + 7
- 2x - 7 = 7 [subtract 2x from both sides]
- 2x = 14 [add 7 to both sides]
- x = 7 [divide both sides by 2]
A pentagon only has one line of symmetry.
P(x) = 1 - 2x² +3x +2x⁵
has one variable, x, and has terms of degree 0, 2, 1, and 5. The highest degree is 5, so it is a 5th-degree polynomial in x.
