Answer:

Option C is correct.

The equation f(x)= -\frac{1}{2}x +4 represents the function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using slope intercept form to find the equation of line :

For any two points (x_1, y_1) and  (x_2, y_2) the equation of line is given by:

y -y _1 = m(x-x_1) ......[1] ;where m is the slope given by:

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Consider any two points from table :

let (4, 2) and (0, 4) be any two points.

calculate slope:

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}= \frac{4-2}{0-4}

m = \frac{2}{-4} = -\frac{1}{2}

Now, substitute in equation [1]  we have:

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

Distributive property i.e,  a\cdot (b+c) = a\cdot b + a\cdot c

y -2 = -\frac{1}{2}x +2

Add both sides 2 we get;

y -2+2 = -\frac{1}{2}x+2+2

Simplify:

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

Since, y= f(x)

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

therefore, the equation f(x)= -\frac{1}{2}x +4 represents the function.

Evaluate the expression:<br><br> x^2+2x−xy when x = 250 and y = −120
NikAS [45]

Answer:

33000

Step-by-step explanation:

Substituting 250 for x and -120 for y, we get:

(250)^2 + 2(250) - (250)(120)  =  62500 + 500 - 30000, or

32500 + 500, or 33000

I’m confused on the type of angles these are and how to solve them . (Parallel lines and Transversals)
svp [43]

Answer:

7) 49°

8) 77°

9) 87°

10) 135°

Step-by-step explanation:

7) The angles are between the parallel lines, so are "interior." They are on opposite sides of the transversal, so are "opposite interior" angles. Such angles are congruent, so ...

... ? ≅ 49°

8) The angles are adjacent interior angles, so are supplementary.

... ? + 103° = 180°

... ? = 77°

9) The angles are outside the parallel lines, so are "exterior." They are on opposite sides of the transversal, so are "opposite exterior" angles. Such angles are congruent.

... ? ≅ 87°

10) These are vertical angles, so are congruent. (The other parallel line is irrelevant and doesn't need to be there for this relationship to be true.)

... ? ≅ 135°
