This function would have a maximum.
Since we are subtracting by a -4 for each increase in x, we know that the numbers will continue to go down. Given this fact, we know the number will never be higher than when we started, but the number could go infinitely low. As a result we have a maximum and no minimum.
A. y=2x
because slope-intercept form is y=mx+b. m= slope & b= y-int. The y-int is at the origin, so therefore y=0. The slope is 2, so therefore the answer is y=2x
Answer:
y = mx + b
Step-by-step explanation:
b is your y intercept while m is your slope which is just rise over run.
They want the point D such that D is equally distant away from the three gates. Call the gates A, B, and C
They want
AD = BD = CD
If we draw a circle through those three points, then point D would be the center
This circle is known as the circumcircle as it goes through the three points
The center D is the circumcenter
So all you have to do is find the perpendicular bisector of two segments of the triangle, say of AB and BC. Then find where those perpendicular bisectors meet. That intersection would be point D.
Since we don't have actual numbers or coordinates to work with, we can't go further and actually find out where point D is located in terms of (x,y) coordinates. However, you can still get a good idea using a compass and straightedge.
