Answer:

The equation of the line is y = \frac{4}{3} x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the equation that passes through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is y = m x + b, where

  • m is the slope of the line whose rule is m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}
  • b is the y-intercept, you can find it by substituting x, y in the equation by (x1, y1) OR (x2, y2)

Let us solve the question:

∵ The line passes through the points (-3, -2) and (3, 6)

∴ x1 = -3 and x2 = 3

∴ y1 = -2 and y2 = 6

→ Use the rule of m to find it

∵ m=\frac{6-(-2)}{3-(-3)}=\frac{6+2}{3+3}=\frac{8}{6}

→ Simplify it by dividing up and down by 2

∴ m = \frac{4}{3}

→ Substitute its value in the form of the equation above

∴ y = \frac{4}{3} x + b

→ To find b substitute x and y by x1 and y1

∴ -2 = \frac{4}{3} (-3) + b

∴ -2 = -4 + b

→ Add 4 to both sides

∴ -2 + 4 = -4 + 4 + b

∴ 2 = b

→ Substitute it in the form of the equation

∴ y = \frac{4}{3} x + 2

∴ The equation of the line is y = \frac{4}{3} x + 2

Think about all of the ways in which a circle and a parabola can intersect.
xeze [42]

There will be four ways a circle and a parabola can intersect because the solution of the quartic equation will be 4.

<h3>What is a circle?</h3>

It is described as a set of points, where each point is at the same distance from a fixed point (called the center of a circle)

We have a circle and a parabola:

As we know the standard form of a circle:

\rm (x-h)^2 +(y-k)^2=r^2

The standard form of the parabola:

\rm y = a(x-h)^2+k  

If we plug the value of y from the parabola equation in the circle equation, we get a quartic equation(4th order equation)

The solution of the quartic equation will be 4.

Thus, there will be four ways a circle and a parabola can intersect because the solution of the quartic equation will be 4.

Identify each sequence as arithmetic or geometric. Explain your answer, and write an explicit formula for the
NeX [460]

Answer:

Geometric Sequence

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case it is Geometric Sequence as it has a common ratio of 5

Formula for nth term: a(n) = ar∧n-1

so if we take the third term we will calculate as follows:

50 = 2(r)∧3-1

50÷2 = r∧2

√25= r

r=5
