B, n to the 3rd power + 4n to the 2nd power +8n -16
Hi!
To solve this, we must make an equation in y = mx + b form, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Since we are looking at a graph with points, it saves us a TON of work, and all we have to do is simply look at the graph. We only need to find m and b, that's it!
M is the slope, and the slope can be represented by the change between points on a line, also known as <em>rise/run. </em>
If we start at point (-4, -1), and go to point (-2, 0), we can see that it goes up 1 and right 2, which would be represented as 1/2.
B is the y-intercept, and that is simply the point that is on the y-axis, which is the point (0, 1), so our number would be 1.
Therefore, plugging these numbers into the equation, our equation is y = <em>1/2</em>x + <em>1</em>

Hope this helps! :D

Step-by-step explanation: you flip the denominator and numerator and keep the negative
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The system of equations is given as
y=x^2-5x+7 - - - - - - - - - - 1
y=2x+1 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2
We would equate equation 1 to equation 2, it becomes
x^2-5x+7 = 2x+1
x^2-5x+7- 2x - 1 = 0
x^2-5x+7- 2x - 1 = 0
x^2 - 5x - 2x + 7 - 1 = 0
x^2 - 7x + 6 = 0
We would use the factorization method of solving quadratic equations.
x^2 - 6x - x + 6 = 0
x(x - 6) - 1(x - 6)
(x - 6)(x - 1) = 0
x - 6 = 0 or x - 1 = 0
x = 6 or x = 1
Substituting both values of x into equation 2, it becomes
For x = 6,
y=2×6 + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13
y = 13
For x = 1,
y=2 × 1 +1 = 2 + 1 = 3
y = 3
