Answer: y=5x-8
Step-by-step explanation: slope intercept form is y=mx+b. M stands for the slope and B stands for the y-intercept. You just need to input what the question is telling you.
Multiply 42 times 150 percent or 42×1.5 which would be 63
Step-by-step explanation:
the steeper line is y = 6x + 11 because its gradient 6, is bigger than 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x^2 + 4x + 4
f(x + a) = (x + a)^2 + 4(x + a) + 4
f(x + a) = x^2 + 2ax + a^2 + 4x + 4a + 4 Now combine like terms and use the distributive property.
f(x + a) = x^2 + (2a + 4)x + a^2 + 4a + 4
We are told that f(x + a) = x^2 - 6x + 9
So that means that
2a + 4 = - 6 Subtract 4 from both sides.
2a = - 6 - 4
2a = - 10 Divide by 2
a = - 10/2
a = - 5.
But you are not finished. You have to check the last part.
a^2 + 4x + 4 = 9
(a + 2)^2 = 9
Take the square root of both sides
sqrt(a+ 2)^2 = +/- 3
a+2 = 3
a = 1.
Does this work or is it extraneous? It is extraneous because it will not work for 2(a) + 4 = - 6
You get 6 = - 6 which is not correct. But you did give the second best answer.
a + 2 = - 3
a = - 3 - 2
a = - 5 which agrees with your previous answer.
===========
This is an extremely hard or tricky or sneaky problem. It takes a lot of conniving to get the right answer and 1 is not a left field answer. It just does not happen to be correct.
Answer:
F. (0, 5) and (-4, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to calculate the slope of each of the given sets of points until we find the set associated with a slope of 3/4:
F. (0,5) and (-4,2) As we go from (-4, 2) to (0,5), x increases by 4 and y increases by 3, so the slope is m = rise / run = 3/4. This is the line with slope 3/4.
