Answer:

y=-2x + 8 which is the required equation

Which is option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Slope = m = -2

Given points are ( -2,12)

Which is

x = -2 and y =12

TO find:

Equation of line passing through these points = ?

Solution:

The point slope form of a line is

y = mx + c

Here we don't know the value of c

To find it

Putting y = 12 , x= -2 and y = -2 in the given equation

y = mx + c

Putting values it becomes

12 = (-2)*(-2) + c

12 = 4 + c

Subtracting 4 from both sides

12-4 = 4 -4 + c

8 = c

Now we have

m = -2 and c= 8

So equation of a line is given by

y = mx + c

Putting value of m and c

y = -2*x + 8

y=-2x + 8 which is the required equation

Answer: The slope of function A is greater than the slope of Function B:)

Step-by-step explanation:

Im sorry if I'm incorrect but: Both of the y intercepts would be -2. Though, I'm pretty sure Function A grows +5.

A baseball is hit and its height is given by h = 29.4t – 4. 9t^2, where h is the

ioda

Answer:

44.1m

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given a quadratic function which represents the height and time of a baseball

$\displaystyle h = 29.4t - 4.9 {t}^{2}$

we want to figure out maximum height of

the baseball

since the given function is a quadratic function so we have a parabola

which means figuring out the maximum height is the same thing as figuring out the maximum y coordinate (vertex)

to do so we can use some special formulas

recall that,

$\displaystyle \rm t= \frac{ - b}{ 2a}$

$\displaystyle H_{\text{max}}=f(t)$

notice that, our given function is not in standard form i.e

$\displaystyle f(x) = a {x}^{2} + bx + c$

let's make it so

$\displaystyle h = - 4.9 {t}^{2} + 29.4t$

therefore we got

our <em>a</em> is -4.9 and <em>b </em>is 29.4

so substitute:

$\displaystyle\rm t= \frac{ -( 29.4)}{ 2 \cdot - 4.9}$

remove parentheses and change its sign:

$\displaystyle\rm t= \frac{ -29.4}{ 2 \cdot - 4.9}$

simplify multiplication:

$\displaystyle\rm t= \frac{ -29.4}{ - 9.8}$

simplify division:

$\displaystyle \: t = 3$

so we have figured out the time when the baseball will reach the maximum height

now we have to figure out the height

to do so

substitute the got value of time to our given function

$\displaystyle H_{\text{max}}=29.4\cdot 3-4.9\cdot {3}^2$

simplify square:

$\displaystyle H_{\text{max}}=29.4\cdot 3-4.9\cdot 9$

simplify mutilation:

$\displaystyle H_{\text{max}}=88.2-44.1$

simplify substraction:

$\displaystyle H_{\text{max}}=44.1$

hence,

the maximum height of the baseball is 44.1 metres
