Top box is 2x
bottom box is 3
F(-1)= -3 is (-1,-3) and f(2) = 6 is (2,6) where f(x) = y
y=mx + b is the slope-intercept form whereas m equals the slope (rate of change) and b equals the y-intercept (initial amount/what y is when x is 0.)
First, we need to find the slope between the two points (-1,-3) and (2,6). To find the slope we could use one of it's formulas

.
1. (-1,-3)
2. (2,6)

The slope is 3 (

). Thusly, y = 3x + b
To find out the y-intercept, we can reverse the slope. [Note: This

is in

where rise is 'y' and run is 'x'. Reversed would be

]. Take the second ordered pair and use our reversed slope on it until we get 0 for x.
(2, 6) ⇒ (2 - 1, 6 -3) ⇒ (1, 3) ⇒ (0,0)
Y-intercept is 0. Therefore,
y= 3x + 0 [NOTE: y = f(x), so if you want it in function notation form it's just f(x) = 3x + 0.]
Answer:
2 + (3 + 4) = (2 + 3) + 4 ⇒2+7 = 5+4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
f(x) = -(x+2)(x-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the zeros are at 1 and -2
f(x) = a *(x-b1)(x-b2) where b1 and b2 are the zeros and a is a constant
f(x) =a(x-1)(x- -2)
f(x) =a(x-1)(x+2)
We know that a must be negative since the parabola opens down so
The only choice is choice D where a = -1
f(x) = -(x+2)(x-1)
