Find the equation of the line in slope-intercept form containing the points (4,6) and (9,16).

Hello!

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b. In this form, m is the slope and y is the y-intercept.

To find the slope, we need to use the slope formula. The slope formula is: \frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}}. We can assign the point (4, 6) to x_{1} and y_{1} and (9, 16) to x_{2} and y_{2}.

Now, we can find the slope: \frac{16-6}{9-4} = \frac{10}{5} = 2

Next, we can find the y-intercept by substituting a point into the slope-intercept form with the slope as 2.

y = 2x + b (substitute a given point)

6 = 2(4) + b (simplify)

6 = 8 + b (subtract 8 from both sides)

-2 = b

Therefore, the equation of the line is y = 2x - 2.

Multiply (3x2-4x+5)(x2-3x+2)
Iteru [2.4K]

So with this, you can rewrite the equation as: (3x^2\times x^2)+(3x^2\times -3x)+(3x^2\times 2)+(-4x\times x^2)+(-4x\times -3x)+(-4x\times 2)+(5\times x^2)+(5\times -3x)+(5\times 2)

Firstly, solve the multiplication: 3x^4+(-9x^3)+6x^2+(-4x^3)+12x^2+(-8x)+5x^2+(-15x)+10

Next, combine like terms, and <u>your answer will be: 3x^4-13x^3+23x^2-23x+10</u>

How many pounds of carbon dioxide would you prevent from entering the atmosphere in one year, if you were to replace a 100-watt
VikaD [51]
That's an excellent question but we don't have enough information to answer it. We would need to know how the electrical energy is generated. Nuclear, hydroelectric, coal burning, wind, and natural gas burning all produce different amounts of carbon for the same amount of electrical energy. If the utility that supplies your house uses nuclear or wind, then you can leave both bulbs shining 24/7 and they're not responsible for any carbon.
