Answer:

<h2>slope = 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have

(-3;\ -8)\to x_1=-3;\ y_1=-8\\(4;\ 6)\to x_2=4;\ y_2=6

Substitute:

m=\dfrac{6-(-8)}{4-(-3)}=\dfrac{6+8}{4+3}=\dfrac{14}{7}=2

The formula for the slope m of the line that passes through two points (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2) is the following:

m=\dfrac{y_1-y_2}{x_1-x_2}

We have points (4,6) and (-3,-8). Let's plug these values into the formula for slope:

m=\dfrac{6-(-8)}{4-(-3)}

=\dfrac{14}{7}=2

The slope of the line passing through the two points is 2. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

Which of the following is the maximum value of the equation y = −x2 − x + 6?
Ratling [72]

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = y= -x²-x+6

When y is max, f'(x) = 0

f'(x) = -2x-1

Equating to 0,

-2x-1= 0

x= -1/2

Put the value of x in f(x)

y = -(-1/2)² -(-1/2) +6

= -1/4+1/2+6

= 6+1/2

y= 13/2
