Answer: f(x) = (-1/2)x+1, choice B</h3>
=================================================
Explanation:
The diagonal line passes through 1 on the vertical y axis. So the y intercept is b = 1. This means the location of the y intercept is (0,1).
Start at (0,1) and move down 1 and to the right 2 to arrive at (2,0). This is another point on the diagonal line. The motion of "down 1 and right 2" is effectively the slope
slope = rise/run = -1/2
rise = -1, run = 2
The rise being negative means we have gone downhill as we move to the right.
With m = -1/2 as the slope and b = 1 as the y intercept, we go from y = mx+b to y = (-1/2)x+1
The last thing to do is replace y with f(x) to get f(x) = (-1/2)x+1 as the final answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given an equation y+6=45(x+3) in point slope form.
It says to use the point and slope from given equation to create the graph.
So compare equation y+6=45(x+3) with point slope formula
y-y1=m(x-x1)
we see that m=45, x1=-3 and y1=-6
Hence first point is at (-3,-6)
slope m=45 is positive so to find another point, previous point will move 45 units up then 1 unit right and reach at the location (-2,39).
Now we just graph both points (-3,-6) and (-2,39) and join them by a straight line. Final graph will look like the attached graph.
I believe the answer is C -4
Edit . . . I might have been wrong haha thinking backwards
Answer:
Point slope: y+4=4(x-3)
Slope-intercept: y=4x-16
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Use the slope formula to find the slope.
y2-y1/x2-x1
8--4/6-3 = 12/3
Slope is 4
2. Use the slope and one of the coordinates to put the equation in point-slope form.
Point slope form: y-y1=m(x-x1)
y+4=4(x-3)
3. Distribute and simplify to put it in slope-intercept form.
y+4=4x-12
y=4x-16
