Answer:

$y=-2x+3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that with the provided information they are given you not ust the slope of the line (-2), but also the y-intercept (the point where the line crosses the y-axis which happens when x=0).

So you can directly write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form [ $y=mx+b$ where "m" is the slope and "b" the y-value when x=0].

Such gives us:

$y=-2x+3$

For
ax^2+bx+c
the axis of symmetry is -b/2a

first one
-3/2=3, nope

2nd one
3/2=3? nope

3rd one
-6/2=3? nope

fourth
6/2=3? yes
answer is last one or

Which expression is equivalent to 2^2×2/2^4

dusya [7]

First step is to simplify the equation so that it makes our life easier! Since 2^2 is equivalent to 4, we can plug that into the equation. Then we can also simplify 2^4 to 16. Now it should look like this:

(4)(2)/16

Now we can solve. 4(2) = 8 so now we have 8/16. 8/16 simplifies to 1/8 when you divide the numerator and the denominator by 8. So there you go! Your final answer is 1/8! I really hope that helped you out, and happy holidays!
