Answer:

Varible x equals 2

Step-by-step explanation:

7x = 14

Dividing both sides by 7, we will have

x = 14/7

x = 2

X=2 because 14 divided by 7 is 2 since 7 is equal the number 7

State the equation of the following graphs.<br> Someone please help ASAP

Answer

y = 1(x +1) - 3

Explanation

A quadratic equation of the form y = ax^2 + bx + c

This written in complete the square form provides you with the vertex (either a maximum or minimum point depending on the equation).

This results in y = a(x + p) + q

Where - p is the x value and q is the y value of turning point.

For graph 22, x = -1 and y = -3

Therefore, the equation is of the form

y = a(x + 1) - 3 (*)

We still need the value a, this can be obtained by using the y-intercept we are given.

We are told x = 0 when y = -2

Substitute this in (*) equation:

-2 = a(0+1) - 3

-2 = a - 3

a = 1

Therefore final equation is

y = 1(x +1) - 3

This should provide you with the train of thought of how the second question should also be tackled.

If unsure about why the equation
y = a(x + p) + q gives the vertex ask in comments I will respond

Answer:

$y=\frac{2}{3} x$ (y equals start fraction two over three end fraction x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Lest's organize the table values of our function first:

x y

-6 -4

-3 -2

The simplest kind of of function is a linear function of the form $y=mx+b$ where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept. Let's us check if our function is a linear one finding its equation and checking that all points are in the line.

The first step to find a linear equation is find the slope of the line; to do it, we are using the slope formula:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

where

$m$ is the slope of the line

$(x_1,y_1)$ are the coordinates of the first point

$(x_2,y_2)$ are the coordinates of the second point

We know from our table that the first and second points are (-6, -4) and (-3, -2) respectively, so $x_1=-6$ , $y_1=-4$ , $x_2=-3$ , and $y_2=-2$ .

Replacing values:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m=\frac{-2-(-4)}{-3-(-6)}$

$m=\frac{-2+4}{-3+6)}$

$m=\frac{2}{3)}$

Now that we have the slope of our line we can use the point slope formula to complete our linear function:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

where

$m$ is the slope

$(x_1,y_1)$ are the coordinates of the first point

Replacing values:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$y-(-4)=\frac{2}{3)}(x-(-6))$

$y+4=\frac{2}{3)}(x+6)$

$y+4=\frac{2}{3} x+4$

$y=\frac{2}{3} x+4-4$

$y=\frac{2}{3} x$

Now, to check if our function is valid, we can either check if each point satisfies the rule $y=\frac{2}{3} x$ , or we can graph it and check if each lies is in the graph.

Let's check both:

We already know that points (-6, -4) and (-3, -2) satisfy the rule (after all, those were the point we used to came out with the rule in the first place), so we just need to check the points (0, 0) and (3, 2)

- For (0, 0):

$y=\frac{2}{3} x$

$0=\frac{2}{3}(0)$

$0=0$

The point satisfies the rule.

- For (3, 2):

$y=\frac{2}{3} x$

$2=\frac{2}{3} (3)$

$2=2$

The point satisfies the rule.

Since all the points of our table satisfies the rule $y=\frac{2}{3} x$ , we can conclude that the rule describing the function shown is $y=\frac{2}{3} x$ .
