Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the equation of a line using slope and a point, first use the slope to create the basic line using the slope and work from there.
For instance, the base equation here is
This line passes through the point (0, 0).
You can then plug in a value for x. In this case, use the value of 3, as it corresponds with your question.
A point on the line of y = 2x would thus be (3, 6).
To make the y-value equal -3, you must then subtract from the original equation. There are 9 units between 6 and -3, so you must subtract nine units in the equation. You should get this at the end:
7 groups because you need to find a number that 14 and 21 both go into. 7 works because 7*2 is 14 and 7*3 is 21 so 7 is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
slope = 2-4/2-1 = -2
y - 2 = -2(x - 2)
y-2 = -2x +4
y = -2x + 6
Answer:
Use the appropriate entry method for piecewise functions for the graphing calculator of interest.
Step-by-step explanation:
For Desmos, the entry looks like ...
f(x) = {x ≤ 2: -2x-1,-x+4}
_____
For a TI-84 calculator, the entry may look like ...
Y₁ = (-2X–1)(X≤2) + (-X+4)(X>2)
The symbols ≤ and > come from the TEST menu, which is the (2nd) shift of the MATH key.
Note that the function is the sum of the pieces, each piece multiplied by a test. For something like 0≤x<2, the multiplier would be a pair of tests:
... (0≤X)(X<2)
