<h3>
Answer: Choice A. (7,4)</h3>
============================================
Explanation:
Use the slope and given point to find the y intercept
y = mx+b
8 = (-2/3)*(1) + b
8 = -2/3 + b
8 + 2/3 = b
24/3 + 2/3 = b
26/3 = b
b = 26/3
The equation of the line is y = (-2/3)x + 26/3
To confirm this, plug in x = 1 and we should get y = 8, due to the point (1,8)
y = (-2/3)x + 26/3
y = (-2/3)*1 + 26/3
y = -2/3 + 26/3
y = (-2+26)/3
y = 24/3
y = 8
So that verifies we have the correct equation.
--------------
Next, go through each answer choice to see if the x coordinate of the point leads to the y coordinate.
If we try x = 7, then,
y = (-2/3)x + 26/3
y = (-2/3)(7) + 26/3
y = -14/3 + 26/3
y = (-14+26)/3
y = 12/3
y = 4
This shows that (7,4) is on the line. Choice A is the answer
That rules out choice B.
----------------
If we tried x = -5, then,
y = (-2/3)x + 26/3
y = (-2/3)(-5) + 26/3
y = 10/3 + 26/3
y = 36/3
y = 12
meaning that (-5,12) is on the line. That rules out choices C and D.
Refer to the graph below. It visually confirms that of the four answer choices, only point A is on the line. I used GeoGebra to make the graph.
Notice that we need to look for the intervals of x and also for the intervals of y.<span> We can observe that t</span>here is a minimum between x = 0 and x = 1 because the graph is descending and then ascending and also the graph has a maximum value between y = -3 and y = -1.
We know that equation of a parabola is given by :-
y = a(x-h)² + k
Where (h,k) is the vertex of parabola and (x,y) is any point on its curve.
Given that vertex of parabola is (3,5) and one point (x,y) is (6,-1).
We can plug the given information in the equation of parabola and solve it for value of 'a' :-
-1 = a(6 - 3)² + 5
-1 = a(3)² + 5
-1 = 9a + 5
9a = -1 -5 = -6
a = 
a = 
is the final answer.

Use Addition Rule:
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following inequality:
You need to solve for "x" in order to find the solution.
The steps are:
1. Add 
to both sides of the inequality:
2. Add 
to both sides:
3. Divide both sides by 
:
Notice that "x" is less than 8. This indicates that 8 is not included in the solution and you must use parentheses.
The solution in Interval notation is:
