What is the value of x? A. 68 B. 36 C. 54 D. 32

Please help me with this. thank you!

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

1. y = mx + b

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

2) to find the y intercept you need to see what cross | ( 8,5)

3) 5 = m(8) = b

4) your slope is negative form the why it pointing

5) in this case your slope is 1/3

6) so now you can do your first step now that you have your (y,x) and slope (your solving for (b)

7)

5 = 1/3 (8) + b

5 = 2.6 + b

5 = 2.6

-2.6

2.4 = b

Right the slope intercept form for the line that travels through (4,-1) and is parallel to y=1/4x

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is given to you by the line y = 1/4 x

The slope is just read as the number in front of x providing that the coefficient of y is 1. If that is not so, then you must divide by the coefficient in front of y. So far what you have is y = 1/4 x + b.

The second part of the question is to use the given point to find b.

x = 4

y = -1

b = ? substitute x and y to find b

y = 1/4 * 4 + b

- 1 = 1/4 * 4 + b

-1 = 1 + b

-2 = b

The equation of the line is y = 1/4 x - 2 Just to confirm this, I'm going to include the graph with the point 4,-1 on it.

Two boats depart from a port located at (–8, 1) in a coordinate system measured in kilometers and travel in a positive x-directi

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}y=-\dfrac{1}{9}x^2 +\dfrac{2}{9}x+\dfrac{89}{9}\\ \\y=\dfrac{1}{8}x^2 -7\end{array}\right.$

Step-by-step explanation:

1st boat:

Parabola equation:

$y=ax^2 +bx+c$

The x-coordinate of the vertex:

$x_v=-\dfrac{b}{2a}\Rightarrow -\dfrac{b}{2a}=1\\ \\b=-2a$

Equation:

$y=ax^2 -2ax+c$

The y-coordinate of the vertex:

$y_v=a\cdot 1^2-2a\cdot 1+c\Rightarrow a-2a+c=10\\ \\c-a=10$

Parabola passes through the point (-8,1), so

$1=a\cdot (-8)^2-2a\cdot (-8)+c\\ \\80a+c=1$

Solve:

$c=10+a\\ \\80a+10+a=1\\ \\81a=-9\\ \\a=-\dfrac{1}{9}\\ \\b=-2a=\dfrac{2}{9}\\ \\c=10-\dfrac{1}{9}=\dfrac{89}{9}$

Parabola equation:

$y=-\dfrac{1}{9}x^2 +\dfrac{2}{9}x+\dfrac{89}{9}$

2nd boat:

Parabola equation:

$y=ax^2 +bx+c$

The x-coordinate of the vertex:

$x_v=-\dfrac{b}{2a}\Rightarrow -\dfrac{b}{2a}=0\\ \\b=0$

Equation:

$y=ax^2+c$

The y-coordinate of the vertex:

$y_v=a\cdot 0^2+c\Rightarrow c=-7$

Parabola passes through the point (-8,1), so

$1=a\cdot (-8)^2-7\\ \\64a-7=1$

Solve:

$a=-\dfrac{1}{8}\\ \\b=0\\ \\c=-7$

Parabola equation:

$y=\dfrac{1}{8}x^2 -7$

System of two equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}y=-\dfrac{1}{9}x^2 +\dfrac{2}{9}x+\dfrac{89}{9}\\ \\y=\dfrac{1}{8}x^2 -7\end{array}\right.$
