Answer:

y = - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello : this line passes  through  A(-2,1)    B(3,y)

the slope is :   (YB - YA)/(XB -XA)

                        (y - 1)/(3 -(-2))  =   (y - 1)/5

you have :  (y - 1)/5 = -3

y - 1 = -15

y = - 14

                               

the slope is  : 2

Talib is trying to find the inverse of the function to the right. His work appears beneath it. Is his work correct? Explain your
Rasek [7]
To find the inverse of a function, we make the independent variable the subject of the formula.

Thus, the inverse of the given function is evaluated as follows.
f(x)=-8x+4 \\ y=-8x+4 \\ -8x=y-4 \\ x= \frac{y-4}{-8}  \\ f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x-4}{-8}

From the work show, it can be seen that Talib's work is correct.

Please sketch graph of the function f(x) = |x+2|.
Burka [1]

Answer:

The absolute value can be graphed using the points around the vertex (-2, 0), (-4, 2), (-3, 1), (-1, 1), (0, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

The find the x coordinate of the vertex, set the inside of the absolute value x + 2 equal to 0. In this case, x + 2 = 0.

x + 2 = 0

Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation.

x = -2

Replace the variable x with -2 in the expression.

y = |(-2) + 2|

The absolute value vertex is (-2, 0).

The domain of the expression is all real numbers except where the expression is undefined. In this case, there is no real number that makes the expression undefined.

For each x value, there is on y value. Select few z values from the domain. It would be more useful to select the values so that they are around the x value of the absolute value vertex.

Substitute the x value -4 into f(x) = |x+2|. In this case, the point is (-4,2).

y=2

Substitute the x value -3 into f(x) = |x+2|. In this case, the point is (-3,1).

y=1

Substitute the x value 0 into f(x) = |x+2|. In this case, the point is (0,2).

y=2

You can find the graph in the attachment.

A company has 8 mechanics and 6 electricians. If an employee is selected at random, what is the probability that they are an ele
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Probability = \frac{3}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Electrician = 6

Mechanic = 8

Required

Determine the probability of selecting an electrician

First, we need the total number of employees;

Total = n(Electrician) + n(Mechanic)

Total = 6 + 8

Total = 14

Next, is to determine the required probability using the following formula;

Probability = \frac{n(Electrician)}{Total}

Probability = \frac{6}{14}

Divide numerator and denominator by 2

Probability = \frac{3}{7}

<em>Hence, the probability of selecting an electrician is 3/7</em>

A polynomial is to be constructed that will touch the x axis at most 8 times. What is the minimum degree of the polynomial?
slamgirl [31]
Every degree is a touching point since each root factor is an  x intercept

therefor the answer is 8th degree
