Answer:

y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever your rate of change [slope] is 0, it is a horizontal line, therefore you have the above answer.

Answer:

y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

A line with slope zero is a horizontal line. All points on a horizontal line have the same y-coordinate.

The equation of a horizontal line is

y = k,

where k is the y-coordinate of every point on the line.

Since we are told this line passes through the point (1, -4), and the y-coordinate of (1, -4) is -4, then every point on the line has y-coordinate -4.

The equation is

y = -4

Solve. x^2+9x+2=0 thanks!

Step one:
ALWAYS set equation equal to zero, which in this case has already been done for us.

Step two:
Figure out what formula you need to use in order to solve in this case I'd use the Quadratic formula.

a=1
b=9
c=2

Quadratic formula:
$x = \frac{ - b + - \sqrt{(b) ^{2} - 4(a)(c)} }{2(a)}$
Then you would plug in the information.
$x = \frac{ - 9+ - \sqrt{(9) {}^{2} - 4(1)(2) } }{2(1)}$
The solve for what is underneath the square root ONLY.
$x = \frac{ - 9 + - \sqrt{73} }{2}$
Since you cannot solve this any further, your final two answers are...
$x = \frac{ - 9 + \sqrt{73} }{2}$
$x = \frac{ - 9 - \sqrt{73} }{2}$

Please help I’ll give brainliest

damaskus [11]

The piecewise function all the way to the left (x + 3) should have an ending point shaded in. [At x = -2] The next function ((x^2) -1) should have both ending points left unshaded. Finally, the logarithm function should have a shaded in starting point [At x = 1] and should have an unshaded ending point at x = 3.

Based on the table, which best predicts the end behavior of the graph of F(x)?

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The table shows the sign of the function is the opposite of the sign of x, so ...

as x → ∞, f(x) → -∞; as x → -∞, f(x) → ∞ . . . . . matches the 3rd choice
