Hello,

$a_{1}=-6$
$a_{2}=-6+2$
$a_{n}=-6+2*(n-1)$

$a_{30}=-6+2*(30-1)=52$

What is the y- intercept of the function described in the table x: 1,2,3,4 y: 8,6,4,2

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

The y-intercept of the function is: b=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table

x y

1 8

2 6

3 4

4 2

Taking any two points to find the slope

(1, 8)

(2, 6)

The slope between (1, 8) and (2, 6) is:

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(1,\:8\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(2,\:6\right)$

$m=\frac{6-8}{2-1}$

$m=-2$

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation is

$y=mx+b$

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Substituting m=-2 and any point i.e. (1, 8) in the slope-intercept form of the line equation to find the y-intercept (b).

$y=mx+b$

8 = -2(1) + b

8 = -2 + b

b = 8+2

b = 10

Thus, the y-intercept of the function is: b=10

What is the midpoint of the segment shown below (-8,-7) (-7,-8)

svetlana [45]

Given two points (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) the midpoint would be:
M=((x₁+x₂)/2 , (y₁+y₂)/2)

In this case, the points would be: (-8,-7) and (-7,-8); therefore:
M=((-8-7)/2 , (-7-8)/2)=(-15/2,-15/2)

Answer: C.) (-15/2 , -15,2)
