A line with a slope of –2 passes through the point (–4, 8). What is the equation of the slope-intercept form?

Answer:

y= -2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is usually written in the form of y=mx+c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.

Given that the slope is -2, m= -2.

subst. m= -2 into the equation:

y= -2x +c

To find the value of c, substitute a coordinate.

When x= -4, y=8,

8= -2(-4) +c

8= 8 +c (expand)

c= 8-8 (-8 on both sides)

c=0 (simplify)

Thus, the equation of the line is y= -2x.

Find the difference quotient of f(x)=5x+4
Aleonysh [2.5K]
The differnce quotient is basically taking the derivitive (result will be f'(x)=5, but anyway)

here is the disffernce quotient
lim_{h\rightarrow0}\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}

so
for your equation
lim_{h\rightarrow0}\frac{(5(x+h)+4)-(5x+4)}{h}
lim_{h\rightarrow0}\frac{5x+5h+4-5x-4}{h}
lim_{h\rightarrow0}\frac{5h}{h}
h's cancel and you are left with 5
the differnce quotient is 5

1E. The number 2A5A0A2 is divisible by 99. What is the digit A?
kirza4 [7]

Answer: A = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The digit is 3. If A is 3, the number

2A5A0A2 becomes 2353032. We then divide by 99 and this will be:

= 2353032/99

= 23768

If we use 1, we'll have 2151012. Dividing by 99 gives:

= 2151012 / 99

= 21727.39

If we use 2, we'll have 2252022. Dividing by 99 gives:

= 2252022 / 99

= 22747.69

If we use 4, we will have 2454042. Dividing by 99 gives:

= 2454042 / 99

= 24788.30

If we use 5, we will have 2555052. Dividing by 99 gives:

= 2555052 / 99

= 25808.61

If we use 6, we will have 2656062. Dividing by 99 gives:

= 2656062 / 99

= 26828.91

If we use 7, we will have 2757072. Dividing by 99 gives:

= 2757072 / 99

= 27849.21

If we use 8, we will have 2858082. Dividing by 99 gives:

= 2858082 / 99

= 28869.52

If we use 9, we will have 2959092. Dividing by 99 gives:

= 2959092 / 99

= 29889.82

If we use 0, we will have 2050002. Dividing by 99 gives:

= 2050002 / 99

= 20707.09

Therefore, A is 3 as it gives 2353032 which divides 99 successfully without remainder.
