f(-2) means the x value is -2 and you need to find the y value at that point.
At x = -2 the line crosses the y axis at y = 2
f(-2) = 2
Answer:
(x, y) = (1, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll write these equations in general form, then solve using the cross-multiplication method.
43x +67y +24 = 0
67x +43y -24 = 0
∆1 = (43)(43) -(67)(67) = -2640
∆2 = (67)(-24) -(43)(24) = -2640
∆3 = (24)(67) -(-24)(43) = 2640
These go into the relations ...
1/∆1 = x/∆2 = y/∆3
x = ∆2/∆1 = -2640/-2640 = 1
y = ∆3/∆1 = 2640/-2640 = -1
The solution is (x, y) = (1, -1).

<em>Additional comment</em>
The cross multiplication method isn't taught everywhere. The attachment explains a bit about it. Our final relationship changes the order of the fractions to 1, x, y from x, y, 1. That way, we can use the equation coefficients in their original general-form order. (The fourth column in the 2×4 array of coefficients is a repeat of the first column.)

Answer:
it depends on the accuracy and resolution required of the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The shaded portion appears to be about half the length of the unshaded portion, suggesting the shaded amount is 1/3.
__
Using a pair of dividers, one could determine the number of times the shaded portion fits into the whole bar. Depending on how much is left over, the process could repeat to determine the approximate size of the remaining fraction relative to the bar or to the shaded portion. (Alternatively, one could replicate the length of the bar to see what integer number of shaded lengths fit into what integer number of whole lengths.)
One could measure the shaded part and the whole bar with a ruler, then determine the relative size of the shaded part by dividing the first measurement by the second. The finer the divisions on the ruler, the better the approximation will be.
Answer: 4
Step-by-step explanation:
In the number line, 4.2 is between 4 and 5 but it is closer to 4. The answer is that 4.2 round to 4.
Answer:
y=1/2x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
perpendicular lines have a neg. reciprocal for the slope.
for example:
in this equation y=-2x+1
-2 is the slope and the negative reciprocal would be 1/2
hence, the slop of our new line is 1/2
y=1/2x+b
we can substitute the coordinates given for x and y:
2=1/2(8)+b
2=4+b
-2=b
hence the new equation is y=1/2x-2
