A slope intercept form: y = mx + b where m = slope and b = y -intercept

A slope of 3/2 is given

So y = 3/2 x + b

To find b:

b = y - mx

A line passes through the point (4, -6)

b = -6 - (3/2)(4)

b = -6 - 6

b = - 12

Answer

Equation in slope intercept form: y = 3/2 x - 12

HELPPPPP MEEEEE!!! #7

Angle 6 and Angle 7 are each 90° since they’re on a straight line and are both equal.
180-90= 90
*you subtract from 180 because that’s how many degrees are in a straight line*
Angle 7 and Angle 1 are alternate exterior angles so that makes them congruent by definition.

Find the inverse of the function y=2x^2+2

Tatiana [17]

The inverse of the function is y = $\sqrt{\frac{x - 2}{2}}$

In order to find this, you must start by switching the y and x values. Once you do this, you can solve for the new y value and that will be in inverse. The work is done for you below.

y = 2x^2 + 2 ---> switch x and y

x = 2y^2 + 2 ---> subtract 2 from both sides

x - 2 = 2y^2 ---> divide both sides by 2

$\frac{x-2}{2}$ = y^2 ---> take the square root of both sides.
