Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of line:
where m is the slope
and c is the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0)
In this case, given the slope = 1/4
and y-intercept is 8 (from the point (0,8))
The equation of the following line is:
First let's rewrite it...
18a^2 + 20a + 8
Factor out a 2
2 (9a^2 + 10a + 4)
Part A: Explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of
the equations y = 4-x and y = 2x + 3 intersect are the solutions of the
equation
4-x = 2x + 3.
Because the point where the graphs intersect is a point that meets both rules (functions) y = 4 - x and y = 2x + 3 meaning that y from y = 4 - x equals y from 2x + 3 and also both x have the same value.
Part B: Make tables to find the solution to 4-x = 2x + 3. Take the integer values of x between -3 and 3.
x values 4 -x 2x + 3
-3 4-(-3)=7 2(-3)+3 =-3
-2 4-(-2)=6 2(-2)+3 =-1
-1 4-(-1)=5 2(-1)+3 = 1
0 4-0=4 2(0)+3 = 3
1 4-1=3 2(1)+3=5
2 4-2=2 2(2)+3 = 7
3 4-3=1 2(3)+3 = 9
The the solution is between x = 0 and x =1
Part C: How can you solve the equation 4-x = 2x + 3 graphically?
Draw in a same graph both functions y= 4 - x and y = 2x +3.
Then read the x-coordinates of the intersection point. That is the solution.
