from the diagram, we can see that the height or line perpendicular to the parallel sides is 8.5.
likewise we can see that the parallel sides or "bases" are 24.3 and 9.7, so

Answer:
slope = -1
y intercept (0,-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the two points to find the slope
(-4,2) and (1,-3)
m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-3 -2)/(1 - -4)
= -5 /(1+4)
= -5/5
- 1
The y intercept is where it crosses the y axis
y intercept is (0,-2)

Answer:
c. g(x) = 4x^2
Step-by-step explanation:
From a first glance, since g(x), is skinnier than f(x), meaning that it is increasing faster, so I know that I can eliminate options A & B since the coefficient on x needs to be greater than 1.
We can then look and see that g(1) = 4 as shown by the point given to us on the graph.
To find the right answer we can find g(1) for options C & D and whichever one matches the point on the graph is our correct answer. e
Option C:
once we plug in 1 for x, our equation looks like
4(1)^2.
1^2 = 1, and 4(1) = 4,
so g(1) = 4. and our point is (1,4).
This is the same as the graph so this is the CORRECT answer.
If you want to double check, you can still find g(1) for option D and verify that it is the WRONG answer.
Option D:
once we plug in 1 for x, our equation looks like
16(1)^2
1^2 = 1, and 16(1) = 16,
so g(1) = 16. and our point is (1,16).
This is different than the graph so this is the WRONG answer.
