Slope = (-2 - 10)/(12 + 6) = -12/18 = -2/3

y = mx + b
10 = -2/3(-6) + b
10 = 4 + b
b =6

equation
y = -2/3x + 6

<span>x-intercept when y = 0
</span>-2/3x + 6 = 0
-2/3x = -6
      x = 6 (3/2)
      x = 9

answer is <span>d.9</span>

Which graph is not a function ? Why isn’t it ?
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Graph 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph two is not a function because it does not pass "the vertical line test", which is a method of determining if a graph is a function or not. To do this, we use our pen to check that for every x value there is only one y value. In graph two, however, this is not the case.

Please show how you solved the problem. <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br> 4a - 14 = 7a - 8
lianna [129]

4a - 14 = 7a - 8

4a - 7a = 14 -8

-3a = 6

a = 2

ok done. Thank to me :>
