Answer:

y = 1/2x -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is typically written as y = mx + b.

m is the slope of the line, while b is the y-intercept. y is the y-coordinate and x is the x-coordinate.

Since it indicated that the line has a slope of 1/2, we can substitute the m in the equation with 1/2.

y = 1/2x + b

In order to find the intercept of the line, we use the equation of a line to substitute the y-coordinate and x-coordinate of (-3,-3) to discover the y-intercept of b.

-3 = 1/2(-3) + b

One half of -3 is -1.5.

-3 = -1.5 + b

Add -1.5 to both sides of the equation.

-3 = -1.5 + b

+1.5  +1.5

-1.5 = b

Since we found the y-intercept, we can now place it into our equation.

y = 1/2x -1.5 and that's the answer!

If f(x) = 5x + 40, what is f(x) when x = -5?<br> 0 -9<br> O-8<br> 07<br> 0 15
gogolik [260]

Good morning ☕️

______

Answer:

15

___________________

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 5x + 40

then

f(-5) = 5(-5) + 40

= -25 + 40

= 40-25

= 15.

Write and equation on the line that passed through (0,-1) and is perpendicular to the line y =1/9x+2
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

y=-9x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

since it is perpendicular, the slope must be the opposite reciprocal (-9x) and now we plug the coordinates in, -1=0+b, b is -1

Can someone help me??!
sasho [114]

When you compare two functions f(x) and g(x), you're looking for a special input x^\ast such that

f(x^\ast)=g(x^\ast)

Since you have the table with some possible candidates for x^\ast, you simply have to choose the row that gives values for f(x) and g(x) that are as close as possible (the exact solution would give the same value for f(x) and g(x), so the approximate solution will give values for f(x) and g(x) that are close to each other).

In your table, the values for f(x) and g(x) are closer when x=-0.75

Whats an equation that the passes through (-6,4) and is parallel to y=1/2x+8
Trava [24]
Formula y-y1= m(X-X1)
Since its parallel the m is 1/2
The -6 is X1 and the 4 is y1
Okay now do formula

Y-4= 1/2(X--6)
Y-4= 1/2X+3
Add 4

Y= 1/2x +7
