Answer:

x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3x + 2 = y and y = - 1

Substitute y = - 1 into the equation and solve for x, that is

3x + 2 = - 1 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

3x = - 3 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = - 1

This is verified by the point on the graph with coordinates (- 1, - 1)

Method 1: By substitution

Step 1: In the equation 3x + 2 = y when you see a y replace it with -1

3x + 2 = -1

Step 2: Combine like terms by subtracting 2 to both sides

3x + (2-2) = -1 - 2

3x = -3

Step 3: Isolate x by dividing 3 to both sides

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{-3}{3}

x = -1

Method 2: By looking at the graph

To solve this way you see where the line on the graph has y = -1 and look for its complimentary x

If you look at the graph attached below you can see that at y = -1 the x also equals -1

x = -1

Hope this helped!

I NEED HELP IM IN CLASS RN PLEASEE HELP! WILL GIVE BRIANLIEST!
fgiga [73]

Answer:

y=x+12

Step-by-step explanation:

Well the slope is -4/-4 =1

We plug it into the formula, y=mx+b, but m=1

So it is y=1x+b

We know the points, so we plug y and x in which is:

-4=-4*4+b

-4=-16+b

b=12

So the point slope form of that is y=x+12

The graph of a quadratic function touches, but does not cross, the x-axis at x = 4. Which function represents this situation?
jek_recluse [69]
When a zero of a function does not cross the x-axis but touches it, this means that the zero is a "double root". It has two of the same factor (x - 4)^2 and two of the same zeros, x = 4 and x = 4
f(x) = x^2 - 8x + 16 would be the function with a double root at 4
