Find the x and y intercepts of the graph of the equation y=x^2-5

Mathematics
1 answer:
mr_godi [17]3 years ago

Answer:

x intercepts  -sqrt(5), + sqrt(5)

y intercept -5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x^2 -5

to find the x intercept set y=0 and solve for x

0 = x^2-5

add 5 to each side

5 = x^2

take the square root of each side

+- sqrt(5) = sqrt(x^2)

x = +-sqrt(5)    there are 2 x intercepts since it is a quadratic


to find the y intercept set x=0 and solve for y

y = 0-5

y = -5

which statement best explain best explains whether the table represents a linear or non linear function (100 POINTS) HURRYYYY PL
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

It is a linear function because there is a constant rate of change in both the input and output values

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if the function is linear, calculate the differences between the y values.

If the differences are constant, or the same value, the equation is linear and has a constant slope. If the differences are not the same, the equation is not linear.

<u>difference between y values (output)</u>

7 - 4 = 3

3 - 1 = 3

1 - -2 = 3

⇒ the function is linear

<u>difference between x values (input)</u>

-2 - -5 = 3

-5 - -8 = 3

-8 - -11 = 3

⇒ the function is linear as there is a constant rate of change in both the input and output values
