Step-by-step explanation:
the general slope intercept form is
y = ax + b
a is the slope (and always the factor of x). it is expressed as ratio y/x indicating how many units y changes, when x changes a certain amount of units when going from one point to another.
b is the y-intercept, the y value of the point, where the line crosses the y-axis (in other words : the y value when x = 0).
so, look at the chart. where do we see points with integer coordinates (these are the easiest to read correctly and work with) ?
I see for example (0, -6) and (4, -7).
to go from the first to the second point :
x changes by +4 units (from 0 to 4).
y changes by -1 unit (from -6 to -7).
the slope a is therefore -1/4.
and the first point i picked gives us also automatically the y-intercept (-6).
so, the line equation is
y = (-1/4)x - 6

Answer:
D) 3x^2 - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Using PEMDAS;
There is no need to evaluate the part of the equation (x^2 - 8) because is no need to, as it is already in its simplest form.
We must evaluate the part of the equation continuing with, "- (-2x^2+4)," as it is not in its simplest form.
Evaluating "- (-2x^2+4)":
Step 1: Distributing the negative
Once distributing the negative symbol amongst the values within the parenthesis according to PEMDAS, we get "2x^2 - 4" as the product.
Step 2: Consider the rest of the equation to evaluate
Since the part of the equation is still in play here as it is a part of the original equation to be solved, we must evaluate it as a whole to get the final answer.
Thus,
x^2 -8 + 2x^2 - 4 = ___
*we can remove the parenthesis as it has no purpose, since it makes no difference.
Evaluating for the answer, we get,
x^2+2x^2 + (-8 - 4) = 3x^2 - 12
Hence, the answer is D) 3x^2 - 12.
