Which equation describe the line through the points (2,-4) and (5,8)

Mathematics

Answer:

Your equation would be

y=4x-12

Step-by-step explanation:

So an easy way to figure this out is graph the points and look at the distance the points are away from each other. In this case it was 12 up and 3 right. This is your slope. Simplify the fraction to 4/1. Then from (2,-4) use the given slope to work back to a point that is on the y axis, which is (0,12). Plug all of the given information you found into y=mx+b and you get the given formula.

Move all the logarithms on the left hand side, and all the constants on the other:

\log_2(x-2) - \log_2(x) = -1

Use the rule of logarithms

\log_a(b) - \log_a(c) = \log_a\left(\dfrac{b}{c}\right)

To rewrite the equation as

\log_2\left(\dfrac{x-2}{x}\right) = -1

Evaluate 2 to the power of each side:

\dfrac{x-2}{x} = 2^{-1} = \dfrac{1}{2}

Multiply both sides by 2x:

2(x-2) = x \iff 2x-4 = x \iff x = 4

Solve for n in the proportion 7/3 = n/21.
erastova [34]
Given ,

7/3 = n/21

We need to find the value of n,

Cross multiplying,we get

3n = 21 x 7

=> 3n = 147

=> n = 147/3

=> n = 49 is the required answer

Find the equation for a polynomial f(x) that satisfies the following:
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

f(x) = 1/2(4 - x)(x - 1)(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering zero's and a coefficient, the function is:

f(x) = a(x - 4)(x - 1)(x - 2)

Considering y-intercept:

f(0) = a(0 - 4)(0 - 1)(0 - 2)

4 = a(-4)(-1)(-2)

4 = -8a

a = -1/2

So the function is:

f(x) = -1/2(x - 4)(x - 1)(x - 2) = 1/2(4 - x)(x - 1)(x - 2)
