Answer: the slope is 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Hi am sorry but I can't see so I think you have to zoom in so I could help you.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ordered pairs for the intercepts are as follows:
x intercept = 9/2
y intercept = -18
In order to find either of these you must put 0's in for the other variable. So, to find the x intercept, we start by putting 0 in for y.
y = 4x - 18
0 = 4x - 18
-4x = -18
x = 9/2
To find the y intercept, we put a 0 in for x.
y = 4x - 18
y = 4(0) - 18
y = 0 - 18
y = -18
Answer: Choice A. f(x) = sqrt(x-1)
===========================================
Explanation:
The parent function is y = sqrt(x) and the left-most edge of this curve is at (0,0).
The graph shows the left-most point at (1,0) instead.
This means we've shifted everything 1 unit to the right, or you can think of the xy axis being shifted 1 unit to the left while the square root curve stays still (giving the illusion the curve moves).
If we shifted the xy axis 1 unit to the left, then each input x becomes one smaller, so each input is now x-1
That's why we go from y = sqrt(x) to y = sqrt(x-1)
You can use a graphing calculator to confirm this, or you can create a table of values to generate the points on this new blue curve.
