Answer:

y = m x + b      equation of a straight line

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)     slope of line

m = (17 - 10) / (-36 - 48) = 7 / -84 = -1 / 12

y = -x / 12 + b     equation of line

Or b = y + x / 12

If y =  10 and x = 48 then    b = 10 + 48 / 4 = 14

if  y = 17 and x = -36 then b = 17 - 36 / 12 = 14

So b = 14 and   y = -x / 12 + 14

If u(x) = x5 – x4 + x2 and v(x) = –x2, which expression is equivalent to (u/v)(x)
choli [55]

Answer:

c) -x^3 + x^2 - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: u (x) = x^5 - x^4 +x^2 and v(x) = -x^2

(u/v)(x) = u(x)/v(x)

Now plug in the given functions in the above formula, we get

= (x^5 - x^4 + x^2) / -x^2

We can factorize the numerator.

In x^5 - x^4 + x^2. the common factor is x^2, so we can take it out and write the remaining terms in the parenthesis.

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

Now we gave x^2 both in the numerator and in the denominator, we can cancel it out.

(u/v)(x) = (x^3 - x^2 + 1) / -1

When we dividing the numerator by -1, we get

(u/v)(x) = -x^3 + x^2 - 1

Answer: c) -x^3 + x^2 - 1

Hope you will understand the concept.

Thank you.
