Answer:

Slope = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation we use for slope is as follows:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

The graph gives us four points, but we only need two to solve our equation: (-2,5) and (2,1)

Now, we need to define which variable goes with which point:

Y2 = 1

X2 = 2

Y1 = 5

X1 = -2

If we plug these into our equation we get the following:

m = (1 - 5) / (2 - -2)

m = (-4) / (-4)

m = -1

Our slope for this graph = -1

I hope this helps!

Cesar has 32 boxes of pasta and 48 jars of sauce that he will be putting into bags for a food drive. He wants each bag to have the same amount of pasta and sauce and wants to use all of the items. Use the drop-down menus to complete the statements below about the number of bags Cesar can make.

What is the greatest number of bags Cesar can make and Each bag would have _____ pasta and _____ jars of sauce

Answer:

The greatest number of bags Cesar can make is 16 bags.

Each bag would have 2 pasta and 3 of jars of sauce

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using Greatest Common Factor method

The factors of 32 are: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32

The factors of 48 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48

Then the greatest common factor is 16.

Hence, the greatest number of bags Cesar can make is 16 bags.

For Pasta, We have 32 pasta

Each bag would have: 32/16

= 2 pasta

For Jars of sauce, we have 48 jars of sauce.= 48/16

= 3 jars of sauce

What is the effect on the graph of the function f(x) = x^2 when f(x) is changed to f(x − 6)

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

The comparison graph is also attached in 3rd figure. In the 3rd figure, the graph with vertex (0, 0) is representing $f(x) = x^2$ and $\:f\left(x\right)=\left(x-6\right)^2$ is represented as being shifted 6 units to the right as compare to the function $f(x) = x^2$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

When we Add or subtract a positive constant, let say c, to input x, it would be a horizontal shift.

For example:

Type of change Effect on y = f(x)

$y = f(x - c)$ horizontal shift: c units to right

Considering the function

$f(x) = x^2$

The graph is shown below. The first figure is representing $f(x) = x^2$ .

Now, considering the function

$\:f\left(x\right)=\left(x-6\right)^2$

According to the rule, as we have discussed above, as a positive constant 6 is added to the input, so there is a horizontal shift, 6 units to the right.

The graph of $\:f\left(x-6\right)=\left(x-6\right)^2$ is shown below in second figure. It is clear that the graph of $\:f\left(x-6\right)=\left(x-6\right)^2$ is shifted 6 units to the right as compare to the function $f(x) = x^2$ .

Solve both equations and pls show work.. <br> I will mark brainliest

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

7. x = 4

8. x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

7. The angles are equal to each other so you can do

40 = 12x - 8

48 = 12x

4 = x

8. The angles add up to be 180 degrees so you can combine them and set them equal to 180

6x + 12x = 180

18x = 180

x = 10
