What is the slope of y = 4 - 2x?
2 answers:
Answer:
The slope is -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite in slope-intercept form.
The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m
is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Reorder 4 and -2x.
Using the slope-intercept form, the slope is −2.
<u>Hence</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>slope</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>-2</u>.

Answer:
5 1/16 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
h(t) = -16t(t -18/16) . . . . put in intercept form
The function describes a parabola that opens downward. It has zeros at t=0 and t=9/8. The maximum height will be found at the vertex of the parabola, halfway between these zeros.
f(9/16) = (-16)(9/16)² +18(9/16) = 81/16 = 5 1/16 . . . . feet
The approximate maximum height of the leopard is 5 1/16 feet.
