Answer:
m = -30
m = slope
Step-by-step explanation:
(1,57) and (2,27)
(x1,y1) and (x2,y2)
y2 - y1. 27 - 57
---------- =. ---------- =. -30/1 = -30
x2-x1. 2 - 1
Answer:
x = 5, y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
just trust me, I used a calculator
Answer:
RS = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
QS = 62
RS = ?
QR = 45
QS - QR = RS
62 - 45 = 17
Thus RS = 17
f(x) = (x - 4)^2 - 1
g(x) = -(1/4) ( x - 4)^2 + 4
both the x and y values have to be the same. Start with the y values
f(x) = g(x)
(x - 4)^2 - 1 = -(1/4) (x - 4)^2 + 4 Add 1 to both sides.
(x - 4)^2 = -(1/4) (x - 4)^2 + 5 Add 1/4(x - 4)^2 to both sides.
(5/4) (x - 4)^2 = 5 Divide by 5/4 on both sides.
(x - 4)^2 = 5//(5/4)
(x - 4)^2 = (5/1)//5/4 Invert the second fraction and multiply
(x - 4)^2 = 5/1 * 4/5
(x - 4)^2 = 4 The 5s cancel
(x - 4)^2 = 4 Take the square root of both sides.
(x - 4) = +/- 2 Add 4 to each answer. Start with +2 on the right.
x - 4 + 4 = 2 + 4
x = 4 + 2 = 6
The x value that makes f(x)- g(x) = 0 is x = 6 The point is (6,3) answer.
Answer C.
================================================
You do not need this next part. It is just for completeness.
x - 4 = - 2
x = 4 -2
x = 2
What are the y values for these 2 x values?
y = (x - 4)^2 - 1
y = (6 - 4)^2 - 1
y = 4 - 1
y = 3
The point where f(x) - g(x) = 0 is (6,3) <<<<<< Answer 1
The second point is
y = (x - 4)^2 - 1
y = (2 - 4)^2 - 1
y = (-2)^2 - 1
y = 4 - 1
y = 3
The second point is (2,3). Answer 2
Note the y values are the same. You might expect that.
