Wow, what a coincidence, I just learned this at school today!
1. Slope
M= yb-ya/xb-xa
M= 8-4/8-6
M= 4/2
M= 2
2. Y-intercept
Y= mx + b
4 = (2)(6) + b
4 = 12 + b
4 = 12 + b
-12 = - 12 + b
-8 = b
Therefore, the equation is Y = 2x - 8
Answer:
f(g(x)) = 2x +(-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the argument value into the function and simplify the result.
f(g(x)) = f(x -3) = 2(x- 3) +1 = 2x -6 +1
f(g(x)) = 2x +(-5)
Perimeter = 4 x sides
48 = 4 (x + 3)
48 = 4x + 12
36 = 4x
x = 9
Check:
x + 3 = 9 + 3 = 12
12 x 4 = 48
