The linear function f i with values f(-1) = 10 and f(5) = -1 is f(x)
zhenek [66]
Answer:

Use the two points to compute the slope, m, then use one of the points in the form <span>y=m<span>(x)</span>+b</span> to find the value of b.

Explanation:

The equation for the slope, m, of a line is:

<span>m=<span><span><span>y1</span>−<span>y0</span></span><span><span>x1</span>−<span>x0</span></span></span> [1]</span>

The equation <span><span>f<span>(2)</span></span>=−1</span> tells us that <span><span>x0</span>=2and<span>y0</span>=−1</span>; substitute this into equation [1]:

<span>m=<span><span><span>y1</span>−−1</span><span><span>x1</span>−2</span></span> [2]</span>

The equation <span><span>f<span>(5)</span></span>=4</span> tells us that <span><span>x1</span>=5and<span>y1</span>=4</span>; substitute this into equation [2]:

<span>m=<span><span>4−−1</span><span>5−2</span></span> [3]</span>

<span>m=<span>53</span></span>

Substitute <span>53</span> for m into the equation <span>y=m<span>(x)</span>+b</span>

<span>y=<span>53</span>x+b [4]</span>

Substitute 2 for x and -1 for y and the solve for b:

<span>−1=<span>53</span><span>(2)</span>+b</span>

<span>b=−<span>133</span></span>

Substitute <span>−<span>133</span></span> for b in equation [4]:

<span>y=<span>53</span>x−<span>133</span> [5]</span>

Check:

<span>−1=<span>53</span><span>(2)</span>−<span>133</span></span>
<span>4=<span>53</span><span>(5)</span>−<span>133</span></span>

<span>−1=−1</span>
<span>4=<span>4</span></span>

<span><span>
</span></span>

<span><span>Hope this helps </span></span>

<h3>Answer:</h3>
  1. -100x +100; 3
  2. 5x +81; 162
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The distributive property is your friend. It tells you ...

  a(b + c) = ab + ac

It can also be used to simplify the product of binomials (or other polynomials).

  (a +b)^2 = (a +b)(a +b) = a(a +b) + b(a +b) = a^2 +ab +ab +b^2

  (a +b)^2 = a^2 +2ab + b^2 . . . . . . . worth remembering

1. (x -10)^2 -x(x +80) = (x^2 -20x +100) +(-x^2 -80x)

  = -100x +100 . . . . . . simplified form

For the purposes of calculation, it can be easier to factor out 100:

  = 100 (1 -x)

Then for x = 0.97

  = 100(1 -0.97) = 100(0.03) = 3

___

2. (2x +9)^2 -x(4x +31) = (4x^2 +36x +81) -4x^2 -31x = 5x +81

For x = 16.2, this is ...

  5(16.2) +81 = 81 +81 = 162

_____

The purpose of the attachment is to show the evaluation is correct.
