Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula of the slope is (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

slope = (3-2)/(-1-2) = 1/(-3) = -1/3

Determine whether the situation is linear or nonlinear, and proportional or nonproportional
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

  linear and non-proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

When the same amount is added each week, the relationship is linear. When the initial value is 50, not zero, the relationship is non-proportional.

Give the following equations determine if the lines are parallel perpendicular or neither
GaryK [48]

In order to determine whether the equations are parallel, perpendicular, or neither, let's simply each equation into a slope-intercept form or basically, solve for y.

Let's start with the first equation.

\frac{6x-5y}{2}=x+1

Cross multiply both sides of the equation.

6x-5y=2(x+1)6x-5y=2x+2

Subtract 6x on both sides of the equation.

6x-5y-6x=2x+2-6x-5y=-4x+2

Divide both sides of the equation by -5.

-\frac{5y}{-5}=\frac{-4x}{-5}+\frac{2}{-5}y=\frac{4}{5}x-\frac{2}{5}

Therefore, the slope of the first equation is 4/5.

Let's now simplify the second equation.

-4y-x=4x+5

Add x on both sides of the equation.

-4y-x+x=4x+5+x-4y=5x+5

Divide both sides of the equation by -4.

\frac{-4y}{-4}=\frac{5x}{-4}+\frac{5}{-4}y=-\frac{5}{4}x-\frac{5}{4}

Therefore, the slope of the second equation is -5/4.

Since the slope of each equation is the negative reciprocal of each other, then the graph of the two equations is perpendicular to each other.

I need help finding the y-intercept of these, I am no good with slope and tables. ;-;
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

1. -4

2. 6

3. -6

(i hope this is right •_•)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First table</u>

When the x coordinate is 0, that point is your y intercept. For the first one, your y intercept is -4.

<u>Second table</u>

For the second one, we need to do a bit of counting. We can see the x coordinates go before and after zero, but the table does not show us 0. So, we're going to have to calculate the slope. Bear with me here, I'm a little tired and this might be rambling ;-;

So, the formula for calculating slope is \frac{y_{2} -y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}. I'm going to use those first two points to get my slope. We're going to say the first point is point 1 and the second point is point 2 (genius, i know lol). So, let's substitute in the x and y values.

\frac{9-12}{-3-(-6)}

And simplify...

\frac{-3}{3}

So, your slope is -1. We can use that. We just have to count down.

If the x is -2, the y is 8. If the x is -1, the y is 7. And if the x is 0....(drumroll please) the y is 6! So, your y intercept is 6.

<u>Third table</u>

Now, this table isn't very nice either and doesn't have an x as 0 for us. Hmpf. But we can still do what we did above. I'll just skip the explanation and you can observe my steps.

\frac{-3-(-5)}{9-3}

\frac{2}{6}

\frac{1}{3}

Let's count down....

If x = 3, y = -5

If x = 2, y = -5 1/3

If x = 1, y = -5 2/3

If x = 0, y = -6

What are the transformations to this quadratic function y= (x+4) power of 2 - 8
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Horizontal shift of 4 units to the left.

Vertical translation of 8 units downward.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic function, y = (x + 4)² - 8, which represents the horizontal and vertical translations of the parent graph, y = x²:

The vertex form of the quadratic function is y = a(x - h)² + k

Where:

The vertex is (h , k), which is either the <u>minimum</u> (upward facing graph) or <u>maximum</u> (downward-facing graph).

The axis of symmetry occurs at <em>x = h</em>.

<em>a</em> =  determines whether the graph opens up or down, and makes the graph wider or narrower.

<em>h</em> = determines how far left or right the parent function is translated.

<em>k</em> = determines how far up or down the parent function is translated.

Going back to your quadratic function,

          y = (x + 4)² - 8

  • The vertex occrs at (-4, -8)
  • a is assumed to have a value of 1.
  • Given the value of <em>h</em> = -4, then it means that the graph shifted horizontally by <u>4 units to the left</u>.  
  • Since k = -8, then it implies that the graph translated vertically at <u>8 units downward</u>.

Assume the cost of a car is $25,000. With continuous compounding, in effect, the cost of the care will increase according to the
Masja [62]
The value of t that makes the factor e^(.032t) have the value of 2 can be found using logarithms.
  2 = e^(0.032t)
  ln(2) = ln(e^(0.032t)) = 0.032t
  t = ln(2)/0.032 ≈ 21.66

It would take 21.66 years for the cost to double.
