Answer:
y =
x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 5) ← 2 points on the line
m =
= 
The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 2 ) ⇒ c = 2
y =
x + 2 ← equation of line
Answer:
C)
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that one of the lines is simply y=-1 for any x, so we can dismiss the only answer without y=-1. That rejected answer is A)
Now let's notice, that the other line is decreasing y when increasing x. That tells us that in the equation y = ax + b, a has to be negative. This brings us to reject option D).
What is the y of that line for x = 0? Because y = ax + b, for x = 0 we will get the value of b. This is called the intercept. The line is at y=4 for x=0, so we know that the b in the equation must be positive 4. This fits answer C, but rejects answer B). And so, we have found that C) is the only possible answer.
Define the population, decide on the sample size (aka what percentage of that population)
This is not a polynomial equation unless one of those is squared. As it stands x=-.833. If you can tell me which is squared I can help solve the polynomial.
Ok, that is usually notated as x^3 to be clear. I'll solve it now.
x^3-13x-12=0
Then use factor theorum to solve x^3-13x-12/x+1 =0
So you get one solution of x+1=0
x=-1
Then you have x^2-x-12 now you complete the square.
Take half of the x-term coefficient and square it. Add this value to both sides. In this example we have:
The x-term coefficient = −1
The half of the x-term coefficient = −1/2
After squaring we have (−1/2)2=1/4
When we add 1/4 to both sides we have:
x2−x+1/4=12+1/4
STEP 3: Simplify right side
x2−x+1/4=49/4
STEP 4: Write the perfect square on the left.
<span>(x−1/2)2=<span>49/4
</span></span>
STEP 5: Take the square root of both sides.
x−1/2=±√49/4
STEP 6: Solve for x.
<span>x=1/2±</span>√49/4
that is,
<span>x1=−3</span>
<span>x2=4</span>
<span>and the one from before </span>
<span>x=-1</span>
