Answer:

Question 4:  y=\displaystyle -\frac{4}{5}x

Question 5: y=-5x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: y=mx+b where <em>m</em> is the slope of the line and <em>b</em> is the y-intercept (the y-coordinate of the point where the line crosses the y-axis).

<u>Question 4</u>

<u>1) Determine the slope (</u><u><em>m</em></u><u>)</u>

\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} where two points that pass through the line are (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2)

In the graph, two easy-to-identify points on the line are (-5,4) and (5,-4). Plug these into the equation:

\displaystyle m=\frac{-4-4}{5-(-5)}\\\\\displaystyle m=\frac{-4-4}{5+5}\\\\\displaystyle m=\frac{-8}{10}\\\\\displaystyle m=-\frac{4}{5}

Therefore, the slope of the line is \displaystyle -\frac{4}{5}. Plug this into y=mx+b as the slope (<em>m</em>):

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

<u>2) Determine the y-intercept (</u><u><em>b</em></u><u>)</u>

On the graph, we can see that the line crosses the y-axis when y is 0. Therefore, the y-intercept (<em>b</em>) is 0. Plug this into y=\displaystyle -\frac{4}{5}x+b:

y=\displaystyle -\frac{4}{5}x+0\\\\y=\displaystyle -\frac{4}{5}x

<u>Question 5</u>

<u>1) Determine the slope (</u><u><em>m</em></u><u>)</u>

\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Two easy-to-identify points are (-1,2) and (0,-3). Plug these into the equation:

\displaystyle m=\frac{-3-2}{0-(-1)}\\\\\displaystyle m=\frac{-3-2}{0+1}\\\\\displaystyle m=\frac{-5}{1}\\\\m=-5

Therefore, the slope is -5. Plug this into y=mx+b:

y=-5x+b

<u>2) Determine the y-intercept (</u><u><em>b</em></u><u>)</u>

On the graph, we can see that the line crosses the y-axis at the point (0,-3). The y-coordinate of this point is -3. Therefore, the y-intercept (<em>b</em>) is -3. Plug this into y=-5x+b:

y=-5x+(-3)\\y=-5x-3

I hope this helps!

Find two consecutive numbers whose squares differ by 45
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The 2 numbers are 22 and 23

Step-by-step explanation:

let the two numbers be x and x+1

according to the question:

(x+1)^2 - x^2 = 45

x^2+1+2x - x^2 = 45

2x + 1 = 45

2x= 44

x = 22

the other number is x+1 = 22+1 = 23

therefore, the two consecutive numbers are 22 and 23

Hope it helped u....
