Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 12x + a = (x + b)²

x² - 12x + a = x² + 2xb + b²

-12 = 2b and a = b²

b = -6

a = b² = 36

Axis of symmetry for this function will be x=2 because your origin point is always the reference for the line of symmetry. In this case, it as been shifted to the right 2 units giving you x=2. Firstly, the transformation is a horizontal stretch by a factor of 10. Secondly, it is shifted 2 units to the right and finally shifted 7 units down. Remember when a constant is added or subtracted to x in a function, it is shifted the number of u its opposite of the constant. When there is a constant separate from x, such as outside parentheses or absolute value bars, it is shifted up or down the given amount.

100 BRAINLY POINTS!!!
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

C)   y=-0.5x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Line of best fit (trendline) : a line through a scatter plot of data points that best expresses the relationship between those points.

All the given options for the line of best fit are linear equations.

Therefore, we can add the line of best fit to the graph (see attached), remembering to have roughly the same number of points above and below the line.

Linear equation:  y=mx+b

(where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept)

From inspection of the line of best fit, we can see that the y-intercept (where x = 0) is approximately 8.  So this suggests that options C or D are the solution.

We can also see that the slope (gradient) of the line of best fit is approximately -0.5 (as the rate of change (y/x) is -1 unit of y for every +2 units of x).

Therefore, C is the solution, and the closet approximation to the line of best fit is y=-0.5x+8

Please help with algebra problem

Number of weekend minutes used: x
Number of weekday minutes used: y

This month Nick was billed for 643 minutes:
(1) x+y=643

The charge for these minutes was $35.44
Telephone company charges $0.04 per minute for weekend calls (x)
and $0.08 per minute for calls made on weekdays (y)
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44

We have a system of 2 equations and 2 unkowns:
(1) x+y=643
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44

Using the method of substitution
Isolating x from the first equation:
(1) x+y-y=643-y
(3) x=643-y

Replacing x by 643-y in the second equation
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44
0.04(643-y)+0.08y=35.44
25.72-0.04y+0.08y=35.44
0.04y+25.72=35.44

Solving for y:
0.04y+25.72-25.72=35.44-25.72
0.04y=9.72

Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.04:
0.04y/0.04=9.72/0.04
y=243

Replacing y by 243 in the equation (3)
(3) x=643-y
x=643-243
x=400

Answers:
The number of weekends minutes used was 400
The number of weekdays minutes used was 243
