Answer:

The value of x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • The point (x,-4)
  • The point (2,8)

To determine

  • m = -3

Using the formula

Slope = m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

here:

  • (x₁, y₁) = (x, -4)
  • (x₂, y₂) = (2, 8)
  • m = -3

so substitute (x₁, y₁) = (x, -4) , (x₂, y₂) = (2, 8)  and m = -3

m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

-3 =  [8 - (-4)] / [2 - x]

-3 = [12] / [2-x]  

-3 (2-x) = 12

-6+3x = 12

3x = 12+6

3x = 18

divide  both sides by 3

3x/3 = 18/3

x = 6

Therefore, the value of x = 6

PLEASE HELP DUE IN LESS THAN 5 WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

1. 1:4

2. y = 4 x X

3. yes

Step-by-step explanation:

1. every 1 minuet he cleans 4 shrimp

2. y is the number of shrimp and x is the time. if every miuet he cleans 4 shrimp, then that means you have to multiply the shrimp by the minuets. for example, if he spends 2 minuets, he cleans 8 shrimp because 2 x 4 = 8.

3. This is a proportional relationship because if you were to put this on a graph, it would be a strait line. for example, if you were to plot x (the time) on a line (this line would go horizontal) and y (shrimp) on the line (this line goes verticle) 1 minuet = 4 shrimp. 2 minuets = 8 shrimp. 3 minuets = 12 shrimp. 4 minuets = 16 shrimp.

i hope this helps. tell me if this is too confusing or if you need more help. have a great day :)

Suppose f(x)=x^2. what is the graph of g(x)=f(3x)?<br>​
Katarina [22]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

because since there is no negative sign in front of the 3x we automatially know there is no reflection so that rules out answers A and B. Then, since 3 is greater than 1 we can determine that it is a stretch which would rule out answer C so the answer is D
