Answer:

m = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug 2 coordinates into the slope formula

(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

For this I will choose the first and third coordinates:

15-7/5-1 = 2

The slope is 2

Y = x² - 4x convert from standard to vertex form

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

$y = (x-2)^{2} -4$

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete the square: add 4 to both sides because the product of 4 as 2 as the factor which 2 * 2 so $2^{2}$

$y + ? = x^{2} - 4x + ?$

$y + 2^{2} = x^{2} - 4x + 2^{2}$

$y + 4 = x^{2} - 4x + 4$

Now we can factor the expression

$y + 4 = (x-2)^{2}$

Move the 4 to the other side to isolate y which changes the sign

$y = (x-2)^{2} - 4$

Find the value of the expressions 3x^3-2y^3-6x^2y^2+xy for x=2/3 and y=1/2

fiasKO [112]

Hi!

$3x^3-2y^3-6x^2y^2+xy=\\\\=3\cdot(\frac{2}{3})^3-2\cdot(\frac{1}{2})^3-6\cdot(\frac{2}{3})^2\cdot(\frac{1}{2})^2+\frac{2}{3}\cdot\frac{1}{2}=\\\\=3\cdot\frac{8}{27}-2\cdot\frac{1}{8}-6\cdot\frac{4}{9}\cdot\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{3}=\\\\=\frac{8}{9}-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{8}{9}-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{32}{36}-\frac{9}{36}-\frac{12}{36}=\boxed{\frac{11}{36}}$

A construction worker is tasked with tiling two square rooms, room A and room B. Room B has side lengths that are double the sid

swat32

Answer:

4 boxes of tiles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both rooms are square, so each has equal sides. Let's set a side to room A as x. It's area would be x^2. Room B has sides = 2x, so it's area would be (2x)^2 or 4x^2. The ratio of the areas B/A = 4x^2/x^2. B/A = 4.

Room B has 4 times the area of A. If one box of tile completes Room A, Room B would need four times that amount, or 4 boxes.
