No its not because its a repeating decimal for a number to be a irrational number it has to be non terminating or non repeating
Answer:
f(x) = -5/9 x + 5 1/9
Step-by-step explanation:
f(2)=4 and f(−7)=9 means the line pass through (2,4) and (- 7,9)
f(x) = mx + b
m = (y-y') / (x-x') = (9 - 4) / (- 7 - 2) = - 5/9
for (2,4) : b = f(x) - mx = y - mx = 4 - (- 5/9) x 2 = 4 + 10/9 = 46/9 = 5 1/9
f(x) = -5/9 x + 5 1/9
check for (-7, 9) f(-7) = (-5/9) * (-7) + 5 1/9 = 35/9 + 46/9 = 81/9 = 9
Answer:
vertex = (- 5, - 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a quadratic in standard form : ax² + bx + c = 0 : a ≠ 0
Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is
= - 
Given x² + 10x = - 17 ( add 17 to both sides )
x² + 10x + 17 = 0 ← in standard form
with a = 1, b = 10, c = 17, then
= -
= - 5
Substitute x = - 5 into the quadratic for the corresponding value of y
y = (- 5)² + 10(- 5) + 17 = 25 - 50 + 17 = - 8
Hence vertex = (- 5, - 8)
