What is:<br> 1/4 (q-12) + 1/4 (q-4)<br> simplified??

Alexandra [31]

Answer: -b - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

First, since the a cancel eachother out we are left with (4-b) + (-6-7)

Second, you want to add the -6 and -7 to get -13, so (4-b) - 13

Finally, add the 4 to the negative 13 to get (-b - 9)

Hope this helps.

Help! I have looked at so many lessons on writing exponential functions from a graph and nothing has helped.

Over [174]

Answer:

y = $8(-\frac{1}{2})^x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the exponential function is,

y = a(b)ˣ

Since the graph of this function passes through two points $(4, \frac{1}{2})$ and (3, -1)

For the point $(4, \frac{1}{2})$ ,

$\frac{1}{2}=a(b)^4$ ---------(1)

For second point (3, -1),

-1 = a(b)³ ---------(2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1),

$\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{-1}$ = $\frac{a(b)^4}{a(b)^3}$

$-\frac{1}{2}=b^{(4-3)}$

$-\frac{1}{2}=b$

From equation (2)

-1 = $a(-\frac{1}{2})^3$

-1 = $-\frac{1}{8}a$

a = 8

Therefore, equation of the exponential function will be,

y = $8(-\frac{1}{2})^x$

What is the y-intercept of the line whose equation is y =1/2 x - 3?<br><br> 3<br> 1/2<br> -3

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx +b

Here , m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

y = (1/2)x - 3

y-intercept = -3

Find the area of the shaded region (in the photo and step by step response please)

irina1246 [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of shaded =Area of Outer rectangle - Area of Inner rectangle.

Area of inner rectangle = L× B.

L=18

B=11

Area of inner rectangle = 18×11

=198m^2

To find the full breadth of the outer rectangle

=2 in +11 + 2 in

=15

To find the full length of the outer rectangle

=2 in + 18 + 2 in

=22

Area= 22 × 15

Area = 330m^2

Area of shaded portion = 330 - 198

=132m^2
