Answer:
y = 4x + -9
Step-by-step explanation:
The y intercept which is -9, is the point in which the graph crosses the x-axis
In order to find the slope we need to identify two clear points on the graph.
- (0, -9)
- ( 1, -5)
Now that we have our two points we need to find the distance between them.
As you can see on the attachment the distance between the two points is 4 units up and 1 unit to the right, therefore the slope is 4/1 = 4.
Final Answer: y = 4x + -9
Answer:
not 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Option A: drop of 8 meters would be correct because a drop in this case indicates something has been removed. -8 equals 8 below 0.
Answer:
Below in BOLD.
Step-by-step explanation:
5x^2 - 6x - 2 = 0
Quadratic formula for ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is
x = [-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)]/ 2a
Here we have a = 5, b = -6 and c = -2
so x = [-(-6) ± √((-6)^2 - 4*5*-2)]/ 2*5
= [ 6 ± √(36 + 40)] / 10
= 0.6 ± √76 / 10
= 0.6 ± 0.8718
= 1.4718, -0.2718
= 1.5, -0.3 to one decimal place.
x^2 + 3x = 40
x^2 + 3x - 40 = 0
We can factor this one:
(x - 5)(x + 8) = 0
x - 5 = 0 giving x = 5 and
x + 8 = 0 giving x = -8.
Answer x = -8, 5.
