Algebraically, linear functions are polynomials with highest exponent equal to 1 or of the form y = c where c is constant. Nonlinear functions are all other functions. An example of a nonlinear function is y = x^2. This is nonlinear because, although it is a polynomial, its highest exponent is 2, not 1.

What is the equation of a line with a x-intercept of −2 and a y-intercept of 10?

IceJOKER [234]

Hey there! :)

Answer:

y = 5x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, we can derive the points (-2, 0) and (0, 10). Find the slope using the slope formula:

$m = \frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Plug in the points:

$m= \frac{10 - 0}{0 - (-2)}$

Simplify:

$m= \frac{10}{2}$

m = 5.

The equation in slope-intercept form is y = mx + b. We were already given the b value, or y-intercept as y = 10. Therefore:

y = 5x + 10 is the equation written in slope-intercept form.

Solve for x: 2+3 (x+2x) = -2x(2-4) +1

Ronch [10]

Answer:

x = -1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

2+3 (x+2x) = -2x(2-4) +1

Combine like terms

2+3(3x) = -2x (-2) +1

Distribute

2+9x = 4x +1

Subtract 4x from each side

2+9x-4x = 4x+1-4x

2+5x = 1

Subtract 2 from each sdie

5x = 1-2

5x = -1

Divide by 5

5x/5 = -1/5

x = -1/5

How can you use expressions and models to determine if expressions are equivalent

Hunter-Best [27]

To check for equivalence, use properties of operations such as the Distributive Property. Two expression are said to be equivalent if they resulted in the same number after evaluation of each. You can both expand and factor expressions to generate equivalent expressions.
