Answer: y = -6x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

rise/run is 6/1 so slope = 6

Answer:

y = -6x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, you do rise/run. To get to one point from another, you move one unit to the right, and six units down.

Now to find the y-intercept, you need to identify the point that meets in the y-axis. That would be 2.

Hope this helps!

What's the answer to 1/2(x+4)^2-5+=3.

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation you would need to get x by itself on one side

1/2 (x+4)^2 - 5 = 3

1.) add 5 to both sides

1/2 (x+4)^2 = 8

2.) divide each side by 1/2

(x+4)^2 = 16

3.) find the square root of both sides

(x+4) = 4

4.) subtract 4 from both sides

x = 0

The app "Photomath" is a great way to solve problems like these and it gives a step by step explanation that might be easier to understand than mine :)

Solve for XX. Assume XX is a 2×22×2 matrix and II denotes the 2×22×2 identity matrix. Do not use decimal numbers in your answer.

sveticcg [70]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:

Solve for X. Assume X is a 2x2 matrix and I denotes the 2x2 identity matrix. Do not use decimal numbers in your answer. If there are fractions, leave them unevaluated.

$\left[\begin{array}{cc}2&8\\-6&-9\end{array}\right]$ · X· $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9&-3\\7&-6\end{array}\right]$ =I.

First, we have to identify the matrix I. As it was said, the matrix is the identiy matrix, which means

I = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]$

So, $\left[\begin{array}{cc}2&8\\-6&-9\end{array}\right]$ · X· $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9&-3\\7&-6\end{array}\right]$ = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]$

Isolating the X, we have

X· $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9&-3\\7&-6\end{array}\right]$ = $\left[\begin{array}{cc}2&8\\-6&-9\end{array}\right]$ - $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]$

Resolving:

X· $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9&-3\\7&-6\end{array}\right]$ = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2-1&8-0\\-6-0&-9-1\end{array}\right]$

X· $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9&-3\\7&-6\end{array}\right]$ = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&8\\-6&-10\end{array}\right]$

Now, we have a problem similar to A.X=B. To solve it and because we don't divide matrices, we do X=A⁻¹·B. In this case,

X= $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9&-3\\7&-6\end{array}\right]$ ⁻¹· $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&8\\-6&-10\end{array}\right]$

Now, a matrix with index -1 is called Inverse Matrix and is calculated as: A . A⁻¹ = I.

So,

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9&-3\\7&-6\end{array}\right]$ · $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right]$ = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]$

9a - 3b = 1

7a - 6b = 0

9c - 3d = 0

7c - 6d = 1

Resolving these equations, we have a= $\frac{2}{11}$ ; b= $\frac{7}{33}$ ; c= $\frac{-1}{11}$ and d= $\frac{-3}{11}$ . Substituting:

X= $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{2}{11} &\frac{-1}{11} \\\frac{7}{33}&\frac{-3}{11} \end{array}\right]$ · $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&8\\-6&-10\end{array}\right]$
