Answer:

The equation of line is y = -4x -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Slope of the line = -4

Line passes through the point ( -3, 8)

The general equation of line is given by;

y - y1 =m(x-x1)

Putting the point and slope in equation

y - 8 = -4(x - (-3))

y - 8 = -4(x+3)

y - 8 = -4x - 12

y = -4x - 12 + 8

y = -4x -4

Hence,

The equation of line is y = -4x -4.

Answer:

  • Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

A'B' is 1/2 times the AB as the scale factor is 1/2.

<u>Find the length of AB using distance formula.</u>

  • AB = \sqrt{(4 - 2)^2 + (4-0)^2}  = \sqrt{20}  = 2\sqrt{5}

<u>And find A'B':</u>

  • A'B' = 1/2*2\sqrt{5}  = \sqrt{5}

Correct choice is A

Vertex form is f(x)=a(x-p)^2 +q. How do i determine a?
slamgirl [31]
Y1 is the simplest parabola.  Its vertex is at (0,0) and it passes thru (2,4).  This is enough info to conclude that y1 = x^2.

y4, the lower red graph, is a bit more of a challenge.  We can easily identify its vertex, which is (-4,0), and several points on the grah, such as (2,-3).

Let's try this:  assume that the general equation for a parabola is 
y-k = a(x-h)^2, where (h,k) is the vertex.  Subst. the known values,

-3-(-4) = a(2-0)^2.  Then 1 = a(2)^2, or 1 = 4a, or a = 1/4.

The equation of parabola y4 is   y+4 = (1/4)x^2

Or you could elim. the fraction and write the eqn as 4y+16=x^2, or

4y = x^2-16, or    y = (1/4)x - 4.  Take your pick!  Hope this helps you find "a" for the other parabolas.

Solve this equation: 3x-1/5-2/9x=124/5
Vaselesa [24]
Well, you can only combine the numbers with the variable (the x) in front of them, since there’s no other number on the left side of the equation to combine that lone number with

(example: 3x+2+5x; you can only add 3x and 5x together since 2 has no x).

So 3x and -2/9x would be your answer.
