If f(x)= 3x+1 is reflect across the y-axis; what would the slope & y-intercept be? *

Elden [556K]

Answer: f(x) = -3x + 1

So the slope is -3 and the y-intercept is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because it’s across the y-axis so the y-intercept doesn’t change. Because it’s a reflection the slope just becomes the opposite of what it originally was, so in this case it will be -3

What is the measure of angle x? (Brainly + Bonus points for the best correct answer and explain)

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer: 76

Step-by-step explanation:

If a pair of parallel lines are cut by a line, the alternate angles are equal to each other. The angles 76 and x are alternate angles, so that means they are equal.

2. Solve the system of equations. Write your answer in parametric vector notation. X, +5x2 + 4x3 + 3x4 +9xs = 18 2x, +6x2 + 4x3

ratelena [41]

Answer:

The system is inconsistent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The system is

$x_1+5x_2+4x_3+3x_4+9x_5=18\\2x_1+6x_2+4x_3+6x_4+6x_5=28\\3x_1+7x_2+4x_3+10x_4+x_5=41\\4x_1+6x_2+2x_3+7x_4+4x_5=29$

The associated matrix to the system is

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\2&6&4&6&6&28\\3&7&4&10&1&41\\4&6&2&7&4&29\end{array}\right]$

Now we use row operations to find the echelon form of the matrix:

1. We substract to row 2, two times the row 1.

We substract to row 3, three times the row 1.

We substract to row 4, four times the row 1 and obtain the matrix

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&-4&-4&0&-12&-8\\0&-8&-8&1&-26&-13\\0&-14&-14&-5&-32&-43\end{array}\right]$

2. We multiply the second row of the preview step by -1/4. We obtain the matrix

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&1&1&0&3&2\\0&-8&-8&1&-26&-13\\0&-14&-14&-5&-32&-43\end{array}\right]$

We add to row 3, eight times the row 2.

We add to row 4, fourtheen times the row 2 and obtain the matrix

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&1&1&0&3&2\\0&0&0&1&-2&3\\0&0&0&-5&10&-155\end{array}\right]$

4. We add to row 4 of the preview step, five times the row 3 and obtain the matrix

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&1&1&0&3&2\\0&0&0&1&-2&3\\0&0&0&0&0&-140\end{array}\right]$

Using backward substitution we have that

$0x_5=-140$ , then $0=-140$ and this is absurd. Then The system is inconsistent.
