Answer:
D, the last answer choice
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b is the formula. 2/3x is the slope and 3 is the y intercept.
Answer:
a₆ = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a common ratio r between consecutive terms in the sequence, that is
r = 
= 
= 
= - 
This indicates the sequence is geometric.
To obtain any term in the sequence, multiply the previous term by r, thus
a₅ = 216 × - = - 36
a₆ = - 36 × - = 6
<span> first, write the equation of the parabola in the required form: </span>
<span>(y - k) = a·(x - h)² </span>
<span>Here, (h, k) is given as (-1, -16). </span>
<span>So you have: </span>
<span>(y + 16) = a · (x + 1)² </span>
<span>Unfortunately, a is not given. However, you do know one additional point on the parabola: (0, -15): </span>
<span>-15 + 16 = a· (0 + 1)² </span>
<span>.·. a = 1 </span>
<span>.·. the equation of the parabola in vertex form is </span>
<span>y + 16 = (x + 1)² </span>
<span>The x-intercepts are the values of x that make y = 0. So, let y = 0: </span>
<span>0 + 16 = (x + 1)² </span>
<span>16 = (x + 1)² </span>
<span>We are trying to solve for x, so take the square root of both sides - but be CAREFUL! </span>
<span>± 4 = x + 1 ...... remember both the positive and negative roots of 16...... </span>
<span>Solving for x: </span>
<span>x = -1 + 4, x = -1 - 4 </span>
<span>x = 3, x = -5. </span>
<span>Or, if you prefer, (3, 0), (-5, 0). </span>
At the beining, he has 76
that is at x=0
y=mx+76
find m
given
when x=2, y=100
find m
100=2m+76
minus 76 both sides
24=2m
divide both sides by 2
12=m
the equatin is
y=12x+76
