Draw a cartesian plane, create a graph with the equation x = y^2 - 2
then substitute numbers into the equation so that it is true, to find points on the graph, e.g. substitute y with 1, you get
x = 1^2 - 2
x = 1 - 2 = -1, so when y = 1, x = -1, this point is (-1, 1)
for the next substitute y with 2,
x = 2^2 - 2
x = 4 - 2 = 2, the point is (2, 2)
you might want to try negative values of y
y = -1, x = (-1)^2 - 2
x = -1 the point is (-1,-1)
then plot the points on the graph
The value of the equation is 2.56
J -60

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
✔️The rate of change can be calculated using the coordinates of any two points on the graph. Let's use (2, 60) and (3, 75):

Rate of change (m) = 15
✅In the context of this situation, the rate of change can be interpreted to be the additional fee per class. Thus, an additional fee per class cost $15.
✔️Initial value is the same as the y-intercept.
To find the y-intercept (b), substitute m = 15, x = 2, and y = 60 into y = mx + b.
Thus:
60 = 15(2) + b
60 = 30 + b
60 - 30 = b
30 = b
b = 30
The initial value/y-intercept = $30
✅In this context, $30 is the start-up fee to cover art supplies.
Answer: FIRST OPTION
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem you must apply the Intersecting Secant-Tangent Theorem. By definition, when a secant line and a tangent lline and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point:

The total measure of the secant shown is:

If the radius is 7, then the diameter is:

Therefore:

You also know that:

Keeping the above on mind, you can substitute values and solve for x:
