Slope: (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Points: (-4,-6), (2,6)
(6+6)/(2+6) = 12/8 = 3/2
Y = 3/2x +b
-6 = 3/2(-4) + b
-6 = -6 + b, b = 0
Equation: y = 3/2x
Answer:
Last one I think
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Tis 0
Step-by-step explanation:
4 out of 10 (or 4/10) is written as .4 as a decimal. This is because when you divide 4 by 10, you get .4
Answer:
A) (3, 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
For such a problem, I like to use a graphing calculator. It shows the answer quickly without a lot of fuss.

If you want to solve this analytically, set the difference in y-values equal to zero and solve the resulting quadratic in the usual way. This will give the x-value at which the y-values are equal. (After we find x, we still need to find y.)
... y - y = 0
... x² -2x +9 -4x = 0
... x² -6x +9 = 0 . . . . . . collect terms. Recognize this as a perfect square.
... (x -3)² = 0
... x = 3 is the solution to this
... y = 4x = 4·3 = 12
The point on each of the given curves is (x, y) = (3, 12). The line is tangent to the parabola there, so there is only one point of intersection.
