Answer:

1. slanting upward because the slope is positive one.

2. A: 3/4 B: 4/-3

3. A: 3 B: y=3x-10

1. (-2-7)/(-4-5) = -9/-9 = 1

2. A: (7-4)/(7-3) = 3/4

B: (8-0)/(-6-0) = 8/-6 = 4/-3

3. find the slope first so (4-1)/(2-1)= 3/1. then you plug in point C to find the y intercept so y=mx+b would be 2=3(4)+b which makes it so b is -10. the new equation would be y=3x-10

Use the quadratic function f(x) = 2x^2 + 4x - 15. Find any x intercepts.

8_murik_8 [283]

So for this function we will be using the quadratic formula, which is $x=\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a},\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$ , to solve. a = x^2 coefficient, b = x coefficient, and c = constant. Using our equation, we can solve for the zeros (x-intercepts) as such:

$x=\frac{-4+\sqrt{4^2-4*2*(-15)}}{2*2},\frac{-4-\sqrt{4^2-4*2*(-15)}}{2*2}\\ \\ x=\frac{-4+\sqrt{16-(-120)}}{4},\frac{-4-\sqrt{16-(-120)}}{4}\\ \\ x=\frac{-4+\sqrt{136}}{4},\frac{-4-\sqrt{136}}{4}\\ \\ x=1.92,-3.92$

In short, your x-intercepts (rounded to the hundredths) are (1.92,0) and (-3.92,0).
