Answer:

x = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

(2,5)

(x,3)

m = 1/2

Formula

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Solution

y2 = 3

y1 = 5

x2 = x

x1 = 2

1/2 = (3 - 5)/(x - 2) Cross multiply

1*(x - 2) = 2 (-2) Combine and remove the brackets.

x - 2 = - 4 Add 2 to both sides

x = - 4 + 2

x = - 2

‼️ IM BEING TIMED PLEASE HELP‼️ Which is the graph of fix) = 4(3)?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

After graphing the function f(x) = $4(\frac{1}{2})^{x}$ we can see that the correct graph is the middle one in the picture. This is because with an x-input of 1 the value of 1/2 will stay the same and when multiplied by 4 it would give us a y-coordinate of 2 as seen in the middle graph. The y-coordinate keeps decreasing exponentially by half for every increase in the x-coordinate. A zoomed-in version of the graph can be seen in the attached picture below for a better understanding.
