65 kg i think or 143 pounds
Remark
You can just look at the graph to find out the y intercept. The y intercept is the point where x = 0. The point for the y intercept is (0,-2). So B is definitely wrong.
To get the slope, you can just use the x intercept which is (-3,0)
When y = 0, x = - 3. We need to do a little calculation to get the slope.
So far what we have is
y = mx - 2
y = 0
x = -3
0 = m(-3) - 2 Add 2 to both sides.
2 = m(-3) Divide by - 3
2/-3 = m
Now let's see what we have.
y = -2/3x - 2
C is the correct answer
For this case we have the following transformation:
Assume k> 0
To graph f (x) + k, move the graph k units up.
Applying the transformation we have:
y = x ^ 2 + 5/2
Answer:
The equation of the new parabola is:
y = x ^ 2 + 5/2
Vertex:(-19/39,-49/39)
x-int: (-4/13,0) and (-2/3,0)
