Answer:

y = -3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

-1 - 8 / 1 - (-2)

-9/3

= -3

y = -3x + b

-1 = -3(1) + b

-1 = -3 + b

2 = b

Kipish [7]

For this case we have an equation of the form:
$h (t) = (1/2) * (a) * (t ^ 2) + v0 * t + h0
$
Where,
h0: initial height
v0: initial speed
a: acceleration
Substituting values we have:
$h (t) = (1/2) * (- 32) * (t ^ 2) + 0.25 * t + 12
$
Rewriting we have:
$h (t) = -16t ^ 2 + 0.25 * t + 12
$
Note: see attached image
Answer:
$h (t) = -16t ^ 2 + 0.25 * t + 12$

The value of x satisfying both the equations 4x – 5 = y and 2x – y = 3, when y = -1 is

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-5=y

4x-5= -1

4x = -1+5

4x=4

x=1

2x-y=3

2x-(-1)=3

2x+1=3

2x= 3-1

2x= 2

x=1

since the two answers for x are the same therefore:

x = 1
