Answer:

Slope: 2

Y-intercept: (0, -1) or - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the linear equation, -4x + 2y = -2:

Transform the given equation into its slope-intercept form, y = mx + b:

-4x + 2y = -2

Add 4x to both sides:

-4x + 4x + 2y = 4x - 2

2y = 4x - 2

Divide both sides by 2 to isolate y:

$\frac{2y}{2} = \frac{4x - 2}{2}$

y = 2x - 1 ⇒ This is the slope-intercept form where the slope, m = 2, and the y-intercept is (0, -1).

The circumference of F is 120 cm what is the length of DE the minor arc

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Option E 15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The circumference of a circle subtends a central angle of 360 degrees

using proportion

Find out the length of arc DE by a central angle of 45 degrees

Let

x -----> the length of arc DE

$\frac{120}{360}=\frac{x}{45}\\\\x=120*45/360\\\\x=15\ cm$

A rock is thrown upward from a bridge that is 57 feet above a road. The rock reaches its maximum height above the road 0.76 seco

bekas [8.4K]

answer:

$f(t) = -9.9788169(t -0.76)^2 +57$

Step-by-step explanation:

On this question we see that we are given two points on a certain graph that has a maximum point at 57 feet and in 0.76 seconds after it is thrown, we know can say this point is a turning point of a graph of the rock that is thrown as we are told that the function f determines the rocks height above the road (in feet) in terms of the number of seconds t since the rock was thrown therefore this turning point coordinate can be written as (0.76, 57) as we are told the height represents y and x is represented by time in seconds. We are further given another point on the graph where the height is now 0 feet on the road then at this point its after 3.15 seconds in which the rock is thrown in therefore this coordinate is (3.15,0).

now we know if a rock is thrown it moves in a shape of a parabola which we see this equation is quadratic. Now we will use the turning point equation for a quadratic equation to get a equation for the height which the format is $f(x)= a(x-p)^2 +q$ , where (p,q) is the turning point. now we substitute the turning point
