Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
first, we find the slope
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(-3,7)....x1 = -3 and y1 = 7
(9,-1)...x2 = 9 and y2 = -1
now we sub
slope(m) = (-1 - 7) / (9 - (-3) = -8 / (9 + 3) = -8 / 12 reduces to - 2/3
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2/3
use either of ur points...I will use (-3,7)...x = -3 and y = 7
now we sub and find b, the y intercept
7 = -2/3(-3) + b
7 = 2 + b
7 - 2 = b
5 = b
so ur equation is : y = -2/3x + 5 <===
just subsitute
f(4)=4²+3(4)-1
f(4)=16+12-1
f(4)=28-1
f(4)=27
it approaches 27 as x approaches 4
Answer:
They are not parallel because their slopes are not equal
