Answer:
You could use a graphing calculator to see the lowest point in the graph OR you could put that equation into it's completed squared form, which is (x-4)^2 -4. The opposite of -4 in the parentheses is positive 4, and the leftover -4 is the y value. So that also becomes (4,-4)
Y is directly proportional to x and therefore takes the form y=kx where k is the constant of proportionality.
Dividing both sides by x for the given values, k becomes 18/4 = 4.5
Answer:
1.) A diameter of a circle is any straight line segment that passes through the center of the circle and whose endpoints lie on the circle.
2.) 8
3.) 201 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Nothing to "solve" here. Just graph this absolute value function.
Note that if x=2 we get y = -4. Thus, (2,-4) is the vertex. Plot this point.
Now, starting from (2, -4), draw a line at a 45 degree angle to the horizontal.
Then draw a corresponding line on the other side of the y-axis. You're done!
