Answer:

slope = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 80) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 160) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{160-80}{4-2}$ = $\frac{80}{2}$ = $\frac{40}{1}$ = 40

When the polynomial is written in standard form, what are the values of the leading coefficient and the constant? 5x + 2 - 3x^2

earnstyle [38]

Leading coefficient = -3
Constant = 2

When you order them in standard form, you need to put them in ascending order of the exponents. Therefore the -3x^2 would come first, which makes the number attached (-3) the lead coefficient.

Also, since the number (2) without an x attached would be last (due to the power of x technically being 0), than that is the constant.

Need help on this one

ivolga24 [154]

If a triangle has side lengths 5, 5, and 8, then the triangle should be classified as isosceles.

This is because an isosceles triangle has two sides of the same length and one side of a different length. This isn’t an equilateral triangle (where all sides are of equal length) or a scalene triangle (where all sides are of different lengths).

Hope this helps!

Solve the system using elimination.

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

After simplifying we get (x,y) as (1,3).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$x+7y=22$ ,

$x-7y=-17$

We need to use elimination method to solve the and simplify the equations.

Solution;

Let $x+7y=22$ ⇒ equation 1

Also Let $4x-7y=-17$ ⇒ equation 2

Now by solving the equation we get;

first we will Add equation 2 from equation 1 we get;

$(x+7y)+(4x-7y)=22+(-17)\\\\x+7y+4x-7y=22-17\\\\5x=5$

Now Dividing both side by 5 using division property of equality we get;

$\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{5}{5}\\\\x=1$

Now Substituting the vale of x in equation 1 we get;

$x+7y=22\\\\1+7y=22$

subtracting both side by 1 using subtraction property of equality we get;

$1+7y-1=22-1\\\\7y=21$

Now Dividing both side by 7 using division property of equality we get;

$\frac{7y}{7}=\frac{21}{7}\\\\y=3$

Hence we can say that, After simplifying we get (x,y) as (1,3).

Maths functions question!!

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

5) DE = 7 units and DF = 4 units

6) ST = 8 units

$\textsf{7)} \quad \sf OM=\dfrac{3}{2}\:units$

8) x ≤ -3 and x ≥ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Information from Parts 1-4:</u>

brainly.com/question/28193969

$f(x)=-x+3$

$g(x)=x^2-9$

A = (3, 0) and C = (-3, 0)

Points A and D are the <u>points of intersection</u> of the two functions.

To find the x-values of the points of intersection, equate the two functions and solve for x:

$\implies g(x)=f(x)$

$\implies x^2-9=-x+3$

$\implies x^2+x-12=0$

$\implies x^2+4x-3x-12=0$

$\implies x(x+4)-3(x+4)=0$

$\implies (x-3)(x+4)=0$

Apply the zero-product property:

$\implies (x-3)= \implies x=3$

$\implies (x+4)=0 \implies x=-4$

From inspection of the graph, we can see that the x-value of point D is <u>negative</u>, therefore the x-value of point D is x = -4.

To find the y-value of point D, substitute the found value of x into one of the functions:

$\implies f(-4)=-(-4)=7$

Therefore, D = (-4, 7).

The length of DE is the difference between the y-value of D and the x-axis:

⇒ DE = 7 units

The length of DF is the difference between the x-value of D and the x-axis:

⇒ DF = 4 units

To find point S, substitute the x-value of point T into function g(x):

$\implies g(4)=(4)^2-9=7$

Therefore, S = (4, 7).

The length ST is the difference between the y-values of points S and T:

$\implies ST=y_S-y_T=7-(-1)=8$

Therefore, ST = 8 units.

The given length of QR (⁴⁵/₄) is the difference between the functions at the same value of x. To find the x-value of points Q and R (and therefore the x-value of point M), subtract g(x) from f(x) and equate to QR, then solve for x:

$\implies f(x)-g(x)=QR$
