Answer: y = - 4x + 2
Explanation:
The graph shows a linear function, which is a first degree polynomial, whose form is ax + b.
The rule or fucntion is f(x) = y = ax + b. This form is called the slope-intercept form, because the coefficient a is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.
The graph permits you to calculate both parameters.
1) The slope, a is defined in this way:
- a = rise / run = [change in y] / [change in x] = [y₂ -y₁] / [x₂ - x₁]
- you can use the points (0, - 2) and (-1,2):
⇒ a = [ 2 - (-2) ] / [ -1 - 0 ] = 4 / (-1) = - 4
2) b, the y-intercept, is the value of the function, y, when x = 0. In the graph you can see that this is - 2. b = - 2.
3) Substituting the values of a and b in the form y = ax + b, you the rule:
X=6+3y
Let me know if you need the steps:)
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't see options but here's the solution
2x²+9x-3=-x²+x
2x²+x²+9x-x-3=0
3x²+8x-3=0
(3x-1)(x+3)=0
Therefore x=⅓ or-3
Looks like 75%. Not sure what they're talking about for the reduce part.
Answer: It's being divided by 5. hope this helps
