What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-8,3) and has a slope of -1/4

Answers

Answer 1
The slope is -1/4, which is -0.25x. We know that we are exactly 8 units to the left of the y axis, so we can use the slope to determine the change within the coordinates as the line moves across the graph. The slope has a rise of -1 and a run of 4, meaning every 4 units to the right will be 1 unit up. We must move 8 units to the right, which in turn moves the graph down 8 quarter units. 8 x (1/4) is 2, so we know that the graph has moved down 2 units. (Down because the graph has a negative slope). (-8,3)->(0,1). From this coordinate, we can see the y intercept is 1. Since y=mx+b, we can write y=-1/4x+1. This is your equation. (Sorry for the length, wanted to be thorough)
Answer 2

y=-1/4x+1 is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-8,3) and has a slope of -1/4

What is Slope of Line?

The slope of the line is the ratio of the rise to the run, or rise divided by the run. It describes the steepness of line in the coordinate plane.

The slope intercept form of a line is y=mx+b, where m is slope and b is the y intercept.

The slope of line passing through two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is

m=y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

We have to find equation of  the line that passes through the point (-8,3) and has a slope of -1/4

m=-1/4

Let us find y intercept

3=-1/4(-8)+b

3=2+b

b=1

Hence, y=-1/4x+1 is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-8,3) and has a slope of -1/4

If f(x)= 4x^2
+3 , find
f(0)

f(-2)

Answers

Answer:

f(0) =  3

f(-2) = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= 4x^2 +3

1)   f(x) = 4x^2 +3

    f(0) = 4(0)^2 +3

    f(0) =               3

2)   f(x) = 4x^2 +3

      f(-2) = 4(-2)^2 +3

      f(-2) = 4(4) +3

       f(-2) = 19

H(2,2) K(6,4)
(2+6/2) (2+4/2)

Answer: (4,3)

Answer:

Midpoint : (4,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

midpoint = [tex](\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} ,\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )[/tex]

Where the x and y values are derived from the given points.

We are given points H and K which are at (2,2) and (6,4)

We have (x1,y1) = (2,2) so x1 = 2 and y2 = 2

As well as (x2,y2) = (6,4) so x2 = 6 and y2 = 4

To find the midpoint we simply plug in the values of x and y into the formula

Recall the formula [tex](\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} ,\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )[/tex]

x1 = 2 , x2 = 6 , y1 = 2 and y2 = 4

plug in these values into the formula

[tex](\frac{2+6}{2} ,\frac{2+4}{2} )[/tex]

add top values: 2 + 6 = 8 and 2 + 4 = 6

[tex](\frac{8}{2} ,\frac{6}{2} )[/tex]

simplify fractions : 8/2 = 4 and 6/2 = 3

3. Write the equation of the altitude from B for A(-7,-5) B(-5,5), C(2, 1).

Answers

Answer:

  y -5 = -3/2(x +5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude from B is perpendicular to segment AC. The slope of segment AC is ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (1 -(-5))/(2 -(-7)) = 6/9 = 2/3

The slope of the altitude line will be the opposite reciprocal of this, so is ...

  -1/m = -1/(2/3) = -3/2

The point-slope form of the equation of a line is ...

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

  y -5 = -3/2(x +5) . . . . . line with slope -3/2 through B(-5, 5)

Additional comment

The equation can be put in other forms, as you may wish. Solving for y gives the slope-intercept form.

Answers

Answer:

y = 6x - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Desmos guess and check :)

Answer:

y = 6x - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 6 , then

y = 6x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (2, - 1 ) into the partial equation

- 1 = 12 + c ⇒ c = - 1 - 12 = - 13

y = 6x - 13 ← equation of line

-3x = -9

Answers

Answer:

x = 3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x = -9

You have to do the inverse operation to solve a linear equation. In this case, the operation is multiplication (-3x) and the inverse would be division.

Thus, we would divide both sides by the coefficient (-3)

-3x/-3  =  -9/-3

Thus, we isolate the variable x, and the result is

x = 3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Check:

To check our answer, all we have to do is substitute the value of x.

So, we would substitute the equation as

-3(3) = 9

-3 multiplied by 3 is -9, so our answer is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]f(x)=2x^2-9x+2\\g(x)=1-6x\\h(x)=x^2-4[/tex]

Looks like g(x) is irrelevant here.

You can expand this like so:

[tex](h+f)(x)\\h(x)+f(x)[/tex]

And even further:

[tex](x^2-4)+(2x^2-9x+2)[/tex]

Now, it's just a matter of simplifying.

[tex]x^2-4+2x^2-9x+2\\\\(x^2+2x^2)+(-9x)+(-4+2)\\\\3x^2-9x-2[/tex]

Therefore:

Answers

Answer:

Hello! Your answer here is 10−5.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert 0.00001 to a power of 10, we use scientific notation. Scientific notation is a way of expressing numbers that are too large or too small to be conveniently written in decimal form.

In this problem, the given decimal number is 0.00001. We must move the decimal 5 places to the right, which gives us 1.0.

Then, we multiply 1.0 by 10 raised to the negative of the number of places we have moved the decimal point - so we multiply 1.0 by 10−5, which gives us our answer:
