g(x) = 8x − 4

Which equation defines function h?

A.
h(x) = -40x + 36
B.
h(x) = -40x2 − 52x + 36
C.
h(x) = -40x2 + 36
D.
h(x) = -40x2 − 13x + 36

Answers

Answer 1

The value of h(x) = -40x2 – 52x + 18. Option (b) is correct.

An expression, rule, or law that defines a relationship between one variable (the independent variable) and another variable is defined as a function.

Given functions

f(x) = -5x − 9

g(x) = 8x − 4

we have to determine which equation defines function h

f(x) = -5x − 9

g(x) = 8x – 4

(f x g) (x) = (-5x –9)(8x – 4)

(f x g) (x) = -40x2 + 20x – 72x + 36

(f x g) (x) = -40x2 – 52x + 18

Therefore the value of  h(x) = -40x2 – 52x + 18. Option (b) is correct.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the given equation. the ordered pair (2, - 2) y = -x - 2.

Answers

The equation of the parallel line is y = -x

How to determine the line equation?

The equation is given as

y = -x - 2

The point is also given as

point = (2, -2)

The equation of a line can be represented as

y = mx + c

Where

slope = m

By comparing the equations, we have:

m = -1

This means that the slope of  y = -x - 2 is -1

The slopes of parallel lines are equal

This means that the slope of the other line is -1

The equation of the parallel line is then calculated as

y = m(x - x₁) +y₁

Where

m = -1

(x₁, y₁) = (2, -2)

So, we have

y = -1(x - 2) - 2

Open the brackets and evaluate

y = -x

Hence, the parallel line has an equation of y = -x

Answers

The quadrilateral with vertices (0,0), (5,0), (8,4), and (3,4) is a rhombus.

What is a rhombus?

A quadrilateral with all equal sides is a rhombus. Rhombuses are a particular kind of parallelogram in which all of the sides are equal since the opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal.

What is a distance formula?

D = √(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

Here, we have

Given vertices A(0,0), B(5,0), C(8,4), and D(3,4)

By applying the distance formula, we get

AB = (5 - 0)² + (0 - 0)²  = 5

BC = (8 - 5)² + (4 - 0)²  = 5

CD = (3 - 8)² + (4 - 4)²  = 5

Slope intercept form presents the graph of a straight line and is represented in the form of

where

y = y coordinate

m = slope

x = x coordinate

b = y intercept

Given,

Here we have the  table shows the amount of storage y (in gigabytes) on a music-playing device when there are x songs on the device

Now, we have to find the following:

a) Equation of the table

b) Slope and intercept.

In order to find the equation, we have to identify the slope an intercept of the table.

So, to find that we have to take two points from the table.

Then the selected points are

(0, 16), (242, 14.8)

By using these point we have to calculate the slope as,

m = (14.8 - 16) / (242 - 0)

m = -1.2/242

m = -0.005

Now, the intercept is calculated by using the point (0, 16) and the slope -0.005, then we get,

16 = -0.005(0) + c

c = 16

Therefore, the equation is y = -0.005x + 16.

Answers

The equation of a circle with center (-3, -5) and radius 4 is (x+3)^2+(y+5)^2=16.

In the given equation we have to find the equation of circle with center and radius.

The given center is (-3, -5).

Radius = 4

The standard equation of a circle with center and radius.

(x−a)^2+(y−b)^2=r^2

where a and b represent a point of center and r represent a radius.

So a=-3, b=-5 and r=4.

Putting the value in the standard equation.

(x−(-3))^2+(y−(-5))^2=(4)^2

Simplifying

(x+3)^2+(y+5)^2=16

The value of p and q in the equation are -10 and 21 respectively.

How to solve system of equation?

The value of p and q will be found in the equation before we can form another equation with p and q.

2p+ q = 1

using elimination method

p = 1 - 11

p = -10

q = 11 + 10

The length of the ramp is [tex]\sqrt{410}[/tex] inches.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

A ramp is elevated to a height of 7 inches from the base. The horizontal distance between the lower end of the ramp and the base is 19 inches.

So, it will be a right-angled triangle.

Now, we can use Pythagoras theorem to find the length of the ramp which is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

Let's denote the length of the ramp to be l, elevated height to be p and horizontal distance to be b.
