Answer:

y=4/5x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

When making linear equations for graphs we need to fill in the model of y=mx+b. M gets filled in with the slope of line and in this case it's 4/5. X is our unknown variable that we could substitute for. B is our y-intercept which is 1 since that is where the line first touches the y-axis. Together it makes y=4/5x+1.

A circle is centered at the point -3 2 and passes through the point 1 and 5 the radius of the circle is blank units

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

The radius of the circle is 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question,

centered point = (-3 , 2)

a point in the circle = (1,5)

To find the radius of circle we will use the circle equation

(x – h)² + (y – k)² = r²,

with the centre being at the point (h, k) and the radius being r.

Plug values in the equation

(1 – (-3))² + (5 – 2)² = r²

(1+3)² + (3)² = r²

4² + 3² = r²

25 = r²

r = √25

r = 5

Which sequence could be partially defined by the recursive formula f (n + 1) = f(n) + 2.5 for n ≥ 1?

horrorfan [7]

Option C: –10, –7.5, –5, –2.5, … is the sequence that could be partially defined by the recursive formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$

Explanation:

The given recursive formula is $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ for $n\geq 1$ and $f(1)=-10$

We need to determine the sequence.

The sequence can be determined by substituting n = 1, 2, 3, 4,....

2nd term of the sequence:

Substituting n = 1 in the formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ , we get,

$f(1+1)=f(1)+2.5$

Simplifying, we have,

$f(2)=-10+2.5=-7.5$

Thus, the 2nd term of the sequence is -7.5

3rd term of the sequence:

Substituting n = 2 in the formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ , we get,

$f(2+1)=f(2)+2.5$

Simplifying, we have,

$f(3)=-7.5+2.5=-5$

Thus, the 3rd term of the sequence is -5

4th term of the sequence:

Substituting n = 3 in the formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ , we get,

$f(3+1)=f(3)+2.5$

Simplifying, we have,

$f(4)=-5+2.5=-2.5$

Thus, the 4th term of the sequence is -2.5

Therefore, the sequence is –10, –7.5, –5, –2.5, …

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.

A quadratic function has a line of symmetry at x = –3.5 and a zero at –9. What is the distance from the given zero to the line o

kap26 [50]

Given:

A quadratic function has a line of symmetry at x = –3.5 and a zero at –9.

To find:

The other zero.

Solution:

We know that, the line of symmetry divides the graph of quadratic function in two congruent parts. So, both zeroes are equidistant from the line of symmetry.

It means, line of symmetry passes through the mid point of both zeroes.

Let the other zero be x.

$-3.5=\dfrac{(-9)+x}{2}$
