Answer 2

@jim_thompson5910 please help with a few of these...ik ur super decent at these types of maths.

Answer 3

what's the given function?

Answer 4

oh it's given as a table?

Answer 5

yes

Answer 6

x
0
1
2

Answer 7

with y as

Answer 8

2
-1
-6

Answer 9

thanks

Answer 10

when x = 0, what is the value of y?

Answer 11

says it 2

Answer 12

@jim_thompson5910

Answer 13

so (0,2) is one point on the graph

Answer 14

when x = 2, what is the value of y?

Answer 15

its -6

Answer 16

there is no graph.. its a drawn out imaginative graph i guess.

Answer 17

uhm u sleep? lol

Answer 18

you would use the table

Answer 19

look where x = 2. Then look directly across

Answer 20

i said it was -6 ...

Answer 21

ok so we have (0,2) and (2,-6)

Find the slope of the line through those points

Answer 22

draw it?

Answer 23

Slope Formula
\[\Large m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\]

Answer 24

(x1,y1) = (0,2)
(x2,y2) = (2,-6)

Answer 25

\[\Large m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\]
\[\Large m = \frac{-6-2}{2-0}\]
\[\Large m = ???\]

Answer 26

3?

Answer 27

oh wait... -4

Answer 28

-4 yes

Answer 29

\[\Large m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\]
\[\Large m = \frac{-6-2}{2-0}\]
\[\Large m = \frac{-8}{2}\]
\[\Large m = -4\]

Answer 30

ok great thanks

Answer 31

no problem
