Which is true regarding the graphed function f(x)?

5x + 3y = - 4

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in standard form is

ax + by = c ( a is a positive integer and b, c are integers )

express the line first of all in slope- intercept form

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

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 8)

m = = -

y = - x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (4, - 8 ), then

- 8 = - + c ⇒ c = -

y = - x - ← in slope-intercept form

multiply all terms by 3 to eliminate the fractions

3y = - 5x - 4 ( add 5x to both sides )

5x + 3y = - 4 ← in standard form

answer: the resulting cross section is a rectangle. solution: a plane parallel to the base of a triangular prism will intersect a cross section that is the same shape as its bases. so the cross section is a triangle.

\3. yes the presentation (i.e. odd numbers being written as differences of two squares) is possible for all odd natural number however the presentation may not be unique. for example,  57=112−82=292−28257=112−82=292−282.

\4. 2 can't be written as a difference of two squares because 4-1=3 and 1-1=0 and the difference of squares grows to integers larger that 3.

can i get some in proving questions 1 and 2?
