Question 9 - Score Point 0

Answer for Score Point 0 This question has four parts. A line and a parabola are graphed on a coordinate plane. The equation of the line and the equation of the parabola are shown in this table. This table has two columns labeled Graph and Equation. The first row is Line, y equals negative three x plus five; the second row is Parabola, y equals negative x squared plus two x plus one. Part A What is the value of y for the line when x equals negative four? Show or explain how you got your answer. Enter your answer and your work or explanation in the space provided. y equals negative three open parenthesis four close parenthesis plus five y equals negative twelve plus five y equals negative seven Part B What is the value of y for the parabola when x equals negative four? Show or explain how you got your answer. Enter your answer and your work or explanation in the space provided. y equals four squared plus two open parenthesis negative four close parenthesis plus one y equals sixteen minus eight plus one y equals nine Part C The line and the parabola intersect at two points. The distance, in units, between the two points is represented by this expression. the square root of open parenthesis four minus one closed parenthesis squared plus open parenthesis negative seven minus two close parenthesis squared Simplify the expression to determine the distance, in units, between the two points. Show or explain how you got your answer. Enter your answer and your work or explanation in the space provided. the square root of open parenthesis four minus one close parenthesis squared plus open parenthesis negative seven minus two close parenthesis squared the square root of open parenthesis three close parenthesis squared plus open parenthesis negative nine close parenthesis squared the square root of three squared minus nine squared the square root of nine minus eighty-one the square root of seventy-two units equals simplified distance between the two points Part D The area, in square units, of the region on the coordinate plane enclosed by the parabola and the line is represented by this expression. negative four cubed over three plus five times four squared over two minus four times four minus open parenthesis negative one cubed over three plus five times one squared over two minus four times one close parenthesis Simplify the expression to determine the area, in square units, of the enclosed region. Show or explain how you got your answer. Enter your answer and your work or explanation in the space provided. Six point eight four units squared equals simplified of enclosed region first I solved in the parantheses and then used all the exponents that were given, then coverted each fraction into a decimal, then combined all the terms togther to get my answer
