70 points Part A: Explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of the equations y = 2−x and y = 8x+4 intersect are the solutions of the equation 2−x = 8x+4. (4 points)

Part B: Make tables to find the solution to 2−x = 8x+4. Take the integer values of x between −3 and 3. (4 points)

Part C: How can you solve the equation 2−x = 8x+4 graphically? (2 points)

Step-by-step explanation:

area of part 1:

a1=base*height/2=(8+2)*(8-2-2-1)/2=10*3/2=15 ft^2

area of part 2:

a2=length*width=(8+2)*1=10 ft2

area of part 3:

a3=length*width=8*2=16 ft2

total shaded area : a1+a2+a3=41 ft2

total area of the reactangle : a=16*8=128 ft2

total area of the nonshaded region : 128-41=87 ft2

step-by-step explanation:

let

we know that

the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point when the value of x is equal to zero

so

the y-coordinate of the point a is the y-intercept

the answer part a) is

the value of y-intercept is

part b) find the slope m

we know that

the value of the slope is equal to

substitute the values

therefore

the answer part b) is

the value of the slope is equal to

the general answer is

the slope is

the value of y-intercept is
