Answer:
The y-intercept is 4
Step-by-step explanation:
You find the y-intercept by finding where x is zero. In the table, when x=0 the y=4. The y-intercept is 4. The graph of the function crosses the x-axis at the point (0,4).
Find rates of change until you find a constant.
dy/dx=1,2,3,4,5,6
d2y/dx2=1,1,1,1,1
So the acceleration, d2y/d2x, is constant. This means that this is a quadratic sequence of the form a(n)=an^2+bn+c. So we can set up a system of equations to solve for the values of a,b, and c. Using the first three points, (1,1), (2,2), and (3,4) we have:
9a+3b+c=4, 4a+2b+c=2, and a+b+c=1 getting the differences...
5a+b=2 and 3a+b=1 and getting this difference...
2a=1, so a=1/2 making 5a+b=2 become:
2.5+b=2, so b=-1/2, making a+b+c=1 become:
1/2-1/2+c=1, so c=1 so the rule is:
a(n)=0.5x^2-0.5x+1 or if you prefer to not have decimals
a(n)=(x^2-x+2)/2
Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
because it asks for up to 30
pls brainliest
(5/8)+(2/5)=
so you need a common den so in this case its 40
so we multiply to get 40 like
(5/5)(5/8)+ (2/5)(8/8)=
25/40 + 16/ 40 = 41/40
Answer:
2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
First by looking, you have a slope going upward to the right so it is a positive slope.
Two points on the line that seem to go directly through the grid at the intersection points are ( -60, -90) and ( 40, -50).
Slope is Rise (y axis) over the Run (x axis). The numbers above have x first and y second.
So the rise is the total distance between -90 and -50 which is 40.
The run is the total distance between 40 and -60 which is a total of 100.
It takes 40 units to get back to the 0 mark on the x axis and the another 60 units to get to the -60 point.
So you slop is 40/100. You can simplify this down to 4/10 or even further to give you 2/5.
