"T<u>he function is decreasing":</u>
This means the slope of the function will be negative at the given point. Anywhere the line is going down, from left to right, is decreasing. This eliminates choices A and C.
<u>"The function is concave down":</u>
This means the curve of the function will be open down (think of an upside down u). This eliminates choice E.
<u>"f(x)>0":</u>
This is anywhere the curve is above the x axis. This eliminates choice D.
The answer is Choice B) x=2.
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
1. x = -1.5y
2. 5 (2x-3)
3. p = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Simplifying
7x + 2y + -3x + 4y = 0
Reorder the terms:
7x + -3x + 2y + 4y = 0
Combine like terms: 7x + -3x = 4x
4x + 2y + 4y = 0
Combine like terms: 2y + 4y = 6y
4x + 6y = 0
Solving
4x + 6y = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-6y' to each side of the equation.
4x + 6y + -6y = 0 + -6y
Combine like terms: 6y + -6y = 0
4x + 0 = 0 + -6y
4x = 0 + -6y
Remove the zero:
4x = -6y
Divide each side by '4'.
x = -1.5y
Simplifying
x = -1.5y
2)
Common factor
10x - 15
5 (2x-3)
3) Simplifying
5p = 3p + 8
Reorder the terms:
5p = 8 + 3p
Solving
5p = 8 + 3p
Solving for variable 'p'.
Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3p' to each side of the equation.
5p + -3p = 8 + 3p + -3p
Combine like terms: 5p + -3p = 2p
2p = 8 + 3p + -3p
Combine like terms: 3p + -3p = 0
2p = 8 + 0
2p = 8
Divide each side by '2'.
p = 4
Simplifying
p = 4
We are asked in this problem to determine the simplified expression of the statement given. The rules that apply in exponential functions is that when an exponential term is raised to the power of an integer, the simplified term has a degree that is equal to the product of the integers involved. The operations involved should be applicable to terms with the same base number only. In this problem, we thus write:
2^3/4 / 2^1/2 = 2^3/4 * 2^-1/2 = = 2^(3/4 - 1/2) = 2^ 1/4. hence the answer is 2^0.25 or simply equal to 1.1892 determined using a calculator.

4 and a half hour repairs 6% of the entire boat so it is
4 1/2 multiplied by 6/100's inverse number
5p + 30 = 12p <== ur equation
5p - 12p = -30
-7p = -30
p = -30/-7
p = 4 2/7 pies to break even
