Answer:

  a. see the attachment for the table (also reproduced below)

  b. slope = -3; see the attachment for a graph

Step-by-step explanation:

A table of values for the function can be filled a couple of ways. One way is to draw the graph of the equation, and read the point values from it. Another way is to solve for each of the variables, and use those equations to find the missing table values.

__

<h3>a.</h3>

Solving the equation for y, we get ...

  3x +y = 15

  y = -3x +15 . . . . . . subtract 3x; this is "point-slope form"

For the purpose of evaluating for different values of x, we can rearrange this a bit to ...

  y = 3(5 -x) . . . . factor out 3

The given table has x-values of 0, 2, 3, 6. The corresponding y-values are ...

  y = 3(5 -{0, 2, 3, 6}) = 3{5, 3, 2, -1} = {15, 9, 6, -3} . . . . for x={0, 2, 3, 6}

Solving the equation for x, we get ...

  y/3 = 5 -x . . . . . divide the above equation by 3

  x = 5 -(y/3) . . . . . add x-(y/3)

For y-values {0, 3, 8}, the corresponding x-values are ...

  x = 5 -{0, 3, 8}/3 = 5 -{0, 1, 8/3} = {5, 4, 7/3} . . . . for y={0, 3, 8}

Then our table of values is ...

  \begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|}\cline{1-8}x&2&4&6&0&3&5&7/3\\y&9&3&-3&15&6&0&8\\\cline{1-8}\end{array}

__

<h3>b.</h3>

The points in the above table can be plotted, and the line drawn through them. Sometimes using the points that are farthest apart makes this easier: (0, 15) and (6, -3).

slope

When we solved for y, we had the equation in <em>slope-intercept form</em>. The slope is the x-coefficient in that equation:

  y = -3x +15   ⇒   slope = -3

A(n)=3/2(-2)^(n-1). What is the 3rd term in the sequence?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute n for 3

A(n) = 3/2(-2)^(n-1)

A(3) = 3/2(-2)^(3-1)

A(3) = 3/2(-2)²

A(3) = 3/2(4)

A(3) = 12/2

A(3) = 6

Answer:

Lead-the-market pay strategies. An employer may choose to establish an internal compensation strategy that is in excess of the pay rates in the prevailing marketplace. This compensation strategy may increase the supply of candidates, increase selection rates of qualified applicants, decrease employee turnover, increase morale and productivity, or prevent unionization efforts. However, prior to implementing a lead compensation strategy, an organization should carefully consider what benefits it expects to realize from such a strategy, keeping in mind that this type of structure has the greatest propensity of increasing overall labor costs.

A car is driving at a speed of 40 mi/h. What is the speed of the car in feet per minute? a. 2,400 ft/min b. 211,200 ft/min c. 3,
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

  3520 ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

40 mi/h = (40 mi/h)×(5280 ft/mi)×(1 h)/(60 min) = 3520 ft/min

_____

Each conversion factor has a value of 1 (numerator = denominator), so changes the units without changing the speed.
