Answer:

The slope of the line representing the linear function f(x) is determined as $-\frac{1}{2}$. The function f(x) is decreasing because the slope is less than zero, i.e., m<0.

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function f(x) is given with two points, (2,3) and (0,4) lying on the line representing f(x).

It is asked to determine the slope of the line and state if the function is increasing or decreasing. of the value of the slope obtained.

Step 1 of 1

Determine the slope of the line.

The points as given in the question are (2,3) and (0,4). Now, the formula for the slope is given as

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

So, substitute $4 \& 3$ for $y_{2}$ and $y_{1}$ respectively, and $0 \& 2$ for $x_{2}$ and $x_{1}$ respectively in the above formula. Then simplify to get the slope as follows,$m=\frac{4-3}{0-2}$\\ $m=\frac{1}{-2}$\\ $m=-\frac{1}{2}$

The slope of the line is obtained as $-\frac{1}{2}$. Now, as $-\frac{1}{2} < 0$, so the function f(x) is decreasing.

What is 75-50, then you subtract that answer from 180, because if it’s a triangle, all 3 sides should equal to 180

1. Over a period of 6 years (from 1980 to 1986) the house gained a value of 12000 dollars (109k-97k). 12000/6 gives you a rate of 2000 dollars per year. Because the initial price at t=0 is 97000, the function is 97000+2000t
