Answer: No this is not a linear function as the y values have different first differences.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we look at the x values. We start off and look at the second x value and subtract the first x value from it (That would be 1-0) and that equals to 1. Then we look at the third x value and subtract the second x value from it (2-1) and that equals to 1. Then we look at the fourth x value and subtract the third x value from it (That would be 3-2) and that is 1. Next we look at the fifth x value and subtract the fourth x value from it (That would be 4-3) and that is 1.

Now we look at the y values and do the same thing as with the x values. We start off and look at the second y value and subtract the first y value from it (That would be 1-0) and that equals to 1. Then we look at the third y value and subtract the second y value from it (4-1) and that equals to 3. Then we look at the fourth y value and subtract the third y value from it (That would be 9-4) and that is 5. Next we look at the fifth y value and subtract the fourth y value from it (That would be 16-9) and that is 7.

Even though the x values all have the same first differences, the y values do not and so this cannot be a linear function.

I hope this helps. Tell me if something doesn't make sense.

Answer:

No, it is a quadratic relation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Work out the first differences between the given y-values:

0 \underset{+1}{\longrightarrow} 1 \underset{+3}{\longrightarrow} 4 \underset{+5}{\longrightarrow} 9 \underset{+7}{\longrightarrow} 16

As the first differences are <u>not the same</u>, this is <em>not </em>a <u>linear relation</u>.

Work out the second differences:

1 \underset{+2}{\longrightarrow} 3\underset{+2}{\longrightarrow}5\underset{+2}{\longrightarrow}7

As the second differences are the same, the relation is quadratic and will contain an x² term. The coefficient of x² is always half of the second difference.  As the second difference is 2, the coefficient of x² is one.

\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|}\cline{1-6}x & 0 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4\\\cline{1-6}x^2 & 0 & 1 & 4 & 9 & 16\\\cline{1-6}\end{array}

Comparing x² with the given y-values, we can see that no further operation is needed.  Therefore, the relation is quadratic and the equation is y=x^2.

Fraction 3 over 4x = Fraction 1 over 5. x = ___?
umka21 [38]

Answer:

\large\boxed{x=3\dfrac{3}{4}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{3}{4x}=\dfrac{1}{5}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\(4x)(1)=(3)(5)\\\\4x=15\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\x=\dfrac{15}{4}\\\\x=3\dfrac{3}{4}

My mom walks 1 mile in 14<br> minutes. If she walked for 56<br> minutes, how far did she walk?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

4 miles

Step-by-step explanation

If your mom can walk 1 mile in 14 minutes then 2 miles would take her 28 minutes 3 miles would take her 42 minutes and finally if she walked 4 miles it would take her 56 minutes.

14 + 14 + 14 + 14 = 56

14 x 4 = 56

Dominic runs a farm stand that sells peaches and grapes. Yesterday Dominic sold 34 pounds of peaches and 45 pounds of grapes for
scoray [572]

Answer:

34x + 45y = 192.25

47x + 16y = 208

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x stand for peaches.

Let y stand for grapes.

Since we know that yesterday he sold 35 pounds of peaches ( x ) and 45 pounds of grapes ( y ) for $192.25, we can create an equation to represent this using two variables; peaches and grapes.

We can do the same thing with the amount of peaches and grapes he sold today. Once we make this equation, we will have two equations to make the system of equations to solve for x and y.
