PLS HELP IM STUCK PLS

Mathematics
1 answer:
ValentinkaMS [17]2 years ago

The slope of the linear function described in this problem is:

m = -3.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

In this problem, the line goes through points (5,3) and (8,-6). Considering that the slope is given by <u>change in y divided by change in x</u>, for this function, it is given by:

m = (-6 - 3)/(8 - 5) = -9/3 = -3

The slope of the linear function described in this problem is:

m = -3.

Solve this linear system by graphing <br> x-y=6 <br> 2x=12+2y
lys-0071 [83]
You need to isolate the variables. For the first equation add x to both sides, which leaves you with y.

For the second equation, divide each side by 2 leaving you with
x= 6+y. Subtract y from each side. Subtract x from both sides. Now you have y= x + 6.

Now graph those equations.

Someone help me please!

Answer:

To solve the first inequality, you need to subtract 6 from both sides of the inequality, to obtain 4n≤12. This can then be cancelled down to n≤3 by dividing both sides by 4. To solve the second inequality, we first need to eliminate the fraction by multiplying both sides of the inequality by the denominator, obtaining 5n>n^2+4. Since this inequality involves a quadratic expression, we need to convert it into the form of an^2+bn+c<0 before attempting to solve it. In this case, we subtract 5n from both sides of the inequality to obtain n^2-5n+4<0. The next step is to factorise this inequality. To factorise we must find two numbers that can be added to obtain -5 and that can be multiplied to obtain 4. Quick mental mathematics will tell you that these two numbers are -4 and -1 (for inequalities that are more difficult to factorise mentally, you can just use the quadratic equation that can be found in your data booklet) so we can write the inequality as (n-4)(n-1)<0. For inequalities where the co-efficient of n^2 is positive and the the inequality is <0, the range of n must be between the two values of n whereby the factorised expresion equals zero, which are n=1 and n=4. Therefore, the solution is 1<n<4 and we can check this by substituting in n=3, which satisfies the inequality since (3-4)(3-1)=-2<0. Since n is an integer, the expressions n≤3 and n<4 are the same. Therefore, we can write the final answer as either 1<n<4, or n>1 and n≤3.
