Answer:
Real values of x where x < -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Above the x-axis, the function is positive.
The function is decreasing when the gradient is negative.
The function has a positive

coefficient, therefore the vertex is a local minimum;
This means the gradients are negative before the vertex and positive after it;
To meet the conditions therefore, the function must be before the vertex and above the x-axis;
This will be anywhere before the x-intercept at x = -1;
Hence it is when x < -1.
Answer:
630 milliliters.
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement tells us that the final product is 14 jars of honey peanut butter and that in each jar use 45 mliliters of honey. This means that to know the total honey to be used, the required quantity for each jar must be multiplied by the total number of jars, that is:
14 * 45 = 630
Which means that he would spend a total of 630 milliliters.
Answer:
y = (7/2)x -20
Step-by-step explanation:
The given line is in slope-intercept form, so you can read its slope from the equation.
y = mx + b . . . . . m is the slope; b is the y-intercept
y = -(2/7)x + 9 . . . . . . has slope -2/7
The perpendicular line will have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of this, so will be ...
m = -1/(-2/7) = 7/2
We can use this and the given point to write the equation in point-slope form.
y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)
We have m = 7/2, (h, k) = (4, -6) so the equation is ...
y = (7/2)(x -4) -6
y = (7/2)x -20
Answer:
The letter "x" is often used in algebra to mean a value that is not yet known. It is called a "variable" or sometimes an "unknown". In x + 2 = 7, x is a variable, but we can work out its value if we try! A variable doesn't have to be "x", it could be "y", "w" or any letter, name or symbol. See: Variable.
Step-by-step explanation:
Work out the number of hours in 1 year:-
1 year = 365*24 = 8760
So the number dying each hour = 31,000 / 8760 = 3.54
