So which is equivilentpemdas
(8-6x+12)(20-6x)multiply/distribute1/4(20-6x)5-6/4x=5-3/2x=-3/2x+5
the answer is D
so mean is equivilent to average
per minute means x feet for every one minute=xfeet/1miin=x/1
so just divide -378/7=-54
mean change in altitude-54 feet per minute
Answer choice A is incorrect as it is missing the variable 'x' in it.
Let's test answer choice B.
y = mx + b
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
m = 2/3
b = -5
y = (2/3)x - 5
B is one of the answers.
Let's test answer choice C.
6y = 4x -30
y = (4/6)x - 30/6
y = (2/3)x - 5
Answer choice C is also correct.
Let's test answer choice D now.
y = (2/3)x - 5
Plug in (3,-3)
-3 = (2/3)(3) - 5
-3 = 2 - 5
-3 = -3
This is correct, so therefore D is also one of the answers.
Your answer is B, C and D.
I suppose that the question is 17.5 %.
To increase an amount by a percentage, the multiplier is given by (100 + %)/100
Therefore, to increase an amount by 17.5%,
the single multiplier is given by (100 + 17.5)/100 = 117.5/100 = 1.175
The range of the piecewise function would be from [2,infinity), or the second choice.
