Answer:
y - 1 = -3(x - 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
As we move from the point (2, 1) to the point (5, -8), x (the run) increases by 3 and y (the rise) decreases by 9. Thus, the slope of this line is
m = rise / run = -9/3, or m = -3.
Then the equation of the line (in point-slope form) is
y - 1 = -3(x - 2)
HOW TO SOLVE:
1) use x as a variable
2) the starting equation is:
4x + 3x + 5x = 18
3) add all the like terms on the left side of the equation:
12x = 18
4) Divide by 12 on both sides:
x=1.5
5) Find the lengths of the sides:
- 4x = 4(1.5) = 6
- 3x = 3(1.5) = 4.5
- 5x = 5(1.5) = 7.5
SO, the lengths of the sides of this triangle are: 6, 4.5, and 7.5
You need to work backwards
if it is no more than 9 units away from 8
thus x must be 8-9<x<8+9 solving -1<x<17
so the answer is 4.
25m/90minutes = .278 mile/minute
Divide 25/90 to get .278
Hope that helps
<h3>Answers:</h3>
- (a) The function is increasing on the interval (0, infinity)
- (b) The function is decreasing on the interval (-infinity, 0)
=======================================================
Explanation:
You should find that the derivative is entirely negative whenever x < 0. This suggests that the function f(x) is decreasing on this interval. So that takes care of part (b).
The interval x < 0 is the same as -infinity < x < 0 which then translates to the interval notation (-infinity, 0)
Similarly, you should find that the derivative is positive when x > 0. So the function is increasing on the interval (0, infinity)
