Answer:
there's no graphed pictured. but slope is rise/ run so just count the boxes between the points on the line. Up and down is the numerator and sideways is the denominator. If its decreasing from left to right it's negative, and if it's increasing left to right then it's positive
Answer:
k ≈ 1.88
Step-by-step explanation:
In order for the function to be continuous, the pieces of the function must have the same value at x=3. That is ...
f(3) = 3(3) +k = k(3^2) -6
15 = 8k . . . . . add 6-k, simplify
k = 15/8 = 1.875 ≈ 1.88
To two decimal places, the value of k that makes f(x) continuous at x=3 is 1.88.
