Answer:
- a) 3
- b) 6
- c) 9
- d) the outputs are 3 times as far apart as the inputs
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) "x" in considered to be the input to the function f(x). The variable(s) in parentheses as part of the function name are the inputs. The function value itself is the output.
That is, for an input (x-value) of 0, the output (f(0)) is 5. For an input of 1, the output (f(1)) is 8. These input values (0 and 1) are 1 unit apart: 1 - 0 = 1. The corresponding output values are 3 units apart: 8 - 5 = 3.
(b) Inputs -1 and 1 are 2 units apart (1-(-1)=2). The corresponding output values, 2 and 8, are 6 units apart. (8-2=6)
(c) Inputs 0 and 3 are 3 units apart. The corresponding output values, 5 and 14, are 9 units apart.
(d) The ratio of output differences to input differences can be seen to be ...
... 3/1 = 6/2 = 9/3 = 3
Output differences are 3 times input differences.

<em>Comment on the problem</em>
These ratios are constant everywhere, so the function is considered to be "linear." The ratio is the "slope" of the line you see when the function is graphed.
Answer: Point C
Step by step: P is 3 spaces away from 0 and C is 3 spaces away from 0. Opposite of each other.
-3 1/3,
think about it as money. would you rather owe someone 3 dollars, or 1 dollar.
Also, -4/5 is closer to zero, so you know its more than -3, that's farther away (number line)
In conclusion, -3 1/3 is less.
Answer: the answer is d
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2x^2+8x-12=0
with form
ax^2+bx+c=0
move c to the other side
2x^2+8x=12
x^2 is multiplied -> divide equation by 2
x^2+4x=6
complete square:
divide b=4 by 2
4*1/2=2
square 2
2^2=4
add 4 to both sides
x^2+4x=6
x^2+4x+4=6+4
x^2+4x+4=10
transform to polynom
(x+2)^2=10
this left side is option B multiplied by a factor of 16 and therefore equal:
(4x + 8)^2
(4*4)x^2+(4*2*8)x+8*8
16x^2+64x+64
x^2+4+4
bonus: calculate root
x+2=+/-sqrt(10)
x=-2+/-sqrt(10)
<h2 /><h2>so it is option B</h2>
- <em>2x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0..divide by 2</em>
- <em>x^2 + 4x - 6 = 0</em>
- <em>x^2 + 4x = 6...add 4 to both sides of the equation</em>
- <em>x^2 + 4x + 4 = 6 + 4</em>
- <em>(x + 2)^2 = 10....<== ur constant is 10</em>
- <em>x + 2 = (+-)sqrt 10</em>
- <em>x = -2 (+ - ) sqrt 10</em>
- <em></em>
- <em>x = -2 + sqrt 10</em>
- <em>x = -2 - sqrt 10</em>
