4x+10=-26
Subtract 10 to both sides:
4x=-36
Divide 4 to both sides:
x=-9
The function is:
(9x^2 - 36)
f(x) = ---------------------
3x + 6
You can simplify that function to a linear function for all x for which 3x + 6 ≠ 0
=> x ≠ - 2.
So, for x ≠ - 2, you can do:
(9x^2 - 36)
f(x) = --------------------- =
3x + 6
9(x^2 - 4)
f(x) = ---------------------
3(x + 2)
3(x + 2)(x - 2)
f(x) = --------------------- = 3(x - 2) = 3x - 6
(x + 2)
So, the graph is a right line that intercepts the y-axis at - 6 and the x-axis at x = 2, excluding x = -2 as the function is not defined for x = -2. That is the second graph of the second picture.
Answer:
8 baskets worth 3 points each and 4 baskets worth 2 points each
Step-by-step explanation:
It is 8 baskets worth 3 points each and 4 baskets worth 2 points each because it says Juarez scored twice as many baskets worth 3 points than the baskets worth 2 points. 4 x 2 = 8
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
6 baskets worth 3 points each and 7 baskets worth 2 points each
: wrong because 7 x 2 = 14.
10 baskets worth 3 points each and 1 basket worth 2 points
: wrong because 1 x 2 = 2.
4 baskets worth 3 points each and 10 baskets worth 2 points each: wrong because 10 x 2 = 40.
Since the coefficients of d are not equal, then there can only be one solution
It is the answer number 2
