The 5 represents the starting distance from home. In other words, when t = 0, the value of y is y = 5. Replacing t with 0 leads to this y value. This is the y intercept. So at time 0 minutes, the ant is 5 units from home. Replace "units" with whatever units you happen to be using.

Which of the following is a non-linear equation?

Answer:

iv ; xy + x/y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A non linear equation is one in which there is no product of two different variables or the same variable

What this mean is that we have the highest polynomial power as 1 or we simply have polynomials of degree 1

Looking at the given options, we can see the product xy

What this mean is that the polynomial is of degree 2 and that makes the equation a non linear as we have a polynomial of more than 1 degree

Did you mean

Evaluate 3/2 + (-k) + (-2) where k = -5/2

= 3/2 - (-5/2) - 2

= 3/2 + 5/2 - 2

= 8/2 - 2

= 4 - 2

Given the function f(x) = 3x + 1 what is f(-2)?
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(-2) means that -2 is going to be our input in this function.

To solve this, simply substitute -2 for x in the expression given.

If f(x) = 3x+1, then f(-2) = 3(-2) + 1

3(-2)+1 = -6+1 = -5

Hope this helped!

Answer:

86+18\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the properties of 45-45-90 triangles to get a side length of 18 for the 2 legs of the isosceles triangle. Then add 43+18, which is the shorter length of the rectangle, +25, which is the longer edge, +18\sqrt{2}. The answer is now 86+18\sqrt{2}.
