<span>You have four unknowns: a, b, c and d and therefore you will need 4 equations to solve for them. 
</span>You are already given two points ON the curve: (-2, 12) and (2,6). Plug the numbers into the function and you have two equations. Then, ...
<span>To find the slope, take the derivative of the function. "Horizontal tangent" means the slope at those points are zero.
</span><span>Plug the x values of -2 and 2 and set the corresponding y' to zero and you will have two more equations. Solve the 4 simultaneous equations to find a, b, c and d.</span>

Why do you need to read the entire text before you determine the theme
Nimfa-mama [501]
It seems a bit frustrating, but the message could change in the small details or chapters you don't read. To completely analyze the story for theme, you should make sure you've read every part. That or your teachers don't want you slacking.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

You can just move upper y equation and it will be:

6x+3(3x-5)=15

6x+9x-15=15

15x-15=15

15x=30

x=2

Which relation is a function?
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph certainly is, if you ignore the fact that you don't know what the equation for the graph is.

Each x has only 1 y associated with it. That's the definition of a function. This one presumably follows that definition, but I caughten you, without the equation, you can't be sure.
