Question A:

Rewriting the table for f(x):

x      -1       0      1
f(x)   -7      -1      5

Notice that for every increase of one unit in 'x', there are an increase 6 units on f(x). Hence, the gradient of the slope of f(x) is 6. 

g(x) = 5x - 4 ⇒ This function follows the general form of the straight line equation, y = mx + c, where 'm' is the gradient and 'c' is the y-intercept.
Hence, the gradient of the slope of g(x) is 5.

The slope of f(x) is steeper than the slope of g(x).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Question B:

The y-intercept is the value of y where a straight line crosses the y-axis (or when x is zero).

From the table of f(x), the y-intercept is -1 (this is the value of 'y' when 'x' is zero)

From the given function g(x) = 5x - 4, the y-intercept is -4. 

f(x) has a greater y-intercept.

Step2247 [10]
Given a <span>graph showing the relationship between daily caffeine consumption and resting heart rate for some adults.

In the graph, the y-axis is labelled 'resting heart rate (bpm)' while the x-axs is labelled 'total coffee intake (cups)'

From the graph it can be seen that the y-value increases as the x-value increases.

Thus the phrases that describe the relationship between heart rate and daily intake of caffeine are as follows:

What is the order of the steps to solve for x in the equation 3x-6x-7=29
dexar [7]
First, you should combine the x terms:

-3x - 7 = 29

Then, get rid of the negative 7, by adding 7 to both sides.

-3x = 22

Finally divide 22 by -3, to solve for x.

x = -22/3 or -7.33

1035.33156649 meters high is the helicopter flying over the building.

Given that, an observer (O) is located 900 feet from a building (B). The observer notices a helicopter (H) flying at a 49° angle of elevation.

We need to find how high is the helicopter flying over the building.

<h3>How to find the height of the building using trigonometry?</h3>

To measure the heights and distances of different objects, we use trigonometric ratios.

Here, use the Tangent rule to calculate the height of the building.

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

Now, tan 49°=h/900

⇒h=1035.33156649 meters

Therefore, 1035.33156649 meters high is the helicopter flying over the building.

How do you prove each of the following theorems using either a two-column, paragraph, or flow chart proof?
lilavasa [31]

All the theorems are proved as follows.

<h3>What is a Triangle ?</h3>

A triangle is a polygon with three sides , three vertices and three angles.

1. The Triangle sum Theorem

According to the Triangle Sum Theorem, the sum of a triangle's angles equals 180 degrees.

To create a triangle ABC, starting at point A, move 180 degrees away from A to arrive at point B.

We turn 180 degrees from B to C and 180 degrees from C to return to A, giving a total turn of 360 degrees to arrive to A.

180° - ∠A + 180° - ∠B + 180° - ∠C = 360°

- ∠A - ∠B  - ∠C = 360° - (180°+ 180°+ 180°) = -180°

∠A + ∠B  + ∠C = 180°

(Hence Proved)

2. Isosceles Triangle Theorem

Considering an isosceles triangle ΔABC

with AB = AC, we have by sine rule;

\rm \dfrac{sinA}{BC} =  \dfrac{sinB}{AC} =  \dfrac{sinC}{AB}\\

as AB = AC

sin B = sin C

angle B = angle C

3.Converse of the Isosceles theorem

Consider an isosceles triangle ΔABC with ∠B= ∠C, we have by sine rule;

\rm \dfrac{sinA}{BC} =  \dfrac{sinB}{AC} =  \dfrac{sinC}{AB}\\

as  ∠B= ∠C ,

AB = AC

4. Midsegment of a triangle theorem

It states that the midsegment of two sides of a triangle is equal to (1/2)of the third side parallel to it.

Given triangle ABC with midsegment at D and F of AB and AC respectively, DF is parallel to BC

In ΔABC and ΔADF

∠A ≅ ∠A

BA = 2 × DA, BC = 2 × FA

Hence;

ΔABC ~ ΔADF (SAS similarity)

BA/DA = BC/FA = DF/AC = 2

Hence AC = 2×DF

5.Concurrency of Medians Theorem

A median of a triangle is a segment whose end points are on vertex of the triangle and the middle point of the side ,the medians of a triangle are concurrent and  the point of intersection is inside the triangle known as Centroid .

Consider a triangle ABC , X,Y and Z are the midpoints of the sides

Since the medians bisect the segment AB into AZ + ZB

BC into BX + XB

AC into AY + YC

Where:

AZ = ZB

BX = XB

AY = YC

AZ/ZB = BX/XB = AY/YC = 1

AZ/ZB × BX/XB × AY/YC = 1 and

the median segments AX, BY, and CZ are concurrent (meet at point within the triangle).
