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.

Plz help me with this
forsale [732]

Answer:

\frac{31x}{30}

Step-by-step explanation:

Before adding we require the fractions to have a common denominator

The lowest common denominator of 2, 5 and 3 is 30, thus

\frac{15x}{15(2)} + \frac{6x}{6(5)} + \frac{10x}{10(3)}

= \frac{15x}{30} + \frac{6x}{30} + \frac{10x}{30}

Add the numerators leaving the denominator

= \frac{15x+6x+10x}{30} = \frac{31x}{30}

Which of the following relations are functions?
Alisiya [41]
<span>{(c,e),(c,d),(c,b)} is NOT a function since the input c has multiple outputs (e,d,b). So choice B is out

</span><span>{(b,b),(c,d),(d,c),(c,a)} is NOT a function either. The input 'c' corresponds to the output 'd' and 'a' at the same time. So choice C is out too
</span><span>
Choices A and D are the answer. They are functions since any given input corresponds to exactly one output.
