The two points are (x, f(x)) and (x+h, f(x+h)).  To find the slope, the definition is the change in y over the change of x.  Does this sound familiar!!  Applying this definition we get the following formula:  and the points x<span>1 = 2 and x2 = 4.  Then in our general answer, we will replace x with x1 and h = x2 - x1.  Replacing these values in the formula yields  2(2) + (4 - 2) = 4 + 2 = 6.  Thus, the slope of the secant line connecting the two points of the function is 6. </span><span>Now using the same function as above, find the average rate of change between x1 = -1 and x2<span> = -3.  The answer is 2(-1) + ( -3 + 1) = -2 + -2 = -4.  This means that the secant line is going downhill or decreasing as you look at it from le</span></span>

The table shows the altitudes of four different cities. What is the correct way to arrange the altitudes in decreasing order?
ki77a [65]

Answer:

A. 58, 13,-35,-51

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the greatest positive number, 58. Then use the next greatest positive number, 13. When it comes to negative numbers, the number with the smaller absolute value is greater.

|-35| = 35

|-53| = 53

-35 has a smaller absolute value than -53, so -35 is greater than -53.

Answer: A. 58, 13,-35,-51

What is the effect on the graph of the function f(x) = x when f(x) is replaced with −f(x) + 5?
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The function f(x) translated left by 5 units and then it is reflected across the x-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

The original equation of the graph of the function is f(x) = x ........ (1)

If we replace f(x) by [- f(x) + 5] then the equation becomes - f(x) + 5 = x  

⇒ f(x) = - (x - 5) ..... (2)

So, comparing equations (1) and (2), we can conclude that the graph of the function f(x) translated left by 5 units and then it is reflected across the x-axis. (Answer)

28 is 35% of what number?
Fofino [41]
28 is 35% of 80

Convert the percentage (35) into a decimal by dividing it over 100:
\frac{35}{100} = 0.35

Divide 28 over 0.35:
\frac{28}{0.35} = 80
