Is this a linear function , why or why not ? explain y=x^2-1

If you graph out y = x^2 - 1, you'll see that it is a curved parabola. It is not a straight line. So visually this shows the equation is not linear. It's considered nonlinear.

Algebraically, the given equation does not fit the form y = mx+b which is slope intercept form. So this is more confirmation that we do not have a linear function.

A is true but f(x) is wrong need help
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

f(x)=-18x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

1+Integral(f(t)/t^6, t=a..x)=6x^-3

Let's get rid of integral by differentiating both sides.

Using fundamental of calculus and power rule(integration):

0+f(x)/x^6=-18x^-4

Additive Identity property applied:

f(x)/x^6=-18x^-4

Multiply both sides by x^6:

f(x)=-18x^-4×x^6

Power rule (exponents) applied"

f(x)=-18x^2

Check:

1+Integral(-18t^2/t^6, t=a..x)=6x^-3

1+Integral(-18t^-4, t=a..x)=6x^-3

1+(-18t^-3/-3, t=a..x)=6x^-3

1+(6t^-3, t=a..x)=6x^-3

That looks great since those powers are the same on both side after integration.

Plug in limits:

1+(6x^-3-6a^-3)=6x^-3

We need 1-6a^-3=0 so that the equation holds true for all x.

Subtract 1 on both sides:

-6a^-3=-1

Divide both sides by-6:

a^-3=1/6

Raise both sides to -1/3 power:

a=(1/6)^(-1/3)

Negative exponent just refers to reciprocal of our base:

a=6^(1/3)

Select the postulate of equality or inequality that is illustrated.
Effectus [21]

I think this is the Transitive postulate of equality.

Personally I can't see much point in giving labels to these equalities.

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

We put the value of the x in the formula

{4 \times }(6)^{2}  - 7 \times 6 + 12

f(6)=

4 \times 36 - 7 \times 6 + 12 = 144 - 42 + 12 = 102 + 12 = 114

Step-by-step explanation:

Than solve equation.

Shinto is serving pizza. He serves 1/5 of the pizza to one friend and 5/12 to another friend. If he had 9/10 of a pizza to start
never [62]

Answer: 17/60

Step-by-step explanation:

Change all of the fractions to have a common denominator:

LCM of 10, 12, 15 is 60

You get 12/60, 25/60, and 54/60.

54/60 is what he had at the start, and so you can just subtract what he gave away

54/60-12/60=42/60

42/60-25/60=17/60

17 is a prime number so you cannot simplify the fraction
