Answer:
There wouldn't be a fraction form because its a whole number which is 9
x - y = 16
x^2 + x^2 = 130
----------------
x^2 - y^2 = 256
+(x^2 + y^2 = 130)
2x^2 = 386
x^2 = 193
x = <span>13.892 (3DP)
----
</span>x - y = 16
13.892 - y = 16
-y = 2.108
y = -2.108
The numbers are: 13.892 and -2.108
Answers:
The formula is [f(-1)-f(-4)]/[3]
The value of f(-1) is 3
The value of f(-4) is -3
The average rate of change is 2
==============================================
Explanation:
For the first blank, we use the formula
[ f(b) - f(a) ]/[ b - a ]
where 'a' and 'b' are the endpoints for the x interval
In this case, a = -4 and b = -1. When you plug those values into the formula above, you get...
[ f(b) - f(a) ]/[ b - a]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ -1 - (-4) ]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ -1+4 ]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ 3 ]
which is why the answer is choice C for the first blank
-------------------------------------------
To compute the value of f(-1), we draw a vertical line through -1 on the x axis. This vertical line crosses the diagonal function graph at the point (-1,3). The y value of this point is what we want. Plugging in x = -1 leads to y = 3. This is why f(-1) = 3
If you want, you can draw a horizontal line through (-1,3) and you'll see it touching 3 on the y axis.
-------------------------------------------
Follow similar steps as above to compute f(-4). Draw a vertical line through x = -4 on the x axis. Mark the point where the vertical line crosses the diagonal line. This point is (-4,-3). Optionally draw a horizontal line over til you hit the y axis and you'll find that y = -3 corresponds to x = -4
This is why f(-4) = -3
-------------------------------------------
We'll use the last three sections to compute the average rate of change. Everything combines together building up to this moment.
From the first part, we had the formula
[ f(b) - f(a) ]/[ b - a ]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ 3 ]
We can replace the "f(-1)" with 3 since we found that f(-1) = 3
Similarly, f(-4) = -3 so we can replace the "f(-4)" with -3
Doing those replacements and simplifying leads to...
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ 3 ]
[ 3 - (-3)]/[ 3 ]
[ 3 + 3]/[ 3 ]
6/3
2
So the average rate of change is 2
Note: because the entire graph is a straight line, the average rate of change for any interval a < x < b is going to be equal to the slope m. In this case, the slope of the line is m = 2/1 = 2. We move up 2 units each time we move to the right 1 unit along the diagonal line.
Answer:
(3, 0) and (5, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
we know that
The x-intercepts are the values of x when the value of y is equal to zero
so
For y=0
The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form
is equal to
in this problem we have
so
substitute in the formula
so
x=3, x=5
therefore
The x-intercepts are (3,0) and (5,0)
Answer:
6 slices
Step-by-step explanation:
The full pizza is 12 pieces. Divide 12 by 4 to find out how much she ate on Thursday. 1/4 of 12 is 3 so she ate 3 slices on Thursday. Subtract 3 from 12 to find out how much was left for the next day. There were 9 slices the next day. Next, divide 9 by 3 to find out what 1/3 of 9 is. 1/3 of 9 is 3 so subtract 3 from the 9 slices. 6 slices are the original pizza remain.
