Answer:
a = -3.5
Explanation:
2 - 4a = 16
-4a = 14
a = -3.5
Answer: The approximate solution is (-0.36, 2.08).
Given system of equations : x+5y=10 and 3x+y=1
Answer: Choice C
h(x) = -x^4 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 + 4x + 5
===========================================
Explanation:
When reflecting the function f(x) over the y axis, we replace every x with -x and simplify like so
f(x) = -x^4 - 2x^3 + 3x^2 - 4x + 5
f(-x) = -(-x)^4 - 2(-x)^3 + 3(-x)^2 - 4(-x) + 5
f(-x) = -x^4 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 + 4x + 5
h(x) = -x^4 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 + 4x + 5
Note the sign changes that occur for the terms that have odd exponents (the terms -2x^3 and -4x become +2x^3 and +4x); while the even exponent terms keep the same sign.
The reason why we replace every x with -x is because of the examples mentioned below
-----------
Examples:
The point (1,2) moves to (-1,2) after a y axis reflection
Similarly, (-5,7) moves to (5,7) after a y axis reflection.
As you can see, the y coordinate stays the same but the x coordinate flips in sign from negative to positive or vice versa. This is the direct reason for the replacement of every x with -x.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's pick two points on the line: 
and 
Let's calculate the slope of this line using these points:
With this value of the slope, we can write the general slope-intercept form of the equation as
To solve for the y-intercept b, let's use either P1 or P2. I'm going to use P2:
Therefore, the slope-intercept form of the equation is
Answer:
None
Step-by-step explanation:
If 1/3 is left every hour then it would then after 3 hours wouldn't it be gone? Most would assume if only a third of the water is left every hour then after three hours there would be either of two answers if the question was written correctly: one third because they refilled it on the 2nd hour or none because it wouldn't even last two hours
