C the two y values repeat
Answer:
- x = 10
- B. 3/7
Step-by-step explanation:
1. (x - 2)/ 4 - (3x + 5)/7 = - 3
7(x -2) -4(3x +5) = -84 . . . . . . . multiply by 28
7x -14 -12x -20 = -84 . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
-5x -34 = -84 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
-5x = -50 . . . . . . . . add 34
x = 10 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by -5

2. 1/(1 + 1/(1 - 1/x)) = 4
1 = 4(1 +1/(1 -1/x)) . . . . multiply by the denominator
-3 = 4/(1 -1/x) . . . . . . . eliminate outer parentheses, subtract 4
-3(1 -1/x) = 4 . . . . . . . multiply by the denominator
-3 +3/x = 4 . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
3/x = 7 . . . . . . . . . . . add 3
x = 3/7 . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by x/7

Answer is -3</h3>
How I got that answer:
The graph shows the two points (0,-4) and (-2,2) are on the parabola. The x coordinates of both points are from x = 0 and x = -2 as given in the instructions. Compute the slope of the line through those points. The slope of this line is the exact same as the average rate of change from x = -2 to x = 0.
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (2 - (-4))/(-2-0)
m = (2 + 4)/(-2-0)
m = 6/(-2)
m = -3
A negative slope means the line slopes downhill as you move from left to right. This is a negative average rate of change.
