Yes, it follows the standard function of a slope. This is y=mx+b, with m being the slope and b being the y-intercept.

Yes it is a function any single value of x has only one value of y

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (6, -3) and<br> (-6, -5)?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an equation for a straight line is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).

We can calculate the slope from the two given points, (6,-3) and (-6,-5).  Slope is Rise/Run, where Rise is the change in y and Run is the change in x.

From the two given points, starting at (-6,-5) and going to (6,-3):

Rise = (-3 - (-5)) = +2

Run = (6 - (-6)) = 12

Rise/Run (slope) = 2/12 or 1/6

The equation becomes y = (1/6)x + b

We can find b by enterieng either of the two given points and solving for b.  I'll pick (6,-3):

y = (1/6)x + b

-3 = (1/6)*(6) + b

-3 = 1 + b             [Now you can see why I chose (6,-3)]

b = -4

The equation is y = (1/6)x - 4

Check this with a DESMOS graph (attached).

Given the recursive function f(n) = f(n - 1) - 3 ; f(1) = 9 , what would be the first three terms of the sequence ?
Ann [662]

The first three terms of sequence are 9 , 6 , 3

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given the recursive function f(n) = f(n - 1) - 3

Where f(1) = 9

To find: First three terms of sequence

Substitute n = 2 , n = 3 and n = 4 in given recursive function

When n = 2

f(n) = f(n - 1) - 3

f(2) = f(2 - 1) - 3

f(2) = f(1) - 3

f(2) = 9 - 3 = 6

f(2) = 6

Thus second term is 6

When n = 3

f(3) = f( 3 - 1) - 3

f(3) = f(2) - 3

f(3) = 6 - 3 = 3

f(3) = 3

Thus the third term is 3

When n = 4

f(4) = f( 4 - 1) - 3

f(4) = f(3) - 3

f(4) = 3 - 3

f(4) = 0

Thus the fourth term is 0

Thus first three terms of sequence are 9 , 6 , 3

ann is grouping 38 rocks, she can put into groups of 10 rocks or as single rocks what are the different ways she can group them
inysia [295]
Since Anna is either grouping them as single rock or as group of 10, we need to find the maximum number of groups of 10 as follows: 38/10 = 3.8

This means that Anna can make maximum 3 groups of 10 rocks.

Based on this, the different ways to group the rocks are as follows:
- 3 groups of 10 and 8 (which are calculated as: 38-30) single rocks
- 2 groups of 10 and 18 (which are calculated as: 38-20) single rocks
- 1 group of 10 and 28 (which are calculated as: 38-10) single rocks
- 0 group of 10 and 38 (which are calculated as: 38-0) single rocks
