We can find the slope of this line by using the slope formula:

$\frac{y.2 - y.1}{x.2 - x.1} = m$

We'll use the points (-6, 0) and (0, -3)

(-3 - 0) / (0 + 6) = -3/6 = -0.5

The slope of the line is A, -1/2

Verify whether the indicated numbers are zeroes of their corresponding polynomials.

natita [175]

Answer:

No, incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Q(s) = -4s^3 + 7s^2 - 24;
s = -4 and 1

Verifying zeroes

Q(-4) =

-4(-4)^3 + 7(-4)^2 - 24 =
256 + 112 - 24 =
344
Incorrect as 344 ≠ 0

Q(1) =

-4(1)^3 + 7(1)^2 - 24 =
-12 + 7 - 24 =
-29
Incorrect as -29 ≠ 0

Hi there!

I believe your answer is:

Option A; $m \leq\frac{3}{5}$

»»————-　★　————-««

Here’s why:

We can use inverse operations to solve for 'm'.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

$\boxed{\text{Solving for 'm':}}\\\\5m+1\leq4\\--------\\\rightarrow 5m + 1 - 1 \leq 4 - 1\\\\\rightarrow 5m\leq3\\\\\rightarrow \frac{5m\leq3}{5}\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{m\leq\frac{3}{5}}$

⸻⸻⸻⸻

Any number that is less than or equal to the value of three-fifths would work.

The option that is less than or equal to (3/5) is option A.

Assuming that there are more options than the options shown, choose the numbers that are less than or equal to (3/5).

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.
