Rule: second differences are 2.

Selection C is appropriate.

_____
First differences are the sequence of differences of the given numbers:
.. 3 -8 = -5
.. 0 -3 = -3
.. -1 -0 = -1
.. 0 -(-1) = 1
Second differences are the sequence of differences of these:
.. -3 -(-5) = 2
.. -1 -(-3) = 2
.. 1 -(-1) = 2
All of these are 2, so the sequence can be described by a *second* order polynomial (because *second* differences are a non-zero constant).

F(x)-mx+ b, f(-2)=3 and f(4)=1 , what is the value of m and b
NeX [460]

Answer: m=\dfrac{-1}{3}, b=\dfrac{7}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Function is  f(x)=mx+b

f(-2)=3

\therefore 3=m(-2)+b\\\Rightarrow b-2m=3\quad \ldots(i)

f(4)=1\\\therefore 1=4m+b\quad \ldots(ii)

from (i) and (ii) we get

m=\dfrac{-1}{3}, b=\dfrac{7}{3}

Next, you will make a scatterplot. Name a point that will be on your scatterplot and describe what it represents.
klio [65]

The point (12, 190) means that the temperature after 12 hours is 190 degrees Celsius

<h3>How to make a scatter plot?</h3>

To do this, we make use of the following points

(12, 190), (14, 201), (15, 301), (16, 305), (18, 350), (20, 40), (25, 450)

Where x represents the number of hours and y represents temperature

See attachment for the scatter plot.

<h3>The description of a point</h3>

To do this, we make use of the point (12, 190)

This means that the temperature after 12 hours is 190 degrees Celsius

(w-2) (w+5) <br> I need help I don't understand ...
Phantasy [73]
<h3>Answer: w^2 + 3w - 10</h3>

===============================================

Work Shown:

Let x = w-2

This will allow us to replace the (w-2) with x to get...

(w-2)(w+5)

x(w+5)

x*w + x*5 ... distribute

w(x) + 5(x)

Now replace x with w-2 and distribute again

w(x) + 5(x)

w(w-2) + 5(w-2)

w*w + w*(-2) + 5*w + 5*(-2)

w^2 - 2w + 5w - 10

w^2 + 3w - 10

What is the x-intercept for the equation -2x + 5y = -10
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The x-intercept is at the point (5,0).

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 5y = -10

At the x intercept y = 0 so we substitute y = 0 into the given equation:

-2x + 5(0) = -10

-2x = -10

x = 5.
