Hello there!
A positive slope is represented in a linear equation by a positive coefficient behind the x term. A positive slope means that the graph is on an increasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a positive slope means that the graph is going up from left to right.
A negative slope is represented in a linear equation by a negative coefficient behind the x term. A negative slope means that the graph is on a decreasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a negative slope means that the graph is going down from left to right.
The x intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the x-axis. These are also known as the zero(s) OR solution(s) of the function.
The y intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the y-axis.
I hope this helps!
Best wishes:)
The average of 4, 9, 16, 25 and x is 2x means that;
(4+9+16+25+x)/5=2x
Multiply both side by 5
5(54+x)/5=2x(5)
54+x=10x
Subtract x to both side
54+x-x=10x-x
54=9x
Divided 9 to both side
54/9=9x/9
x=6
Check:
Substitute x with 6
(4+9+16+25+x)/5=2x
(4+9+16+25+6)/5=2(6)
60/5=12
12=12; so x=6 which marks B as the correct answer. Have a nice day!
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(p + 3/5 ) = -4
-5p - 3/5 *5 = -4
-5p - 3 = - 4
-5p = -4 +3
-5p = -1
therefore p = 1/ 5
Answer:
80 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance = rate x time. Therefore, 20 ft / min x 4 min = 80 ft.
