What is the slope of the line between (−4, 4) and (−1, −2)? i got -3??????? which isn't an answer.
kolbaska11 [484]
Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x between two points. Slope = y2 - y1/x2 - x1 -2 - 4/ -1 - (-4) -6/3 -2 Hope this helps!

Find f(-5) and f(12) for each piecewise function f(x){-4x+3 if x&lt;3
Law Incorporation [45]
<h3>Answers:</h3>
  • f(-5) = 23
  • f(12) = 433

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

Explanation:

The given piecewise function is

f(x) = \begin{cases}-4x+3 \ \text{ if } \ x < 3\\-x^3 \ \text{ if } \ 3 \le x \le 8\\3x^2+1 \ \text{ if } \ x > 8\end{cases}

At first piecewise functions may be strange confusing things, but they aren't so bad. I like to think of it like this: f(x) is a function that changes its identity based on what the input x is. We have three situations

  • f(x) = -4x+3 when x < 3
  • f(x) = -x^3 when 3 \le x \le 8
  • f(x) = 3x^2+1 when x > 8

In a sense, we have three different functions but they are combined somehow.

If x is smaller than 3, then we go for the first definition. Or if x is between 3 and 8, then we go for the second definition. Or if x is larger than 8, then we go for the third definition.

-----------------------

f(-5) means f(x) when x = -5. We see that -5 is smaller than 3, so x = -5 makes x < 3 true. We'll use the first definition

f(x) = -4x+3

f(-5) = -4(-5)+3

f(-5) = 20+3

f(-5) = 23

------------------------

Now the input is x = 12. This is larger than 8. In other words, x = 12 makes x > 8 true. We'll use the third definition

f(x) = 3x^2+1

f(12) = 3(12)^2+1

f(12) = 3(144)+1

f(12) = 432+1

f(12) = 433

------------------------

Side notes:

  • We won't use the second definition since we don't have any x inputs between 3 and 8
  • To say "less than or equal to" on a keyboard, you can write "<=" without quotes. For example, x \le 5 is the same as x<=5
