If f(1) =5-2(1)
F(2)=5-2(2)
Answer:
k = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the quantities are in direct proportion then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of proportion
The y- axis is number of cups and x- axis is pounds of sugar
To find k use any of the 5 points highlighted on the graph
Using (8, 40 ), then
40 = 8k ( divide both sides by 8 )
5 = k
(4*3)+-4=8, this is just how to put it in the equation
An inequality is also an algebraic equation. However, instead of '=' sign, it uses either of these: <, >, ≤, ≥. To translate: <span>X differs from 2 by more than 3, that would be:
2 - x > 3
We use the '>' equation because the open area should face the larger value. Solving the equation:
-x > 3 - 2
-x > 1
x > -1</span>
<span>In order for an equation to have an infinite number of answers, the simplified equation should be x=x. In evaluating the above equation, -3 inserted in the box results in this simplified equation. The answer is therefor #1: -3</span>
