\text{Yes, it is a linear function}\\\\\text{The reason why it's a linear function is because there is a constant change}\\\\\text{The constant change would be your slope, and the slope in this case}\\\text{is 0.5}\\\\\text{If you plug this equation in a graph, it would be a straight line forever}\\\\\text{If you want to know if a line is linear, just check the slope to see if it's}\\\text{constant.}

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b. Any equation in this form is linear.

Step-by-step explanation:

if it was x squared it is not linear, its quadratic, so if there is ever an equation with just an x its linear. any x that has an exponent that's is not 1 is not linear. Hope this makes sense.

Write the explicit rule of the arithmetic sequence that has a first term of 3 and a fourth term of 18
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

a_{n} = 5n - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Given a₄ = 18 , then

a₁ + 3d = 18 , that is

3 + 3d = 18 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

3d = 15 (divide both sides by 3 )

d = 5

Then

a_{n} = 3 + 5(n - 1) = 3 + 5n - 5 = 5n - 2 ← explicit rule

Sarah has whole milk, which contains 3.25% butterfat by volume, and one type of low-fat milk,
givi [52]

Answer:

D is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

We want a mixture of low-fat and whole milk to equal 32ounces

Therefore, we know one equation is:

l + w = 32

That 32 ounce mixture should be 2% butter fat

So the amount of butter fat we want is

2% of 32 = 0.64 ounces

At the same time, this mixture contains low-fat and whole milk, which contain 1% and 3.25% butter fat respectively.

therefore, the butter fat in low-fat and whole milk is 0.01l and 0.0325w respectively.

The coefficients are just the percentages in decimal form

Due to the law of conservation of mass,

The addition of these two should yield the final amount of butter fat, meaning the other equation is:

0.01l + 0.0325w = 0.64
