The values are increasing equally so it's a linear function.
The formula is
For
,
so
(y-intercept).
Take some point and put its coordinates into the equation to find
(slope).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To find (fg)(x), we have to look at f(x) and g(x) and multiply the two quantities together. We are already given the two quantities individually so all that is left is the multiplication:
If we reorder the terms to go from highest degree to lowest, we get our final answer to be the following:
Percent means parts out of 100
18%=18/100=1.8/10=0.18
0.18<0.70
18%<0.7
0.7 is larrger because math
Answer:
x = - 5, x = - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 3 | 2x + 6 | = - 12 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
| 2x + 6 | = 4
The absolute value always returns a positive value, but the expression inside can be positive or negative, that is
2x + 6 = 4 ( subtract 6 from both sides )
2x = - 2 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = - 1
OR
- (2x + 6) = 4 ← distribute left side
- 2x - 6 = 4 ( add 6 to both sides )
- 2x = 10 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
x = - 5
As a check
Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.
x = - 1 → - 3| - 2 + 6 | = - 3 | 4 | = - 3 × 4 = - 12 ← True
x = - 5 → - 3 | - 10 + 6 | = - 3 | - 4 | = - 3 × 4 = - 12 ← True
Thus x = - 5 and x = - 1 are the solutions
