Answer:
decreasing
Step-by-step explanation:
since its negative it will slope down
Remember
(x^m)(x^n)=x^(m+n)
and
if a^m=a^n, where a=a then n=m
(x^4)(x^n)=x^5
(x^4)(x^n)=x^(4+n)
x^(4+n)=x^5
therefor
4+n=5
minus 4
n=1
Initially, Ball A of 10 kg will have velocity x, while Ball B of 30 kg has velocity -10 m/s.
After collision, Ball A will have a velocity of -30 m/s, while Ball B will have velocity 10 m/s. We assume their masses do not change.
(10 kg)(x m/s) + (30 kg)(-10 m/s) = (10 kg)(-30 m/s) + (30 kg)(10 m/s)
10x - 300 = -300 + 300
x = 30 m/s (to the right)
X intercept (-10,0)
y intercept (0,-5)
