Answer:
6/5 or 1.2, they're the same value
Step-by-step explanation:
When it says "rate of change", it's really just asking for the slope. If you don't know what the slope is, essentially how much the y-value increases by whenever x increases by 1. This can be formally defined using the equation: which is essentially
. The subtraction is finding the difference between the two numbers to see how much it's changed by. Btw the order doesn't matter, I could plug in (-3, -2) as (x2, y2) or I could plug it in as (x1, y1) as long as I make sure to input it in correctly. In this example I'll just say (-3, -2) = (x1, y1) and (2, 4) = (x2, y2). Plugging these values into the equation gives you:
that's the rate of change
The given equation is,
Part 1:
Solve the above equation for n.
Using distributive property of multiplication,
Now, group the like terms.
Now, add the like terms.
0=-12 is a false statement.
Since we obtained a false statement, the given equation has no solution.
So, option b is correct.
Part 2:
The option (a) is n=3.
If while solving an equation, a single value is obtained for the variable, then the equation has only a single solution. If n=3 is obtained after solving the equation, then the student should chose option (a) as the answer.
The option (b) is "no solution".
While solving an equation, if we obtain an equation which is mathematically false, then the equation will have no solution. So, no solution is chosen when no value is obtained for n and the final equation is mathematically false.
The option (c) is "infinitely many solutions".
While solving an equation, if we obtain an equation which is mathematically correct such as 0=0, 7=7 etc., then the equation will have infinietly many solutions. So, infinitely many solutions is chosen when no value is obtained for n and the final equation is mathematically correct.
