The graph shows us that the slope of f(x) is -2. Now we gotta find the slope of g(x) to compare it to that of f(x). The equation of g(x) is in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept), so the slope is given to us for that one as well: it's -6. A line with a slope of -6 will be steeper than a line with a slope of -3, therefore the answer is B - the slope of f(x) is less than the slope of g(x).
Hope this helps.

Find all points on the x-axis that are 14 units from the point (6,-7) All points on the x-axis that are 14 units from the point

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer: $(6+7\sqrt{3},0)\text{ and }(6-7\sqrt{3},0)$ are the required points.

or (18.124,0) and ( -6.124,0) are the required points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (x,0) be the point on x -axis that are 14 units from the point (6,-7) .

Then by distance formula , we have

$\sqrt{(x-6)^2+(0-(-7))^2}=14\ \ \ [\ \because distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}]$

Taking square on both the sides , we get

$(x-6)^2+7^2=14^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2+6^2-2(6)x+49=196\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2+36-12x=147\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2-12x=111\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2-12x-111=0$

Using quadratic formula : $x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$x=\dfrac{12\pm\sqrt{(-12)^2-4(1)(-111)}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{12\pm\sqrt{144+444}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{12\pm\sqrt{588}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{12\pm\sqrt{2^2\times7^2\times3}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{12\pm14\sqrt{3}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=6\pm7\sqrt{3}$

so, $(6+7\sqrt{3},0)\text{ and }(6-7\sqrt{3},0)$ are the required points.

since $\sqrt{3}=1.732$

so, $(6+7(1.732),0)\text{ and }(6-7(1.732),0)$ are the required points.

i.e. (18.124,0) and ( -6.124,0) are the required points.

A nontoxic furniture polish can be made by combining vinegar and olive oil. The amount of oil should be three times the amount o

DENIUS [597]

To answer this question you will use ratios. The information given gives us a part to part ratio of 1 part vinegar for every 3 parts oil.

Because the total amount of furniture polish is 30 ounces, we will need to write one part vinegar to three parts oil as a part to part to whole ratio.

Use this information then and create an equivalent ratio with a total of 30 ounces. See below.

1 vinegar (x7.5) = 7.5 ounces
3 oil. (X7.5). = 22.5 ounces
4 total (x7.5). = 30 ounces

You will need 7.5 ounces of vinegar and a 22.5 ounces of oil.

Which statement is true?

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

$y=log_{1} x$ is not a logarithmic function because the base is equal to 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

A logarithmic function is of the form: $y=log_{b}x$

For a logarithmic function to exist, we must fulfill certain conditions. The conditions are

i. The base, $b$ , is greater than 0. ${b>0)$

ii. The base, $b$ , is not equal to 1. $(b\ne 1)$

iii. $x$ must be greater than 0. $(x>0)$

Now, if we observe all the choices given, we conclude that the third choice is correct as the base there is 1. If base is equal to 1, then it violates the definition of logarithmic functions. So, the correct choice is:

$y=log_{1} x$ is not a logarithmic function because the base is equal to 1.

i need help please! I think I know the answer but for some reason my brain's telling me that it's wrong so if someone could expl

Ivenika [448]

Considering the slopes of the segments, the correct option is:

D. No, because the triangle ABC doesn't have a pair of perpendicular sides.

<h3>When are lines parallel, perpendicular or neither?</h3>

The slope, given by <u>change in y divided by change in x</u>, determines if the lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither, as follows:

If they are equal, the lines are parallel.

If their multiplication is of -1, they are perpendicular.

Otherwise, they are neither.

Here, we have to find if there are perpendicular segments, that is, if two slopes multiplied have a value of -1, then:

mAB = (-7 - 9)/(11 - 1) = -8/5.

mAC = (3 - 9)/(-9 - 1) = 3/5.

mBC = (3 - (-7))/(-9 - 11) = -1/2.

No sides are perpendicular, hence option D is correct.
