Answer:

y = 3/5 x + 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the point-slope equation of a straight line:

y - y1 = m (x - x1) where m = the slope amd (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

Here:

m = (5- (-1)) / (5 - (-5))

= 6/10

= 3/5.

Substituting for m and (5, 5):

y - 5 = 3/5(x - 5)

y - 5 = 3/5x - 3

y = 3/5 x + 2.

(1.) decide if function f is invertible.

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

a) f(n) is the number of students in your calculus class whose birthday is on the nth day of the year.

f(n) is not invertible because several different days, n, may have the same number of students, f(n). Then for one specific f(n) you cannot determine a unique n.

b) f(x) is the volume in litters of x kilograms of water at 4 degrees celsius.?

f(x) is invertible because each x gives a different f(x), then you can determine unambiguously which f(x) corresponds to each x.

I think your answer is 140 + 6x = 462 - 10x
hope that helped!!
