Answer: OPTION D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The symbol of the inequality ">" means "greater than". Then, -5 is greater than -6.

If a negative number -a is greater than other negative number -b , then the distance between -a and zero is shorter than the distance between -b and zero.

You can see in the number line attached that -5 is closer to 0 than -6. Therefore, -5 is located to the right of -6.

1. The graph of every exponential function f(x)= ax, a>0, a≠1, passes through what three points(in terms of a)? Explain.

Anvisha [2.4K]

The exponential function
f(x) = a^x
can pass through all points as long as x is any real number

As an example, we can choose values of x.
x = -4, x = 0, x=100

The value of the function in terms of a would be
f(-4) = a^-4
f(0) = a^0 = 1
f(100) = a^100

PLS HELP

Goryan [66]

To find the range you subtract the largest number from the smallest 20-13=7. To find the interquartile range you have to find the median of the data set. The median is 18.5, now there are two sets split in half. The median for the lower quartile is 14.5 and the median for the upper quartile is 19. Range=7 and IQR=18.5-14.5=4. IQR=4
