Answer:

  -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The power rule can be used.

  f(x) = 5x^-1

  f'(x) = 5(-1)x^(-1-1)

  f'(x) = -5x^-2

Then ...

  f'(-1) = -5(-1)^-2

  f'(-1) = -5

_____

The attached graph shows the value of the derivative at x=-1, along with a tangent line having that slope at the point (-1, f(-1)).

Ber [7]

Answer:

15 more weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

425 - 125 (what shes already saved)

300 divided by 20 (amount shes saving each week)

Result is 15, so 15 more weeks.

Hope this helped :)

If you mean how many weeks total, 125 according to the 20 dollars a week would bring it 22 weeks i think.. since the answer answer is 21.2 weeks exactly when you divide 425 by 20.
