Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are no multiples other than 1 and -1 that could multiply in any way to equal 1, those are the only numbers you can really work with
it is a possibility that a, b, and c could equal 1 but then it would go wrong when comes time to subtract since all numbers are equal and cannot subtract largest from smallest.
a logical approach would be to try -1, -1, and 1 since -1 * -1 = 1 and then 1* 1 =1
we can make a= -1 , b= -1, and c= 1
(we need b to equal -1 so that we get an answer of -1 opposed to if we made a=-1 and c=-1, all outcomes would equal 1)
-1²=1
-1³=-1
1⁴= 1
since 1 is the largest possible outcome and -1 is the lowest possible outcome you should subtract the two
1-(-1) = 1+1 = 2
The answer should be D: 2
hoped this helped at all!
The linear equation in standard form is

<h3>Linear Function</h3>
An equation can be represented by a linear function. The standard form for the linear equation is: ax+b , for example, y=7x+2. Where:
a= the slope. It can be calculated for
.
b= the constant term that represents the y-intercept.
The question gives: X-intercept:3 and y-intercept: 5. Then,
- The x-intercept is the point that y=0, then the x-intercept point is (3,0).
- The y-intercept is the point that x=0, then the x-intercept point is (0,5).
With this information, you can find the slope (a).

The question gives the coefficient b since it gives the y-intercept=5.
Therefore the linear equation is :

Answer:
a = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Simplify 5a - 9 + a to 6a - 9.

2) Add 9 to both sides.

3) Simplify 9 + 9 to 18.

4) Divide both sides by 6.

5) Simplify 18/6 to 3.

Therefor, the answer is, a = 3.
Let
= amount of salt (in pounds) in the tank at time
(in minutes). Then
.
Salt flows in at a rate

and flows out at a rate

where 4 quarts = 1 gallon so 13 quarts = 3.25 gallon.
Then the net rate of salt flow is given by the differential equation

which I'll solve with the integrating factor method.



Integrate both sides. By the fundamental theorem of calculus,





After 1 hour = 60 minutes, the tank will contain

pounds of salt.
