x=-85
Answer:
2.5(x-1)+4.5(-x-2)
2.5x-2.5-4.5x-9
-2x-11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
It looks like a vertical line that intersects the x-axis at x=-0.5.
It's on the left side of the y-axis.
Keep Change Flip!!!
Keep: the first fraction 5 or 5/1
Change: Division sign to multiplication sign
Flip (reciprocal): the second fraction
So you get 5/1*9/2= 45/2 which simplified to 22 1/2
Answer:
"a" must be negative
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope between points (-1, 1) and (1, -1) is a minimum of (-1-1)/(1-(-1)) = -1.
The slope between points (1, -1 and (3, -4) is a maximum of (-4-(-1))/(3-1) = -3/2.
Thus, as x increases, the slope is decreasing. In order for that to be the case, the value of <em>a</em> must satisfy a < 0.
