Y= x + 3
1. Find the gradient(slope)
1 - 7 / - 2 - 4
=1
2. Find the y. Intercept ( c )
Y = x + c
Replace by any of the two coordinates given (4 , 7 )
7 = 4 + c
C= 3
Equation => Y = x + 3
So, let's begin...
First off, you must note that the question is asking for the d value when you substitute the value of c(x).
You are given the following information:
1. The c(x) value is already given to be 0.75x.
2. The equation to find d of (any value) is 0.8y-5.
So, substitute the value of 0.75x as a y value into 0.8y - 5. This is because you are substituting the value of c(x) for d. This is equal to 0.8 times 0.75x - 5. This is equal to 0.6x - 5, which is the function. Thus, your final answer is d(c(x)) = 0.6x - 5.
If you have any questions please comment. Otherwise, hope this helps! :)
The answer to your question is:
It is a quadratic equation in 'x', with 'n' mistakenly typed in the second term..
Although you didn't ask for the solutions to the equation, I'm already here
so I might as well go through it and find them:
<span><u>3x² - 2x - 5 = 0</u></span>
In terms of the generic quadratic formula:
A = 3
B = -2
C = -5
Plug those into the quadratic formula, and you discover that
<u>x = -1</u>
and
<u>x = ⁵/₃</u>
