Answer:
Linear functions are equations where the greatest power of the variable (typically x) is 1;
They are graphed as straight lines;
So, any function that has the following format:
f(x) = ax + b;
Nonlinear functions would be any equation that has a variable to a power greater than 1;
This could be a quadratic equation or an exponential equation
Answer:
48 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
9 divided by 3 equals 3, 16 multiplied by 3 equals 48.
Quadratic formula is x = -b+ or- sq rt b^2-4ac / 2a
a=2 b=5 c=-3
-5 +or- sqrt 5^2-4(2)(-3) / 2(2)
-5 +or- sqrt 49/ 4
-5 + 7 /4 = 2/4 = 1/2
-5 - 7 /4 = -12/4 = -3
Factoring a*c is 2*-3 =-6
Factors of -6 that add to 5 are 6 and -1
Split 5x into +6x-1x
2x^2+6x-1x-3 and group
2x(x+3)-1(x+3)
(x+3)(2x-1)=0
x+3=0 gives x=-3
2x-1=0 gives x=1/2
