Well think, 24= 8x4 right? So, 2 can go into 24 which=12 so lets divide.
24÷2= 12
12÷2=6
6÷2=3
3 is the smallest we can get so can 3 go into 24? yes, so 8 times
so the smallest they can be are 8*3 and you cant reduce 8 anymore because of the three once one gets the smallest they both do. hope this helped.

In the equation y = 3x – 1, what is the value of y when x equals –3?

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

D. –10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

y = 3x – 1

what is the value of y when x equals –3?

Substitute x = -3 into the equation to find y

y = 3x – 1

= 3(-3) - 1

= -9 - 1

= -10

y = -10

The correct answer is D. –10

Write down the next two terms of the number pattern 2,5,8,11,14 <br>

valkas [14]

Answer:

17 and 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Write down the next two terms of the number pattern 2, 5, 8, 11, 14

Looking at the numbers, we can tell that they are increasing by 3:

2 + 3 = 5

5 + 3 = 8

8 + 3 = 11

11 + 3 = 14

14 + 3 = 17

17 + 3 = 20

Hope this helps!

What function is increasing? will give brainlist !

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A.

f(x) = $(0.5)^{x}$

Derivative of the given function,

f'(x) = $\frac{d}{dx}(0.5)^x$

= $(0.5)^x[\text{ln}(0.5)]$

= $-(0.693)(0.5)^{x}$

Since derivative of the function is negative, the given function is decreasing.

Option B. f(x) = $5^x$

f'(x) = $\frac{d}{dx}(5)^x$

= $(5)^x[\text{ln}(5)]$

= $1.609(5)^x$

Since derivative is positive, given function is increasing.

Option C. f(x) = $(\frac{1}{5})^x$

f'(x) = $\frac{d}{dx}(\frac{1}{5})^x$

= $\frac{d}{dx}(5)^{(-x)}$

= $-5^{-x}.\text{ln}(5)$

Since derivative is negative, given function is decreasing.

Option D. f(x) = $(\frac{1}{15})^x$

f'(x) = $-15^{-x}[\text{ln}(15)]$

= $-2.708(15)^{-x}$

Since derivative is negative, given function is decreasing.

Option (B) is the answer.
