Answer:
No, because as the x-values are increasing by a constant amount, the y-values are not being multiplied by a constant amount.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a set of ordered pairs of the form (x, y)
If a function is exponential then the ratio between the consecutive values of y, is always equal to a constant.
This means that:
\frac{y_2}{y_1}=\frac{y_3}{y_2}=\frac{y_4}{y_3}=by1y2=y2y3=y3y4=b
This is: y_2=by_1y2=by1
Now we have this set of points {(-1, -5), (0, -3), (1, -1), (2, 1)}
Observe that:
\begin{gathered}\frac{y_2}{y_1}=\frac{-3}{-5}=\frac{3}{5}\\\\\frac{y_3}{y_2}=\frac{-1}{-3}=\frac{1}{3}\\\\\frac{3}{5}\neq \frac{1}{3}\end{gathered}y1y2=−5−3=53y2y3=−3−1=3153=31
Then the values of y are not multiplied by a constant amount "b"
(3/x)+(4/(x^2))
give common denominator:
(3x/(x^2))+(4/(x^2)) = (3x+4)/(x^2)

Answer:
(C) -7x − 5y = -48
Step-by-step explanation:
We look for the equation of the line AB
We have then:
y-yo = m (x-x0)
m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
m = (4 - (- 1)) / (4 - (- 3))
m = 5/7
We choose an ordered pair:
(xo, yo) = (4, 4)
Substituting:
y-4 = (5/7) (x-4)
y = (5/7) x-20/7 + 4
7y = 5x - 20 + 28
7y = 5x + 8
y = (5/7) x + 8/7
The equation of the perpendicular line is:
-7x - 5y = -48
Answer:
the equation of BC is:
(C) -7x - 5y = -48
