Function f(x) represents the population of bacteria x hours after 9 a.m. What does f(2)-f(1) represent?

Mathematics

Kitty [74]3 years ago
4 0

x = number of hours after 9 am (eg: x = 1 means 1 hr after 9 am, so 10 am)

f(x) = population count x hours after 9 am

f(1) = population count at 10 am (1 hour later)

f(2) = population count at 11 am (2 hrs after 9 am)

f(2) - f(1) represents the difference in population counts from 10 am to 11 am, or put another way, how much the population increased during that time interval.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-5,2)(−5,2) and has a slope of 4/5?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

30 = 5y - 4x or 6 + (4x/5) = y (in mx + c = y form)

Step-by-step explanation:

slope =

y_{2} - y_{1}/ x_{2} - x_{1}

now, y_{2} = 2

x_{2} = -5

insert the values of these two in the slope formula and equate it with 4/5.

by cross multiplication, obtain equation.

the equation is 30 = 5y-4x.

hope this helps you!

Expand and simplify : A) (x+7)(x+10). B) (X-3) (X-9)
garri49 [273]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Using the foil method and distribution, you should get x²+10x+7x+70 from (X×X)+(X×10)+(X×7)+(7×10). When you combine these like terms, you get x²+17x+70.

B) Using the same ideology from part A, when you multiply x-3 into x-9. you should get x²-9x-3x+27. Simplifying this will give you x²-12x+27.

How do you find the range of a function?
NISA [10]
<span>For more difficult cases, it may be easier to draw the graph first using the domain if possible and then determine the range graphically.See if you can find the inverse function. The domain of a function's inverse function is equal to that function's range.<span>Check to see if the function repeats.</span></span>
