Using a linear function, it is found that the product rs is rs = 81.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
In this problem, when x changes by 68(from -64 to 68), y changes by -16(from 12 to -4), hence the slope is given by:
m = -16/64 = -0.25.
Hence:
y = -0.25x + b.
When x = 34, y = -4, hence this is used to find b.
-4 = -0.25(34) + b
b = 4.5.
Hence the function is:
y = -0.25x + 4.5.
f(r) = 0, hence:
-0.25x + 4.5 = 0
x = 4.5/0.25
x = 18
r = 18.
f (0) = s, hence s = 4.5.
Then the value of the product is:
rs = 18 x 4.5 = 81.

#SPJ1
The next greater tenth is 14.7
The next smaller tenth is 14.5
Neither of them is nearer to 14.6 than 14.6 already is.
So 14.6 is already the nearest tenth.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First simplify
-8+9w-23
Then Group simliar terms
(-8-23)+9w
After simplify
-31 +9w
Answer:
I'm not sure about "11" but 12. is "by the definition of right angles", and 16. is "by the SAS(side angle side) congruency theorem"
