Answer:
E= 11
Step-by-step explanation:
The change in growth was 14 - 0.5 = 13.5 inches.
Since it is over the course of 5 weeks, divide 13.5 by 5.
13.5/5 = 2.7
2.7 = 270%
The rate of change was 270%. Hope this helps!
None of above.The answer is a line with this form:y - 4= - 1 (x - 3)
Answer:
b) i) Curve A
ii) - 1.75
iii) x = 1 - √5 or x = 1 + √5
Step-by-step explanation:
b) i) We are given a function y = x² - 2x - 3 and the graph of this function is also shown in the side diagram.
The equation can be rearranged to y = (x - 1)² - 4
⇒ (x - 1)² = y + 4
Therefore, this is an equation of a parabola having the vertex at (1,-4) point and its axis is parallel to the positive y-axis.
So, the curve A represents the equation given. (Answer)
ii) Now, at x = 2.5, f(x) = 2.5² - 2 × 2.5 - 3 = - 1.75 (Answer)
iii) When y = 1, then x² -2x - 3 = 1
⇒ x² - 2x - 4 = 0
⇒ (x - 1)² - 5 = 0
⇒ (x - 1)² - (√5)² = 0
⇒ (x - 1 + √5)(x - 1 - √5) = 0
⇒ x = 1 - √5 or x = 1 + √5 (Answer)
