Answer:

The x intercept would be -4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, get your numbers into slope intercept form, y = mx + b. This would be y = -1/2x - 2. Then, replace y for 0, which would be 0 = -1/2x - 2. Add 2 on both sides to get 2 = -1/2x. then, multiply each side by -2, you end up with -4 = x, which means -4 is your x intercept.

Select the correct answer.

alex41 [277]

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change of a function 'f' in the interval x = a and x = b is given by,

Average rate of change of change = $\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$

Given function is,

g(x) = $\frac{5}{x-1}+2$

We have to calculate the rate of change in the interval [-4, 3],

Average rate of change = $\frac{g(3)-g(-4)}{3-(-4)}$

g(3) = $\frac{5}{3-1}+1$

= 2.5 + 1

= 3.5

g(-4) = $\frac{5}{-4-1}+1$

= -1 + 1

= 0

Average rate of change = $\frac{3.5-0}{3+4}$

= $\frac{3.5}{7}$

= $\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, Option B will be the answer.

Write the following number in standard decimal form.

Anestetic [448]

Answer: 6.534 x 10^(-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Six thousand five hundred and thirty four ten thousandth

6534/10000

Convert to decimal

6534/10000=0.6534

Then convert to standard form

0.6534=6.534 x 10^(-1)
