The y-intercept is 10 hours and it represents the number of hours it took to empty one tank
To solve this, we would need to figure out the values of
for which an absolute value is negative. From basics, you should know that an absolute value is always greater than or equal to 0.
If we rearrange this equation a little bit, we get,

So
<em>cannot </em>be negative. So,

For this to <em>have </em>a solution, k needs to be greater than or equal to
.
For <em>no solution</em>, k is less than -5. So, values of k which will make the equation to <em>not </em>have any solution is
.
ANSWER: 
Average rate of change = (x(4) - x(2))/(4 - 2) = ((4 + 2(4)^2) - (2 + 2(2)^2))/2 = ((4 + 2(16)) - (2 + 2(4)))/2 = ((4 + 32) - (2 + 8))/2 = (36 - 10)/2 = 26/2 = 13.
Therefore, average velocity is 13 m/s
Diameter = 2*radius
14/2=7
Radius is 7in"
Circumference of circle formula: 2pi(radius)
2pi(7)= 43.98in of wire required so it can wrap around lamp exactly once.
