Answer:

They can never be both either increasing or decreasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the rate of change i.e. the slope of one linear function is positive, that means the graph of the linear function makes angle which varies between 0° to 90° with respect to the positive direction of the x-axis.

Therefore, the function must be increasing.

Again, if the rate of change i.e. the slope of one linear function is negative, that means the graph of the linear function makes angle which varies between 90° to 180° with respect to the positive direction of the x-axis.

Therefore, the function must be decreasing.

Hence, if the rate of change of one linear function is positive and for another is negative, they can never be both either increasing or decreasing. (Answer)

Find the value of x ?
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

add all terms and set sum equal to 360

the 'hint' of (n-2)180 determines how many degrees there are inside the polygon; if 'n' equals the number of sides and the polygon has 4 sides then sum of interior angles is (4-2)180 or 2x180 which is 360

x + 10 + 3x + x + 2x = 360

combine like terms to get:  7x + 10 = 360

                                             7x = 350

                                              x = 50
