Answer:
Solving the expression 
we get: 
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to solve the expression:
This is a quadratic expression and it can be solved using quadratic formula
Solving:
we can write it as:
The quadratic formula is: 
where a = 3, b = -2 and c= 1
Putting values and solving:
So, solving the expression we get:
Answer:
look at explanation (I go down the first column of scenarios and then move on to the right column)
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The first one will be same as original because the decrease and increase are the same, and happen right after each other so you get the same amount
2) Second one you get greater than original. You're doubling the initial value, and then decreasing by a smaller percentage, so you still get greater than your initial value
3) Third you get greater than original. You're adding 50% of the initial value, and decreasing by 33.5% of the new value, which will still give you more than the original
4) Fourth, you get greater than original. You're adding 60% of the initial value, and then decreasing by 40% of the new value, which will still give you greater than the initial value
5) Fifth you get less than the original. You're decreasing by 75%, and then adding 50% of the new value, which still gives you less than the initial value
The graph shows us that the slope of f(x) is -2. Now we gotta find the slope of g(x) to compare it to that of f(x). The equation of g(x) is in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept), so the slope is given to us for that one as well: it's -6. A line with a slope of -6 will be steeper than a line with a slope of -3, therefore the answer is B - the slope of f(x) is less than the slope of g(x).
Hope this helps.
