Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Problem One (left panel)
<em><u>Question A</u></em>
- The y intercept happens when x = 0
- That being said, the y intercept is 50. It was moving when the timing began.
<em><u>Question B</u></em>
The rate of change = (56 - 52)/(3 - 1) = 4/2 = 2 miles / hour^2 (you have a slight acceleration.
<em><u>Question C</u></em>
- 60 = a + (n-1)d
- 60 = 50 + (n - 1)*2
- 10/2 = (n - 1)*2/2
- 5 = n - 1
- 6 = n
The way I have done it the domain is n from 1 to 6
Question 2 (Right Panel)
<em><u>Question A</u></em>
The equation for the table is f(x) = 3x - 3 which was derived simply by putting all three points into y = ax + b and solving.
- f(0) = ax + b
- -3 = a*0) + b
- b = - 3
- So far what you have is
- f(x) = ax - 3
- f(-1) = a*(-1) - 3 but we know (f(-1)) = -6
- - 6 = a(-1) - 3 add 3 to both sides
- -6 +3 = a(-1) -3 + 3
- -3 = a*(-1) Divide by - 1
- a = 3
- f(x) = 3x - 3 Answer for f(x)
- The slope of f(x) = the coefficient in front of the x
- f(x) has a slope of 3
- g(x) has a slope of 4
<em><u>Part B</u></em>
- f(x) has a y intercept of - 3
- g(x) has a y intercept of -5
- f(x) has the greater y intercept.
- -3 > - 5
Answer:
360 grams of cereal
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have to do 540 times 8 to find out how many grams of cereal he ate over the eight weeks.
Then you have to divide the answer by 12 to get 360 grams of cereal.
I hope this helped ;)
Answer:
2 solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
I like to use a graphing calculator to find solutions for equations like these. The two solutions are ...

To solve this algebraically, it is convenient to subtract 2x-7 from both sides of the equation:
3x(x -4) +5 -x -(2x -7) = 0
3x^2 -12x +5 -x -2x +7 = 0 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
3x^2 -15x +12 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
3(x -1)(x -4) = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . factor
The values of x that make these factors zero are x=1 and x=4. These are the solutions to the equation. There are two solutions.

<em>Alternate method</em>
Once you get to the quadratic form, you can find the number of solutions without actually finding the solutions. The discriminant is ...
d = b^2 -4ac . . . . where a, b, c are the coefficients in the form ax^2+bx+c
d = (-15)^2 -4(3)(12) = 225 -144 = 81
This positive value means the equation has 2 real solutions.
Answer: Step-by-step explanation:
57 - 10x = 45
-10x=-12
x=1.2
- 3y + 10x = -5
-3y+10=-5
-3y=-15
y=5
