Answer:

see the explanation

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$y=3x+4$

This is a linear equation (the graph is a line)

The y-intercept is the point (0,4) ---> value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

The x-intercept is the point (-4/3,0) ---> value of x when the value of y is equal to zero)

The slope is m=3

If the slope is changed to m=1/3

we have

$y=(1/3)x+4$

This is a linear equation too (the graph is a line)

The y-intercept is the point (0,4) ---> is the same

The x-intercept is the point (-12,0) ---> the x-intercept is different

The slope is m=1/3

The second line becomes a lot less steep

Remember that the slope is the ratio between the rise and the run

In the first line the ratio rise/run is 4/1

In the second line the ratio rise/run is 1/3

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

What is the value of K?

Ksju [112]

Answer: The value of k for which one root of the quadratic equation kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0 is six times the other is k = 3.
Let's look into the solution step by step.

Explanation:

Given: A quadratic equation, kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0

Let the two zeros of the equation be α and β.

According to the given question, if one of the roots is α the other root will be 6α.

Thus, β = 6α

Hence, the two zeros are α and 6α.

We know that for a given quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0

The sum of the zeros is expressed as,

α + β = - b / a

The product of the zeros is expressed as,

αβ = c / a

For the given quadratic equation kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0,

a = k, b = -14, c = 8

The sum of the zeros is:

α + 6α = 14 / k [Since the two zeros are α and 6α]

⇒ 7α = 14 / k

⇒ α = 2 / k --------------- (1)

The product of the zeros is:

⇒ α × 6α = 8 / k [Since the two zeros are α and 6α]

⇒ 6α 2 = 8 / k

⇒ 6 (2 / k)2 = 8 / k [From (1)]

⇒ 6 × (4 / k) = 8

⇒ k = 24 / 8

⇒ k = 3

Which of the following rational functions is graphed below?

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The correct option is D.

i.e.

$f\left(x\right)=\frac{1}{x\left(x+4\right)}$ is the correct option.

The correct graph is shown in attached figure.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\frac{1}{x\left(x+4\right)}$

$\mathrm{Domain\:of\:}\:\frac{1}{x\left(x+4\right)}\::\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:x$

$\mathrm{Range\:of\:}\frac{1}{x\left(x+4\right)}:\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:f\left(x\right)\le \:-\frac{1}{4}\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:f\left(x\right)>0\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:(-\infty \:,\:-\frac{1}{4}]\cup \left(0,\:\infty \:\right)\end{bmatrix}$

$\mathrm{Axis\:interception\:points\:of}\:\frac{1}{x\left(x+4\right)}:\quad \mathrm{None}$

$\mathrm{Extreme\:Points\:of}\:\frac{1}{x\left(x+4\right)}:\quad \mathrm{Maximum}\left(-2,\:-\frac{1}{4}\right)$

So, the correct graph is shown in attached figure.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

i.e.

$f\left(x\right)=\frac{1}{x\left(x+4\right)}$ is the correct option.

A negatively charged balloon moves close to another balloon. They then repel each other. What can be said about the other balloo

lana66690 [7]

Answer: B: It has a negative charge.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to theory espoused by the French physicist, Charles-Augustin de Coulomb, like charges charges will repel each other and unlike charges will attract one another.

This means that objects with negative charges will repel each other. As the first balloon in the question was negatively charged, it would only repel the other balloon if it was negatively charged as well.
