Solve the equation by replacing x with -7 and then -1.
Then subtract the two to find the difference and divide that by the difference between -7 and -1.
f(-7) = -7^2 + 2(-7) -8 = 49 -14 -8 = 27
f(-1) = -1^2 + 2(-1) -8 = 1 -2 - 8 = -9
Difference between 27 and -9 = -36
Difference between -1 and -7 = -6
Rate of change = -36 /-6 = 6
C. 1/root2
Based on the information, the hypotenuse will be 6root2 because it is a 45, 45, 90 triangle. The two legs will be 6. Using SOH CAH TOA, we know that for cosine, it will be adjacent/hypotenuse. The adjacent side is 6 and the hypotenuse is 6root2. The result will be (6)/(6root2). After simplifying, we get
1/root2.
First, we have to solve for x by isolating it on one side.
6x + 10 = -8
(Subtract 10 from both sides)
6x = -18
(Divide both sides by 6)
x = -3
On option C, x is on -3, so that would be the correct answer
Answer: 5
Steps:
5x - 2y = 30
5(8) - 2y = 30
40 - 2y = 30
-2y = 30 - 40
-2y = -10
y = -10/-2
y = 5
I would appreciate the brainliest if this answer was correct and the steps were clear and helpful! :)
