Answer:

Slope = $\frac{5}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can define the slope as the "change in y values" divided by the "change in x values".

By change in, we mean, 2nd point MINUS the first point values.

The points given is:

(1,4) & (-1,-1)

Change in y value:

-1 - 4 = -5

Change in x value:

-1 -1 = -2

Slope is -5/-2 = 5/2

There is no answer choice. The correct answer is 5/2

State of the given functions are inverses. Part 3. NO LINKS!!!!

Effectus [21]

Answer:

h(x)=-x-1

let y =-x-1

interchanging role of x & y

x=-y-1

y=-x-1

h-¹(x)=-x-1

again

f(x)=(2-3x)/2

let

y=(2-3x)/2

interchanging role of x & y

x=(2-3y)/2

2x-2=-3y

y=(2-2x)/3

f-¹(x)=(2-2x)/3

Given function are not inverse of each other.

10.

f(x)=-x+3

let y=-x+3

interchanging role of x & y

x=-y+3

y=3-x

f-¹(x)=-x+3

equal to g(x)=-x+3

Given function are inverse of each other.

Percent increase = ((new number - original number) / (original number)) x 100.

percent increase = ((3000 - 2500) / 2500)) x 100 =
(500 / 2500)....x 100 =
0.2 x 100 =
