Let f be a linear function such that f(2) =5 and f(6) = -1. find an equation for f(x).

Using f(x) = y, we know that a graph of the function contains the (x,y) points (2,5) and (6,-1). first find the slope of that line,
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) ⇒ -6/4⇒-3/2

then using either point (I'll use the first one) solve for b in y = mx + b.
5 = (-3/2)(2) + b⇒ 5 = -3 + b⇒ 8 = b.

So y = (-3/2)x + 8 ⇒ f(x) = (-3/2)x + 8.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines l and m are the parallel lines and 't' is a transversal line,

Therefore, ∠1 ≅ ∠5 [Corresponding angle postulate]

∠5 ≅ ∠7 [Vertical angles theorem]

∠1 ≅ ∠7 [Transitive property]

Therefore, ∠1 ≅ ∠7 [Alternate exterior angles theorem]

What is the angle of rotation of the minute hand of a clock moving from 6:10 to 7:00?
igomit [66]
Because the movement of the minute han of a clock is clockwise ↓, then the angle of rotation will be negative.

1) we calculate the number of minutes from 6:10 to 7:00

number of minutes=7:00-6:10=6:60 - 6:10=50 minutes.

2)
We know that:
60 minutes of a clock have turned -360º
Then:

60 minutes of a clock------------------------- -360º
50 minutes of a clock-------------------------      x

x=(50 minutes of a clock * (-360º))/60 minutes of a clock=-300º


Answer:  A. -300º

X +30=2X-4 <br> solve x<br><br><br><br> .<br> .
MArishka [77]

Answer: X = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

x+30=2x−4

Step 1: Subtract 2x from both sides.

x+30−2x=2x−4−2x

−x+30=−4

Step 2: Subtract 30 from both sides.

−x+30−30=−4−30

−x=−34

Step 3: Divide both sides by -1.

−x

−1

=

−34

−1
