Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A linear function in slope intercept form is equal to

$f(x)=mx+b$

where

m is the slope or unit rate

b is the y-intercept

x is the independent variable or input value

f(x) is the dependent variable or output value

In this problem we have

$f(m)=5+3m$

where

m is the number of miles

f(m) is the cab company's fare in dollars

we have that

In this context

<em>Slope</em>

The slope or unit rate is equal to the cost per mile for the riders trip

The slope is $3 per mile

<em>Y-intercept</em>

The y-intercept is the cost of the riders trip when the number of miles is equal to zero, also is called the initial value.

The y-intercept is $5

Select all the statements below that are true of the following graph of the polynomial.

Serggg [28]

To find:

We need to comment on the following points of the given graph:

Step by step solution:

1) Type of function (odd / even):

If the function is odd then the graph is symmetrical about the origin.

Upon observing this graph we can see that the given graph is symmetrical about the origin, So it is an odd function.

2) To check whether (x-2) is a factor of the equation:

If (x-2) is the factor of the equation, then x = 2 should be the root of the the equation

Upon observing the graph, we can see that the graph cut the x axis at x = 2, So (x-2) is the factor of the equation.

3) To check whether there are 5 zeroes or not:

If there are 5 zeroes of the graph, the graph should cut the x - axis for 5 times.

Upon observing the graph we can see that the graph cut the x - axis for 5 times, thus it has 5 zeroes.

4) To check whether there are same amount of relative minimums as relative maximums:

Upon observing the graph we can see that there are 2 relative minimums and 2 relative maximums.

So we can see that there are same amount of relative maximums and minimums.

5) To check whether there is a relative minimum at (-1,-3)

To have a relative minimum at (-1,-3) there should be a minima at (-1,-3)

Upon observing the graph we can see that there is no minima at (-1,-3), So it there is no relative minimum at (-1,-3)

From here we can say that, 1,2,3,4 are the 4 correct options for this equation.

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

$y\geq -\frac{2}{3} x-3\\
y\leq 3x+8$

$-\frac{2}{3} x-3=3x+8$

Add 2/3 x to both sides: $-3=\frac{11}{3}x+8$

Subtract 8 from both sides: $-11=\frac{11}{3}x$

Multiply both sides by 3: $-33=11x$

Divide both sides by 11: $x=-3$

Therefore, point of intersection between both lines is at point (-3, -1)
