Mathematics
1 answer:
bezimeni [28]3 years ago
6 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that in a linear function of the form f(x)=mx+b, m is the slope and b is the why intercept.

Part A. Since g(x)=2x+6, its slope is 2 and its y-intercept is 6

Now, to find the slope of f(x) we are using the slope formula:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

where

m is the slope

(x_1,y_1) are the coordinates of the first point

(x_2,y_2) are the coordinates of the second point

From the table the first point is (-1, -12) and the second point is (0, -6)

Replacing values:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\frac{-6--(12)}{0-(-1)}

m=\frac{-6+12}{0+1}

m=6

The slope of f(x) is bigger than the slope of g(x), which means the line represented by f(x) is stepper than the line represented by g(x).

Part B. To find the y-intercept of f(x) we are taking advantage of the fact that the y-intercept of a linear function occurs when x = 0, so we just need to look in the table for the value of f(x) when x = 0. From the table f(x)=-6 when x=0; therefore the y-intercept of f(x) is -6.

We already know that the y-intercept of g(x) is 2. Since 2 is bigger than -6, function g(x) has a greater y-intercept.

Points scored in a basketball game vary directly with shots taken. If a player scores 50 points and takes 40
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

She would have scored 75 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Points scored in a basketball game vary directly with shots taken.

This means that this question can be solved by proportions, using a rule of three.

How many would she have scored if she takes 60 shots?

Using a rule of three:

50 points - 40 shots

x points - 60 shots

Applying cross multiplication:

40x = 50*60

Dividing both sides by 40

x = 50*1.5 = 75

She would have scored 75 points.
