Answer:

x=6.7

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem is necessary to perform basic operations in order to reduce the amount of work.

This means that we need to sum coefficients of 'x' in boths side of equations, and do the same thing to free terms.

Therefore, The expression 0.3+1.4(x+1)=4.4x+8.3-3x, becomes

0.3+1.4(x+1)=4.4x+8.3-3x

1.4x+1.7=1.1x+8.3

Lets isolate x variable in one side of equality sign

1.4x+1.1x=8.3+1.7

1.5x=10

x=10/1.5

Which function has the greatest rate of change? A. x y 3 3 4 6 5 9 B. y = 4 + 6x C. 12x + 6y = 18 D. A linear function that goes

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

B. y = 4 + 6x

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the rate of change of a straight line is equal to the slope of the line.

Now, the general form of a straight line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Also, the slope of a line joined by $( x_{1},y_{1} )$ and $( x_{2},y_{2} )$ is given by $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$ .

So, using these, we will find the slopes of the lines given in the options.

A. Here, we are given two points (3,3) and (4,6). Then, the slope is given by,

$m_{1}=\frac{6-3}{4-3}$ i.e. $m_{1}=3$ .

B. We have the equation of line y = 4 + 6x. On comparing it with the general form, we get that the slope is 6 i.e. $m_{2}=6$ .

C. We are given the standard form of a line. First, we convert it into the slope-intercept form ( or the general form ).

i.e. 12x + 6y = 18 → 2x + y = 3 → y = -2x + 3

Now, on comparing this equation with the general form of a line, we get that the slope is -2. i.e. $m_{3}=-2$ .

D. Here, we are given a linear function passing through (1,-1) and (0,4). Then the slope is given by,

$m_{1}=\frac{4+1}{0-1}$ i.e. $m_{4}=-5$ .

Hence, we obtain that the function y=4+6x has the greatest slope or the greatest rate of change i.e. $m_{2}=6$ .

Please help with this algebra question

blagie [28]

Do you know how to graph the equation 2x-1?

If you do then graph it.

After, check the inequality - it is Y is less than the equation so you will be filling in everything below the line you graphed

IF you don't know how to graph:
You will have a line that goes up 2 then right 1

The equation is really 2/1 x as in 2 right 1 right

The line will start from y=-1 or 1 right below 0,0 because of the -1 at the end of the equation and the line will travel in both direction for infinity (Or as big as the graph is)

So start at y=-1 then go up 2, right 1 and place a point. Keep doing that (down 2 left 1 when going in the opposite direction) Finally just make a line through all those points you made
