Select all that apply. In a linear function: Δy = 0 Δx = 0 Δy = n Δx = n Δy = -n Δx = -n

1 answer:

3 0

Answers: All the options are right and have a special meaning.

Explanation:

1) Δy = 0

Means y is constant, which is also that the slope is zero.

The function is a horizontal line (paralell to the x-axis)

2) Δx = 0

Means x is constant, the slope is not defined (∞).

The function is a vertical line (parallel to the y-axis)

3) Δy = n

Means that the change in y is constant. So, only if the change in x is also constant the slope is constant and the function is linear.

This is because the slope is Δy / Δx.

4) Δx = n

Means the change in x is constant. So, only if Δy is constant it is a linear function, for the same reason explained above

5) Δy = -n and and 6) Δx = -n

Same reasoning of 3 and 4.

lyudmila [28]

Since y must equal both 3x+2 and x-4, we deduce that 3x+2 and x-4 must equal each other. So, we have

$3x+2=x-4 \iff 2x+2=-4 \iff 2x=-6 \iff x=-3$

How do you do this math problem?? BRAINLEST for anyone who helps and explains!!

guapka [62]

Answer:

It is angle k and angle l

Step-by-step explanation:

When opposite sides are given, especially for a right triangle, the longer the length the bigger the angle. The hypotenuse, which is across the right angle is always longest. The shortest side will always have the smallest angle. Check the image if it helps.

Raychel drove to the mountains last week there was heavy traffic on the way there and on the trip took 12 hours when Raychel dro

nevsk [136]

Suppose that this person drives at r mph going to the mountains, and gets there in 12 hours. Returning, this person drives at (r+20) mph and gets home in 8 hours. We don't know the distance yet, but can solve for the initial speed, r, by setting

d = 12r = (r+20)(8). Solving for r, r=40 mph (going) and (40+20)mph = 60 mph (returning. Since d=12 r, d = (12 hrs)(40 mph) = 480 miles (answer).

sergeinik [125]

24ft/s for the 1st second then it'd be 9.8mp/s which is the speed of velocity towards earth, so the 24ft/s - the 9.8 would be 14.2ft/s which is the second, the third would then be 4.4 after again subtracting 9.8. That is as far as I got, hope that helps even slightly
