Let <em>f(x)</em> = <em>x</em>³ + <em>x</em> - 5. <em>f(x)</em> is a polynomial so it's continuous everywhere on its domain (all real numbers). Since
<em>f</em> (1) = 1³ + 1 - 5 = -3 < 0
and
<em>f</em> (2) = 2³ + 2 - 5 = 5 > 0
it follows by the intermediate value theorem that there at least one number <em>x</em> = <em>c</em> between 1 and 2 for which <em>f(c)</em> = 0.
The number to which a base is raised to is called the _exponent_ This tells you how many times to multiply the base together.
The first one would be approximately -0.8. It has a negative slope and the data points are fairly close together.
The second one is almost a straight line so it would be very close to 1. I would say 0.97
The closer the data is to a straight line the closer the r value is to 1 or negative 1.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
JKLM is a parallelogram
Explanation:
The slope m of a line through two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)is given by the formula:
m=Δy/Δx=y2-y1/x2-x1
So the slopes of the sides of our quadrilateral are:
mJK=(−1)−24−(−3)=−37
mKL=(−5)−(−1)2−4=2
mLM=(−2)−(−5)−5−2=−37
mMJ=2−(−2)(−3)−(−5)=2
So JK is parallel to LM and KL is parallel to MJ
So JKLM is a parallelogram.
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
The smallest positive factor is 1
But not 0 because 0 is not positive nor negative
