One meaning of a 'linear' equation is that if you draw the graph
of the equation, the graph will be a straight line.
That's an easy way to test the equation . . . find 3 points on the
graph, and see whether they're all in a straight line.
This equation is y = 4 / x .
To find a point on the graph, just pick any number for 'x',
and figure out the value of 'y' that goes with it.
Do that 3 times, and you've got 3 points on the graph.
Here ... I'll do 3 quick points:
Point-A: x = 1 y = 4 / 1 = 4
Point-B: x = 2 y = 4 / 2 = 2
Point-C: x = 4 y = 4 / 4 = 1
Look at this:
Slope of the line from point-A to point-B
= (change in 'y') / (change in 'x') = -2 .
Slope of the line from point-B to point-C
= (change in 'y') / (change in 'x') = -1/2 .
The two pieces of line from A-B and from B-C don't even have
the same slope, so they're not pieces of the same straight line !
So my points A, B, and C are NOT in a straight line.
So the equation is NOT linear.
Try it again with three points of your own.
Answer:
The value of A is 1, D is 0, E is -2 and F is 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is
...(1)
The standard form of the circle is
Where, (h,k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius.
It can be written as
....(2)
On comparing (1) and (2) we get.
Therefore the value of A is 1, D is 0, E is -2 and F is 0.
The set of whole numbers includes all the elements of the natural numbers plus the number zero (0).
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
A function is a set of points which never repeat x values. The only answer that follows that rule of a function is the last one, d.
Hope this helps! :D
