Answer:
A. linear expression
Step-by-step explanation:
Just got it right on the test.
Linear functions have to have the same slope between any 2 points
find the slope betwen them
slope betwen 2 points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
(y1-y1)/(x2-x1)
given
(1,12) and (3,9)
slope=(9-12)/(3-1)=-3/2
if we wanted to chek furthere, we check (3,9) and (5,6) and fnd that the slope is also -3/2
so
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=yint
y=-3/2x+b
find b
if x=1 then y=12
12=-3/2+b
add 3/2 both sides
12+3/2=b
13+1/2=b
26/2+1/2=b
27/2=b
y=-3/2x+27/2
try them
we have 2 x values
7 and 3
input them and see their outputs
for x=7
y=-3/2(7)+27/2
y=-21/2+27/2
y=6/2
y=3
(7,3) is a valid point
for x=3
hold a second, we already have a x=3
it is (3,9)
none of them
answer is (7,3)
Answer:
100
Step-by-step explanation:
it is a bit unclear to me, what that problem description means.
if I understand it correctly, than z is directly depending on x².
so, z = 16 for x = 2. x² = 4
I pondered a little bit, as there are several possibilities to connect 16 with 4 as a driving factor (e.g. 2⁴ = 16, 4×4 = 16, 12 + 4 = 16).
I decided to go with the simplest interpretation with the usual meaning of "varies" (multiplication) : 4×x²
that would mean
z = 4×x² = 4×5² = 4×25 = 100
