One and a fourth bags of popcorn
For each, you'll use the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
For function f, you'll use the two points (1,6) and (2,12) since x ranges from x = 1 to x = 2 for function f
The slope through these two points is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (12-6)/(2-1)
m = 6/1
m = 6
-------------------------------------------
For function g, you'll use (2,4) and (3,20)
The slope through these two points is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (20-4)/(3-2)
m = 16/1
m = 16
-------------------------------------------
For function h, you'll use (0,-6) and (2,-18). The y coordinates can be found by plugging in x = 0 and x = 2 respectively into h(x)
The slope through these two points is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-18-(-6))/(2-0)
m = (-18+6)/(2-0)
m = (-12)/(2)
m = -6
-------------------------------------------
The order from left to right is: h, f, g
Answer:
X = -2 and 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Move all of the terms to one side and set the equation to 0:
2x^2-14x+40-3x^2+16x-32 = 0
Then combine all like terms which would look like the following:
-x^2 + 2x + 8=0
Change the signs on both sides of the equation:
x^2 - 2x - 8 =0
Write -2x as a difference:
x^2 + 2x - 4x -8 = 0
Factor the expression:
x(x+2) x 4(x+2)=0
Factor out x+2 from the equation:
(x+2) (x-4)=0
Split into classes and then find the answer from there:
x+2=0
x-4=0
