Answer:

= -18/2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope by using the following

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (-12-6)/(3.75 - 1.5)

   = -18/2.25

Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Point A = (1.5, 6)

Point B = (3.75, -12)

Slope measures the steepnees of a line.

Formula

slope = m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

-Asign values to x1, y1, x2 and y2

    x1 = 1.5  y1  = 6  x2 = 3.75  y2 = -12

-Substitution

          m = (-12 - 6) / (3.75 - 1.5)

-Simplification

          m = -18 / 2.25

-Result

         m = 8

It is possible to simplify more the result so slope = 8.

Geraldine is asked to explain the limits on the range of an exponential equation using the function f(x) = 2^x. She makes these
GalinKa [24]

<u>General Idea:</u>

Domain is the values of x which gives a defined output to the function, and Range is the values of y that we get by substituting domain values of x. For the function f(x) = a^x, where a > 0, the domain will be all real numbers and range will be all values greater than 0. That is the graph will be very close to x-axis but will never touch it.

<u>Applying the concept:</u>

From the attached table, we can notice that as x increases infinitely, the y-values are continually doubled for each single increase in x and as x decreases infinitely, the y-values are continually halved for each single decrease in x.

Option 1: "Statement 1 is incorrect because the y-values are increased by 2, not doubled".

Option 1 is INCORRECT because Statement 1 is TRUE & CORRECT.

Option 2: "Statement 2 is incorrect because the y-values are doubled, not halved".

Option 2 is INCORRECT because Statement 2 is TRUE & CORRECT.

Option 3: "The conclusion is incorrect because the range is limited to the set of the integers"

Option 3 is INCORRECT because, the range will be always greater than 0, because irrespective of how many times y is halved for each single decrease in x, the y will still be a positive fraction and won't be a negative.

Option 4: "The conclusion is incorrect because the range is limited to the set of positive real numbers"

<em><u>Option 4 is CORRECT because y value will be positive irrespective of whatever x we substitute in the function.</u></em>

For function of g,g(0)=1 and g(1)=5 assuming g is a linear function what is g(3)<br>​
lawyer [7]

Answer:

g(3) = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

g(0) = 1

g(1) = 5

Required

Find g(3)

Since g(x) is a linear function, then:

g(x) = mx + c

For: g(0) = 1

g(x) = mx + c

g(0) = m*0 + c

1 = 0 + c

1 = c

c = 1

For: g(1) = 5

g(x) = mx + c

g(1) = m * 1 + c

5 = m * 1 + c

5 = m + c

Substitute c = 1

5 = m + 1

m = 5 - 1

m =4

So, the function is:

g(x) = mx + c

g(x) = 4x + 1

Calculate g(3)

g(3) = 4*3 + 1

g(3) = 12 + 1

g(3) = 13
