In the equation x=−3y, what is the unit rate?

1 answer:

6 0

The unit rate is -1/3.

In direct variation, y varies directly to x by a constant ratio k.

Its equation looks like this: y = kx ; where k stands for the constant ratio.

In the above equation. x = -3y, it should be converted to the proper equation. both sides must be transferred and its accompanying sign must be changed.

3y = -x
3y/3 = -x/3
y = (-1/3)x
where: y is the total value; -1/3 is the unit rate; and x is the number of units

-------------------------------\\\\
f(x)=5x^2-6x-3
\\\\\\
\lim\limits_{h\to 0}~\cfrac{[5(x+h)^2-6(x+h)-3]~~-~~(5x^2-6x-3)}{h}
\\\\\\
\lim\limits_{h\to 0}~\cfrac{[5(x^2+2xh+h^2)-6(x+h)-3]~~-~~5x^2+6x+3}{h}$

$\bf \lim\limits_{h\to 0}~\cfrac{\underline{5x^2}+10xh+5h^2\underline{-6x}-6h\underline{-3}~~~\underline{-5x^2+6x+3}}{h}
\\\\\\
\lim\limits_{h\to 0}~\cfrac{10xh+5h^2-6h}{h}\implies \lim\limits_{h\to 0}~\cfrac{\underline{h}(10x+5h-6)}{\underline{h}}
\\\\\\
\lim\limits_{h\to 0}~10x+5(0)-6\implies \lim\limits_{h\to 0}~10x-6$
