Jackie wants to justify that f(x) = 2x - 6 is a linear function.

Lets assume some values for x  and find out f(x)

We make a table with x values 1, 2, 3, 4 and find f(x)

To find f(x) we plug in x  value in the given equation

x        f(x)

1          2(1)-6 = -4

2         2(2)-6 = -2

3          2(3)-6 = 0

14         2(4)-6 =2

for f(x) we got -4, -2, 0 , 2

The value of f(x) is increasing by 2. There is a constant increase in f(x)

When there is a constant rate of increase then it is a linear function

constant rate of increase that is slope = 2. Hence f(x) = 2x -6 is a linear function.

Rainbow [258]

Answer:   $21.20

Step-by-step explanation:

first, find the profit carmen makes on each pie

12.99 - 8.75 = 4.24

now, we multiply that by the 5 pies that she sold to see what profit she made

4.24 x 5 = 21.2

$21.20

You can do 5+5+10, 6+6+8, 9+9+2, 4+4+12, 3+3+14, 2+2+16, 1+1+18. I believe these are all of them, so there are 7 ways.

Using the discriminant, describe the nature of the roots for the equation <br> 49x^2 − 28x + 4 = 0.
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Put the equation in standard form by bringing the 4x + 1 to the left side.

7x2 - 4x - 1 = 0

We use the discriminant to determine the nature of the roots of a quadratic equation. The discriminant is the expression underneath the radical in the quadratic formula: b2 - 4ac.

b2 - 4ac In this case, a = 7, b = -4, and c = -1

(-4)2 - 4(7)(-1)

16 + 28 = 44

Now here are the rules for determining the nature of the roots:

(1) If the discriminant = 0, then there is one real root (this omits the ± from the quadratic formula, leaving only one possible solution)

(2) If the discriminant > 0, then there are two real roots (this keeps the ±, giving you two solutions)

(3) If the discriminant < 0, then there are two imaginary roots (this means there is a negative under the radical, making the solutions imaginary)

44 > 0, so there are two real roots
