Answer:
A) is a function
B) f(x) is greater
C) x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
A) Yes, the relation is a function.
A function has a unique input value for each output value. There are no repeated x-values, so this relation is a function.
__
B) The table says y=6 for x=6.
f(6) = 2(6)+16 = 28
f(x) has a greater value for x=6.
__
C) Substituting the given information, we have ...
40 = 2x +16
24 = 2x
12 = x
The value of x is 12 when f(x) is 40.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Find zeros first:</u>
- x² + x - 6 = x² + 3x - 2x - 6 = x(x + 3) - 2(x + 3) = (x - 2)(x + 3)
- x = 2, x = -3, x = 7 (but x ≠ 7 as no division by zero)
<u>We have 4 intervals:</u>
- x ≤ - 3, three negatives, the result is negative or zero
- -3 ≤ x ≤ 2, two negatives and one positive, the result is positive or zero
- 2 ≤ x < 7, two positives and one negative, the result is negative or zero
- x > 7, three positives, the result is positive or zero
<u>The solution is:</u>
Correct choice is A
Let [a, b] = the interval
The average rate of change can be found by using [f(b) - f(a)]/(b - a).
Let a = 1 and b = 5.
Let R = rate of change
17- x^2
R = [17 - 5^2] - [17 - 1^2]/(5 - 1)
R = [17 - 25] -[17 - 1]/4
R = [(-8) - (16)]/4
R = (-24)/4
R = -6
Done.
