Answer:

The slope is -0.89 and the y-intercept is (0, -3.05).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope and y-intercept, convert the equation to y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept.

Convert the equation by rearranging the terms using inverse operations.

-1.7x - 1.9y = 5.8 Add 1.7x to both sides.

+1.7x +1.7x

------------------------------------

-1.9y = 5.8 + 1.7x Divide both sides by -1.9.

y= - 0.89 x - 3.05

This is now in y=mx+b and m=-0.89 and b=-3.05.

The slope is -0.89 and the y-intercept is (0, -3.05).

25% of x is 30<br><br>x=? <br>please help!!!

Nesterboy [21]

25% of 30 can be found by converting 25% to a decimal and multiplying it by 30.

25% = 0.25

30x0.25=7.5

So x is 7.5.

1. Consider f(x) = 3x - 5

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the function

$f(x)=3x-5$

We want to find the following ratio:

$\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$

Note that the limit of this for $h\rightarrow 0$ is equivalent to the derivative of the function.

Here we have:

$f(x+h)=3(x+h)-5=3x+3h-5$

And

$f(x)=3x-5$

Therefore we have

$f(x+h)-f(x)=3x+3h-5-(3x-5)=3h$

And therefore,

$\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}=\frac{3h}{h}=3$

Given f(x) = $(4 – x} , what is the value of F (16)?

stiks02 [169]

Step-by-step explanation:

Did you mean :

f(x) = 5(4 - x)

f(16) = 5(4 - 16)

f(16) = 5(-12)

f(16) = -60
