Answer:

-5 - h  

Step-by-step explanation:

ƒ(x) = 1 + 5x - x²

[f(5 + h) -f(5)]/h

= [1 + 5(5 + h) - (5 + h)² - 1 - 5(5) +5²]/h

= (25 + 5h - 25 - 10h - h² - 25 + 25)/h

= (-5h - h²)/h

= -5 - h

The difference quotient is -5 - h.

Given the system of equations, what is the x-coordinate of the solution?
Nimfa-mama [501]
Answer: Choice C) -11

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

Explanation:

The first equation given is y = 3 - 1/2x
In other words, y is the same as 3 - 1/2x. 
We can replace y in the second equation with 3 - 1/2x
This is known as substitution (think of a substitute teacher who is a temporary replacement for your teacher)

Doing this leads to...
3x+4y = 1
3x+4*y = 1
3x+4*( y ) = 1
3x+4*( 3 - 1/2x ) = 1 <<--- y has been replaced with 3-1/2x
3x+4*(3) +4*(-1/2x) = 1
3x+12-2x = 1
3x-2x+12 = 1
x+12 = 1
x+12-12 = 1-12 <<-- subtracting 12 from both sides
x = -11
Which is why the answer is choice C) -11
