Answer:

A Linear Function is any function that graphs to any straight line. It can be consist of one or 2 or more variables but the degree or the exponent value of the variable shouldn't be greater than 1. it can be 0 but not greater than one .

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= y= a +bx , is the example of linear fucntion where the variable x has the exponent value of 1 ,

but the function f(x)= y= a+bx^2 is not a linear function because the exponent value of variable x is 2 .

Also if the Value of Exponent of the variable is in negative, that will be also a non linear function .

The speedometer in Kevin's car reads in both miles/hour and kilometers/hour. What information is needed to convert between these

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

a) the number of miles in 1 kilometer

Step-by-step explanation:

The car converts from miles/hour to kilometers/hour, if we see the time measurement (hours) it stays the same in both units.

So to make the conversion<u> it is enough to know how many miles are in one kilometer.</u>

For example, lets convert 10miles/hour to kilometers/hour.

there are 0.621371 miles in 1 kilometer, so if we divide 10miles/hour by 0.621371 we get kilometers/hour units:

$\frac{10miles}{hour} (\frac{1kilometer}{0.621371miles} )=16.0934\frac{kilometers}{hour}$

Thus to make the conversion between the two units is needed the number of miles in 1 kilometer.

the difference of two numbers is negative ten. seven times the first plus seven times the second is negative fourteen.

Kaylis [27]

X-y=-10
x=-10-y

7x+7y=-14
7(-10-y)+7y=-14
-70-7y+7y=-14
0y=56
y=0

x=-10-y
x=-10-0
x=-10

I’m not 100% sure if this is right, so I hope someone checks this over :)
