Use the linear slope formula to solve for m: 

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

using the points (-1,1) and (1,5) you can find the slope for the first interval:
 
m=(5-1)/(1-(-1))
m=4/2
m=2

you can double check by using the same formula on the second interval, which is (1,5) to (3,9).

m=(9-5)/(3-1)
m=4/2
m=2 

therefore, the rate of change is 2.

Jaun's age, x, is 4 times his age 15 years ago
KIM [24]

The expression of the mathematical statement given as "Jaun's age, x, is 4 times his age 15 years ago" is x = 4 * (x - 15)

<h3>How to rewrite the statement as an expression?</h3>

The mathematical statement is given as

Jaun's age, x, is 4 times his age 15 years ago

From the statement, we have:

x represent Juan's current age

This means that his age 15 years ago is

15 years ago = x - 15

4 times his age 15 years ago is

4 * 15 years ago = 4 * (x - 15)

The above equation is equivalent to his current age

So, we have

x = 4 * (x - 15)

Hence, the expression of the mathematical statement given as "Jaun's age, x, is 4 times his age 15 years ago" is x = 4 * (x - 15)

Divide 12x 4 y 4 by 3x 2 y. A. 4x 6y 5 B. 4x 2y 3 C. 9x 6 D. 9x 2y 3
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

\frac{12x^4y^4}{3x^2y}=4x^2y^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider an element a\neq 0

We know that \frac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n}

Here, m and n are exponents and a is a base. Exponent refers to the no. of times a term is multiplied by itself. Another word for exponents is powers.

Other Properties of exponents:

a^m\times a^n=a^{m+n}\\a^0=1\\\left ( a^m \right )^n=a^{mn}

Here, we are required to divide 12x^4y^4 by 3x^2y.

Consider \frac{12x^4y^4}{3x^2y}

We will solve \frac{12}{3}\,,\,\frac{x^4}{x^2}\,,\,\frac{y^4}{y} separately.

Here,

\frac{12}{3}=4\\\frac{x^4}{x^2}=x^{4-2}=x^2\\\frac{y^4}{y}=y^3

So, \frac{12x^4y^4}{3x^2y}=4x^2y^3
