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.

Point A has coordinate A(3, 2). The point is rotated 180° clockwise about the origin. What is the x-coordinate of point A’?
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A 180 degree rotation around the origin would be the same things as a reflection across the x-axis followed by a reflection across the y-axis.

This would result in the new location being (-3, -2)  The x coordinate is -3.

A students work to simplify a radical is shown below. Select the statemmebt which best applies to rhe sample mathematical work
Alik [6]

Answer:

D. The work shown above is correct, and y^5\sqrt[4]{y^3} may not be simplified further.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add all the exponents of y in first line then we get

4+4+4+4+4+3=23

Which is same as the exponent in original problem.

So first line is good.

Since it is 4th root so each y^4 will turn into y when it moves out of the radical so final answer is correct.

Hence correct choice is "D. The work shown above is correct, and y^5\sqrt[4]{y^3} may not be simplified further." is the correct answer.
