Which function described below has the greatest rate of change? I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST​

Mathematics

Answer:

C III

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of a linear function is the slope.

f(x) = mx + b is the equation of a linear function whose graph is a straight line. m is the slope.

I f(x) = 4x - 3;   m = slope = 4

II f(x) = 1/2 x + 5;   m = slope = 1/2

III We can use two points to find the slope.

Let's use points (1, 6) and (2, 12).

m = slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2  x1) = (12 - 6)/(2 - 1) = 6/1 = 6

The three slopes are 4, 1/2, 6.

The greatest rate of change is 6, so the answer is C III.

Recycling one glass bottle can save enough energy to power an oven for 7.5 minutes. A glass bottle weighs 500 grams. Glass used
musickatia [10]

This is a units conversion problem: you have time and you want to convert that to money. Any units conversion problem involves multiplication by 1 in various forms. When you are given 7.5 min = 1 bottle = 500g, you know that (500 g)/(7.5 min) = 1 because the numerator and denominator are equal. (Of course, you are aware that 500 g = 0.500 kg.) The idea is to choose the forms of 1 that cause units you don't want to cancel, leaving only the units you do want.


6\,h\times \dfrac{0.500\,kg}{7.5\,min}\times \dfrac{60\,min}{1\,h}\times \dfrac{5\,p}{1\,kg}\\\\=\dfrac{6\cdot 0.500\cdot 60\cdot 5\,p}{7.5\cdot 1\cdot 1}=120\,p


The glass for recycling that would save enough energy to power an oven for 6 hours costs 120p.

Find the y-intercept of the line -4× - 2y =16​
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

The y intercept is (0,-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y intercept, set x = 0 and solve for y

-4x -2y = 16

-4(0) -2y =16

-2y = 16

Divide by -2

-2y/-2 = 16/-2

y = -8

The y intercept is (0,-8)
