Hi there! Hopefully this helps!

<h2 /><h2>Answer: 18</h2><h2>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~</h2><h2 />

First we need to substitute the value of the variable into the expression.

$b^{2}+3(2x-y)$ = $3^{2} + 3 (2(4)-5)$ .

Now we need to solve $3^{2} + 3 (2(4)-5)$ .

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

$3^{2} + 3 (2(4)-5)$

First, calculate 3 to the power of 2 and get 9.

$9+3(2\times 4-5)=18$

Multiply 2 and 4 to get 8.

$9+3(8-5) =18$

Subtract 5 from 8 to get 3.

$9+3\times 3 =18$

Multiply 3 and 3 to get 9.

$9+9 =18$ .

<h2>And the answer is, you guessed it, 18!</h2>

Is the following graph a function

daser333 [38]

You can use the vertical line test to determine if the graph is a function.

A function must: for every x value have only one y value.

Vertical line test: if you draw a bunch of vertical lines each line only touches the graph once.

So a circle would not be a function, or a horizontally facing parabola, etc... Remember, if you draw a vertical line "|" and it touches the graph more than once at any point then it is not a function.

Now take a look at the graph in the question.
In this graph if we do the vertical line test there are no place where a vertical line touches the graph twice so this graph is indeed a function.

This means your answer is C. Yes

The graph shows the attendance at a hockey game, and the rate at which the fans enter and exit the

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, we can see that both segment 1 and segment 2 are positive slopes (as the time increases, the number of people increases)

Segment 1 is more steep than segment 2 (the number of people increases in segment 1 more than segment 2). This means that the number of people entering the arena in segment 1 was higher than the rate of people entering the arena in segment 2.
