Answer:
C is the right answer I think
Answer:
-5/2 x -33/4
Step-by-step explanation:
(-11/2 x + 3) -2 (-11/4 x -5/2)
(-11/2 x + 3/1) -2 (-11/4 x -5/2)
The LCM of 2 and 1 is 2, and the LCM of 4 and 2 is 4.
(-11/2 x + 6/2) -2 (-11/4 x -20/4)
( -5/2x) -2 (-31/4)
-5/2x -2 -31/4
-5/2x -2/1 -31/4
LCM of -2 -31/4 is 4
-2/4 -31/4
-33/4
-5/2x -33/4 in simplest form.
Jackie wants to justify that f(x) = 2x - 6 is a linear function.
Lets assume some values for x and find out f(x)
We make a table with x values 1, 2, 3, 4 and find f(x)
To find f(x) we plug in x value in the given equation
x f(x)
1 2(1)-6 = -4
2 2(2)-6 = -2
3 2(3)-6 = 0
14 2(4)-6 =2
for f(x) we got -4, -2, 0 , 2
The value of f(x) is increasing by 2. There is a constant increase in f(x)
When there is a constant rate of increase then it is a linear function
constant rate of increase that is slope = 2. Hence f(x) = 2x -6 is a linear function.
