"T<u>he function is decreasing":</u>
This means the slope of the function will be negative at the given point. Anywhere the line is going down, from left to right, is decreasing. This eliminates choices A and C.
<u>"The function is concave down":</u>
This means the curve of the function will be open down (think of an upside down u). This eliminates choice E.
<u>"f(x)>0":</u>
This is anywhere the curve is above the x axis. This eliminates choice D.
The answer is Choice B) x=2.
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
1. multiplication property of equality
2. division property of equality
Step-by-step explanation:
1. multplied by -3/2
2. divided by -2/3
Rx - sx + y = b
WHEN SOLVING FOR X :
rx - sx + y = b
We must get x onto it's own side, so subtract y from both side.s
rx - sx = b - y
Then, factor out x.
x(r - s) = b - y
Then, divide both sides by (r - s).
x(r - s) ÷ (r - s) = b - y ÷ (r - s)
Simplify.
x = b - y / r - s →

WHEN SOLVING FOR Y :
rx - sx + y = b
We need to isolate y, so get rid of everything BUT y on the left side.
Subtract rx from both sides.
-sx + y = b - rx
Then, add sx to both sides.
y = b - rx + sx

It is not an equilateral triangle. To prove this, you must solve for x. I found x by setting 2x+5.2 = 3x+1.2 to get x=4. Then I plugged 4 into equation to see if they were equal. 2(4)+5.2= 13.2 and 3(4)+1.3=13.2 but 2(4)+6.2=14.2. This allows us to conclude that the triangle is not equilateral because all of the sides are NOT congruent. Hope that helped:))
