X+2 < 7
Subtract both sides by 2
x < 5
Any value where x was less than 5 would be correct.
Answer:
-f(3x - 1) + 2 = -18x² + 12x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Find f(3x - 1)
f(3x - 1) = 2(3x - 1)² - 1
f(3x - 1) = 2(9x² - 6x + 1) - 1
f(3x - 1) = 18x² - 12x + 2 - 1
f(3x - 1) = 18x² - 12x + 1
Step 2: Plug in f(3x - 1)
-(18x² - 12x + 1) + 2
Step 3: Evaluate
-18x² + 12x - 1 + 2
-f(3x - 1) + 2 = -18x² + 12x + 1
Slope = rise/run = (change in y)/(change in x)
Slope = (4-6)/(0-(-4)) = (-2)/(4)
Slope = -1/2 = -0.5
What do you mean by without calculating?
