Does the equation y = x(x - 3) represent a linear function

Mathematics
1 answer:
Flauer [41]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

No. You can see why if you remove the brackets.

y=x^2 - 3x.

A linear function must have x and y with powers of 1. Also it can't something like x^2 - y^2 = 5

x^2 - y^2 = 0 is the only exception I can think of, but that really is a system of equations. If you graph it. you get two equations which cross at 0 and nowhere else.

isaacs new panoramic television is 40 inches and 9 inches high. what is the diagonal size of Isaac’s television?
jekas [21]

Answer:

41 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the diagonal length of his television, we can use the formula:

a² + b² = c²

Square the length and width of the TV then add them together. Then find the square root of the sum.

40² = 1600

9² = 81

1600 + 81 = 1681

√1681 = 41

100 POINTS PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!
Alika [10]

Answer: To clear an equation of decimals, multiply each term on both sides by the power of ten that will make all the decimals whole numbers. In our example above, if we multiply .25 by 100, we will get 25, a whole number. Since each decimal only goes to the hundredths place, 100 will work for all three terms.

So let's multiply each term by 100 to clear the decimals:

(100)0.25x + (100)0.35 = (100)(-0.29)

25x + 35 = -29

Now we can solve the equation as normal:

25x + 35 - 35 = -29 - 35

25x = -64

x = -2.56 Since the original was in decimal form, the answer should most likely also be in decimal form.

Let's look at one more:

1.75x + 4 = 6.2

We have to think a little more carefully about what multiple of ten to use here. 6.2 only needs to be multiplied by 10, but 1.25 needs 100, so we will multiply every term by 100. Don't forget to multiply the 4 by 100 as well.

(100)(1.75x) + (100)(4) = (100)(6.2)

175x + 400 = 620

We had to be extra careful as we multiplied by 100. Now we can solve the equation as normal:

175x + 400 - 400 = 620 - 400

175x = 220

x = 1.26
