Answer:
its either $8.34 or $8
Step-by-step explanation:
the rate of change is -2 for every set shown in the chart on the right
so 6 to 7 would be -11 -2 = -13
7 to 8 would be -13-2 = -15
8 to 9 = -15-2 = -17
B is the answer
Answer:
f(5) = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
You look on the x-axis for 5 because f(5) means let x = 5. Then go down to the graph (the red zig-zaggy line) At the red line (you're still directly under the 5) look over to the y-axis to find the value. That's your answer. It is -2. The point (5, -2) is on the red graph.
f(5) = -2
So anytime we have a slope and want to find the slope of a perpendicular line, we just have to remember a perpendicular line's slope is the negative reciprocal (reciprocal means flip the fraction). So if we had a slope of 3/4, the slope perpendicular to it would be - 4/3.
First we need to find our slope, to do this we take the change in y over the change in x like so:
(15-12)/(4-7) = - 3/4
The slope perpendicular to this is 4/3.
