Answer:

The given table DOES NOT represent a linear function as there is NO CONSTANT change in x and y values.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table

x     -10       -14         -18         -24

y       6         10          16          24

  • A linear function has a constant change in x and a constant change in y values.

In order to determine whether the table represents the linear function or not, we need to check whether there is constant change in x and y.

It is clear that there is a NO constant change in x

i.e. -14-(-10) = -4, -18-(-14) = -4, -24-(-18) = -6

It is clear that there is a NO constant change in y

i.e. 10-6=4, 16-10 = 6, 24-16 = 8

Therefore, the given table DOES NOT represent a linear function as there is NO CONSTANT change in x and y values.

The steps below show the incomplete solution to find the value of m for the equation 5m − 2m + 4 = −1 + 12: Step 1: 5m − 2m + 3
Delicious77 [7]

Given:

Consider the equation is:

5m-2m+3=-1+12

Some steps of the solution are given.

To find:

The next step of the solution.

Solution:

Step 1: The given equation is:

5m-2m+3=-1+12

Step 2: Simplifying right hand side.

5m-2m+3=11

Step 3: Simplifying left hand side.

3m+3=11

These steps are already given. So, the next step is:

Step 4: Subtracting 3 from both sides.

3m=8

Therefore, the correct option is (b).

Which formula does NOT describe the sequence 8, 6, 3, –1, –6, … ?
Lapatulllka [165]
<span> To get an explicit formula, we need to find an expression which gives the n-th term without having to compute earlier terms in the sequence. Looking at the numbers, and from the recursive formula, we see that the sequence is built by subtracting n from the previous term. This is similar to the triangular number sequence 1,3,6,10,15,... which has the explicit formula a_n = n(n+1)/2. In our case we are subtracting n from the previous term, so we multiply by -1/2 instead of 1/2. However, we also need to add a constant term to reproduce the numbers of the sequence. We can write a_1 = -1(2)/2 + c = 8. Therefore, c = 9.
So the explict formula is:
a_n = -n(n+1)/2 + 9</span>

Find the value of x.
nevsk [136]

Answer:

<h2>x = 30°</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the figure above is a triangle, all it's angles sum up to 180°

To find x , add up all the angles and subtract them from 180°

That's

57 + 93 + x = 180

150 + x = 180

x = 180 - 50

We have the final answer as

<h3>x = 30°</h3>

Hope this helps you
