F(x) = kx
12 = 8k
k = 12/8 = 3/2
Required equation is f(x) = 3/2 x
Absolute value is when you have either a positive or negative value within a set of "parentheses" or what look just like vertical lines and whatever is within those line stays or becomes positive. The only exception to this is when there is a negative on the outside to act upon the positive values within.
<span>A). (1/2) The Probability is the same for both heads and tails because there are only two sides.</span>
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
a. Using two points on the line (0, 2) and (4, 12), find the gradient:
Gradient = ∆y/∆x = (12 - 2) / (4 - 0) = 10/4 = 2.5
Gradient = 2.5
b. The gradient, 2.5, represents the unit rate. That is, the volume of the oil in the tank per second.
i.e. 2.5 litres per second
c. The value, L = 2 represents the y-intercept, which is the starting value or initial volume of oil in the tank at 0 secs.
