Answer:
B. The statement does not make sense because a linear function has a straight-line graph.
Step-by-step explanation:
Linear functions have a general form y = m*x +b and only yield straight-line graphs. Therefore, the statement does not make sense, either the graphed function is not linear, or there was an error in the graphing process. The answer is alternative B.
*Note that alternative D is wrong because it is incomplete, since linear functions can have a rate of change that increases (m > 0), decreases (m < 0) or that is zero (m = 0).
What is the underlined digit?
"Since the ratio is 5:7 you can think in total there was 12 equal blocks of money invested. 5 of those blocks belonged to Jim and 7 of those blocks belonged to Gail. Since they invested $3,600 and then made $6,450 in total there is $10,050. Divide that total into 12 equal blocks of $837.50 and 5 of those blocks belong to Jim. So he will get $4,187.50"
Answer:
x=0 or x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
(x−2)(−5x2+x)=x(−5x2)+x−2(−5x2)−2x
−5x3+11x2−2x=−5x3+10x2−x
Step 1: Add 5x^3 to both sides.
−5x3+11x2−2x+5x3=−5x3+10x2−x+5x3
11x2−2x=10x2−x
Step 2: Subtract 10x^2-x from both sides.
11x2−2x−(10x2−x)=10x2−x−(10x2−x)
x2−x=0
Step 3: Factor left side of equation.
x(x−1)=0
Step 4: Set factors equal to 0.
x=0 or x−1=0
x=0 or x=1
