Answer:
This is a linear function because there is a common difference of 4
⇒ 2nd answer
Step-by-step explanation:
- In the linear function there is a common difference between each two
consecutive data
- In the exponential function there is a common ratio between each two
consecutive data
- Lats check the data in the data in the table
(x) === 1 ⇒ 2 ⇒ 3
f(x) === 4 ⇒ 8 ⇒ 12
∵ x has consecutive numbers 1 , 2 , 3
∵ 8 - 4 = 4
∵ 12 - 8 = 4
∴ f(x) has a common difference 4
∵ 8 ÷ 4 = 2
∵ 12 ÷ 8 = 1.5
∴ f(x) has no common ratio
∴ The table represents a linear function with common difference 4
This is a linear function because there is a common difference of 4

What is the x intercept of the equation that passes through (1,-6) and is perpendicular to y=1/3x +1
fomenos
\bf y=\stackrel{slope}{\cfrac{1}{3}}x+1\impliedby \textit{slope of this line, so a perpendicular will be}
\\\\\\
\textit{perpendicular, negative-reciprocal slope for}\quad \cfrac{1}{3}\\\\
negative\implies  -\cfrac{1}{ 3}\qquad reciprocal\implies - \cfrac{ 3}{1}\implies -3\\\\

% point-slope intercept
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-(-6)=-3(x-1)

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

A linear algebraic equation is nice and simple, containing only constants and variables to the first degree (no exponents or fancy stuff). To solve it, simply use multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction when necessary to isolate the variable and solve for "x". Here's how you do it: 4x + 16 = 25 -3x =
