Solve the equation by replacing x with -7 and then -1.
Then subtract the two to find the difference and divide that by the difference between -7 and -1.
f(-7) = -7^2 + 2(-7) -8 = 49 -14 -8 = 27
f(-1) = -1^2 + 2(-1) -8 = 1 -2 - 8 = -9
Difference between 27 and -9 = -36
Difference between -1 and -7 = -6
Rate of change = -36 /-6 = 6
No, the 2 lines can never ever be both parallel and perpendicular if I'm not mistaken. This is because a set of parallel lines will never touch each other at all. However perpendicular lines are two lines that meet up to get an angle of 90. You cannot have two lines that never touch and touch at the same time.
Answer:
Eight less than four times a number is equal to two times the difference of double that same number decreased by three.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is:
4x−8=2(2x−3)
We will try to translate the given equation in English.
We can see that the variable used is only one. On the left hand side of the equation 8 is being subtracted from 4 times of the variable and on the right hand side 3 is being subtracted from 2 times of variable and then being multiplied by two.
From the given option, correct answer is:
Eight less than four times a number is equal to two times the difference of double that same number decreased by three.
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
So the numerator of your fraction (the top number) is the amount that was cut. The denominator (the bottom number) is the total amount of rope. So, your fraction would be 2/12. You can still simplify that by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2 and end up with 1/6. Does that make sense? If you need any more help, go ahead and message me :)
