This is a function since it passes the vertical line test. It is impossible to draw a single vertical line to have it pass through more than one point on the curve.
The domain is the set of numbers x such that x is between -3 and +3 excluding those endpoints. In other words, the domain is -3 < x < 3. We never actually get to either endpoint because of the vertical asymptotes.
The range is the set of all real numbers. It is possible to get any output we want depending on the specific input.
Slope of f(x)
Slope of g(x)
PART A)
The slopes of f(x) and g(x) are the same.
PART B)
The equation for line f(x)
y = 4x + b
-1 = 4(0) + b
-1 = b
y = 4x - 1
The function G(x) has a bigger y-intercept. The y-intercept of g(x) is 3, while the y-intercept of f(x) is -1.
Answer:
(a) So the top of the hill is 365 feet above sea level.
(b) Checkpoint 5 is 185 feet higher than checkpoint 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Solution for (a):</u>
<u />
Checkpoint 2 is -218 feet above sea level.
The top of a hill rises 583 feet above Checkpoint 2.
The altitude of the top of the hill = -218 + 583 = 365
So the top of the hill is 365 feet above sea level.
<u>Solution for (b):</u>
<u />
Checkpoint 2 is -218 feet above sea level.
Checkpoint 5 is -33 feet above sea level.
Checkpoint 5 is -33 - -218 = 185 feet higher than checkpoint 2.
