Answer:
• The function is a linear function
• The function changes at a constant rate
Step-by-step explanation:
A graph of the function shows it to be a straight line (linear function). Such a function always changes at a constant rate. The line goes downward to the right, so the function is a decreasing function.
___
"changes at a constant rate" and "linear function" are two different ways of saying the same thing: the graph of the function is a straight line.
The consecutive positive integers would be: x and (x+1),
We would have to solve the following equation to find these numbers:
x(x+1)-[x+(x+1)]=29
x²+x-2x-1=29
x²-x-30=0
x=[1⁺₋√(1+120)]/2
x=(1⁺₋11)/2
We have two possible solutions:
x₁=(1-11)/2=-5 then: (x+1)=-5+1=-4 This is not the solution.
x₂=(1+11)/2=6 then: (x+1)=6+1=7 This solution is right.
Answer: the numbers would be 6 and 7.
Answer:
P and Q are two points on the line x-y+1=0 and are at a distant of 5 units from the origin. Find the area of triangle POQ.
Step-by-step explanation:
P and Q are the intersection points of
x-y+1 = 0 and the circle x^2 + y^2 = 25
sub y = x+1 into the circle
x^2 + (x+1)^2 = 25
x^2 + x^2 + 2x + 1 - 25 = 0
x^2 + x - 12 = 0
(x+4)(x-3) = 0
x = 3 or x = -4
y = 4 or y = -3
so P(3,4) and Q(-4,3) are our two points
Height of triangle.
h = |0 - 0 + 1|/√2 = 1/√2
PQ = √( (-7)^2 + 1^2) = √50 = 5√2
area POQ = (1/2)(1/√2)(5√2) = 5/2 square units
hope this helped
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The angle formed by
and the angle marked as
are co-interior angles and therefore must be supplementary (add up to 180 degrees).
Therefore, we have:
