Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Slope (m) using the two points (2, 4.58) and (5, 4.28):

slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{4.28 - 4.58}{5 - 2} = \frac{-0.3}{3} = -0.1

Slope (m) = -0.1

✔️Initial Value = y-intercept = b

To find b, substitute x = 2, y = 4.58, and m = -0.1 into y = mx + b.

(Note: y is P(t) and x is t).

Thus:

4.58 = (-0.1)(2) + b

4.58 = -0.2 + b

Add 0.2 to both sides

4.58 + 0.2 = b

4.78 = b

b = 4.78

Initial value = 4.78

✔️Equation for the linear function:

Substitute b = 4.78, and m = -0.1 into P(t) = mt + b

Thus the equation would be:

P(t) = -0.1t + 4.78

✔️The y-intercept = initial value = 4.78

✔️The x-intercept = the value of t when P(t) = 0.

To get this, substitute P(t) = 0 into P(t) = -0.1t + 4.78.

Thus:

0 = -0.1t + 4.78

Add 0.1t to each side

0.1t = 4.78

Divide both sides by 0.1

t = 47.8

x-intercept = 47.8

Write an equation to represent the number puzzle. Use x as the
k0ka [10]
<h3>The equation is:</h3><h3>x^2 - 7x + 12 = 0</h3><h3>The number is 3 or 4</h3><h3><em><u>Solution:</u></em></h3>

Given that,

7 added to the square of a number is equal to 7 times the number,  minus 5

Let "x" be the unknown number

From given,

7 added to square of x = 7 times the x minus, 5

7 + x^2 = 7x - 5

Solve the above equation

x^2 -7x +7+5 = 0\\\\x^2 - 7x + 12 = 0

Split the middle term

x^2 -3x - 4x + 12 = 0\\\\Group\ the\ expressions\\\\(x^2-3x) -(4x - 12)  = 0\\\\Take\ the\ common\ factor\ out\\\\x(x -3) -4(x -3) = 0\\\\(x-3)(x-4) = 0

We have two solutions

x - 3 = 0

x = 3

And

x - 4 = 0

x = 4

Thus number is 3 or 4

Three circles can intersect in?
abruzzese [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (a) two points

Step-by-step explanation:

The curve of a circle can only intersect another circle at a point or in an arc. The intersection will only be an arc if the circles have the same center and radius (are the same circle).

Different circles can only intersect each other at one or two points. Three different circles can intersect in one or two points. The 2-point case is shown in the attachment.
