From the set {-252, -64, 64}, use substitution to determine which value of x makes the equation true.
1 answer:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
x = 64
Step-by-step explanation:
I find it easier to solve the equation, which requires 1 operation. Substituting 3 numbers requires 3 operations, so is 3 times the work. (I'm basically lazy.)
4x = 256 . . . . given
x = 256/4 = 64 . . . . the last of the listed values
__
Alternatively, you can let a graphing calculator or spreadsheet try the list of values for you. That result is attached.
_____
Since you know the rules of signed multiplication, you know that x must be positive. Only one answer choice is positive, so you really only need to try one number.
4(64) = 256 . . . . true, so x = 64

The distance traveled by Davis family = 35 miles
Time taken to cover the distance = hour
Speed = Distance Time
Speed =
Speed =
So, speed = 70 miles/hour.
At 2:00 pm, the family destination was 245 miles away.
So, the number of hours, when the family was 245 miles away =
= 3.5 hours
So, after 3.5 hours, that is at 5:30 pm, the Davis family will be 245 miles away.
Answer:
The rate of change for the interval shown in the table is 1 , so the function is a linear function.
Step-by-step explanation:
See the table attached.
The table shows selected points from a function.
Now, the given interval is x = 1 to x = 4.
For, x = 1, f(x) = 2 and for x = 4. the function f(x) = 5.
Therefore, the rate of change for the interval shown in the table i.e slope of the line is and it is constant throughout the interval so the function is a linear function. (Answer)
