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.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
We want a line of best fit, which means we want to create a line that the data points will lie closest to.
One thing we can do is find the slope between the bottom-leftmost point and the top-rightmost point. This is because if we were to draw a line connecting these two, it will cut through the data quite well.
Those two points are (9, 15) and (16, 18), so the slope is change in y divided by the change in x:
(18 - 15) ÷ (16 - 9) = 3 ÷ 7 ≈ 0.4
Eliminate A and B.
Now we need to determine the y-intercept. This needs no calculations; simply look at the graph: there's no way a line cutting through the y-intercept point of (0, 18) will perfectly match the data points; instead it must be a y-intercept lower than 18. So, eliminate D.
The answer is C.
Answer:
0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given ordered pairs are: (1,2) (2,2.5) (3,3) (4,3.5) (5,4)
The corresponding sequence is :
2,2.5,3,3.5, 4,....
We can see that there is a common difference of d=0.5.
Better still we could use the slope formula:

We substitute the point (1,2) and (2,2.5).
The rate of change of this sequence is:
