Answer:
(b) (-3, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Differences between adjacent f(x) values are ...
-31, -13, -1, +5, +5, -1, -13
The function is increasing on intervals where the differences are positive: between (-3, -11) and (-1, -1). That is ...
f(x) is increasing on (-3, -1)
X=time of the third person it would take to fill the pool
We can suggest this equation:
6[(1/20) + (1/15) +(1/x)]=1
6[(3x+4x+60)/60x]=1
(7x+60)/10x=1
7x+60=10x
7x-10x=-60
-3x=-60
x=-60/-3
x=20
Answer: the third person alone would fill the pool in 20 hours .
Answer:
x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
4x-16=-20
Get x to one side by subtracting it.
-16=-20-4x
Add the 20 on both sides.
-16+20=-4x
Simplify
4=-4x
4/-4=-4x/-4
-1=x
x=-1
