Answer:

x_2 - x_1 = 1 gives y_2 - y_1 = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = 4x

(x_1,x_2) = (x,x+1)

Required

Show that the y values increases by 4 for x_2 - x_1 = 1

We have:

y = 4x

For x_1 = x

y_1 = 4x_1

Substitute x_1 = x

y_1 = 4x

For x_2 = x + 1

y_2 = 4x_2

Substitute x_2 = x + 1

y_2 = 4(x+1)

y_2 = 4x+4

So, we have:

y_2 = 4x+4

y_1 = 4x

Subtract y_1 from y_2

y_2 - y_1 = 4x + 4 - 4x

Collect like terms

y_2 - y_1 = 4x - 4x+ 4

y_2 - y_1 = 4

Hence:

x_2 - x_1 = 1 gives y_2 - y_1 = 4

i.e. an increment of 4

Answer:

37/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

(12 + 1/3)/2

Put 12 + 1/3 over the common denominator 3. 12 + 1/3 = (3×12)/3 + 1/3:

((3×12)/3 + 1/3)/2

3×12 = 36:

(36/3 + 1/3)/2

36/3 + 1/3 = (36 + 1)/3:

((36 + 1)/3)/2

36 + 1 = 37:

(37/3)/2

37/3×1/2 = 37/(3×2):

37/(3×2)

3×2 = 6:

Answer: 37/6
