Slope: -3
y-intercept: (0,7)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can make 2 equations as follows:
2x = y + 16 and x + 2y = 18
x + 2y = 18 is the same as x = 18 - 2y. Hence, 2(18 - 2y) = 2x = y + 16.
2(18 - 2y) = y + 16
36 - 4y = y + 16
5y = 20
y = 4.
Make a graph and start at the origin (0,0) count down 5 units and across to the right 4 units. Put a dot here. For every 1 unit the line moves to the right, it moves down 3.
Answer:
1/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
The 2 events are independent so we multiply the 2 probabilities.
Prob(rolling an odd number) = 3/6 = 1/2.
Prob(rolling a number greater than 2) = 4/6 = 2/3.
The required probability = 1/2 * 2/3
= 2/6
= 1/3.
To find the average rate of change of given function f(x) on a given interval (a,b):
Find f(b)-f(a), b-a, and then divide your result for f(b)-f(a) by your result for b-a:
f(b) - f(a)
------------
b-a
Here your function is f(x) = x^2 - 2x + 3. Substituting b=5 and a=-2,
f(5) = 5^2 -2(5)+3 =? and f(-2) = (-2)^2 - 2(-2) + 3 = ?
Calculate f(5) - [ f(-2) ]
------------------ using your results, above.
5 - [-2]
Your answer to this, if done correctly, is the "average rate of change of the function f(x) = x^2+2x+3 on the interval [-2,5]."
