- 7

= Since, we have same bases, we can subtract!
= To get,
=
-3
Answer
<span>-24=2(x-4)
Use distributive property
-24=2x-8
Add 8 to both sides
-16=2x
Divide 2 on both sides
Final Answer: -8=x</span>
To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. Let's round the value to the nearest hundredth. As you can see, the digit 8 is in the thousandths place and is greater than 5, therefore, you must round up to 0.038.
2. Now express the value as a single digit times a power of 10, as following:
x
Therefore, the answer is:
x
Answer:
The equation of the function: y = mx + b
- m = slope = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = [5 - (-3)]/(4 - 0) = (5 + 3)/4 = 8/4 = 2
- b = y-intercept = -3
Therefore, the equation is <u>f(x) = 2x - 3</u>
When x = 0, f(x) = 2(0) - 3 = <u>-3</u>
When x increases by 1, f(x) increases by <u>2</u> (slope = the rate of change)
