What is the equation of the line through the origin and (-5, 6)?

The graph of function f is shown. Function g is represented by the table. Which statement correctly compares the two functions?

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Option (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph of function 'f' represents,

x - intercept of the function 'f' → (1, 0)

y - intercept of the function → (0, 6)

As x-approaches ∞, value of the function approaches (-2)

Points in the given table is for the another function 'g'

x - intercept of the function 'g' → (1, 0) [For x - intercept, y = 0]

y - intercept of the function 'g' → (0, 3) [For y - intercept, x = 0]

As x approaches ∞, value of function 'g' approaches (-1).

Therefore, x - intercepts of both the functions are same but end behavior are different when x → ∞.

Option (A) will be the answer.

The equations of two functions are y=-21x+9 and y=24x+8 which function is changing more quickly? Explain

antoniya [11.8K]

Given:

The equations are

$y=-21x+9$

$y=24x+8$

To find:

Which function is changing more quickly.

Solution:

The slope intercept form of a line is

$y=mx+b$

Where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

On comparing $y=-21x+9$ with the slope intercept form, we get

$m_1=-21$

$|m_1|=|-21|$

$|m_1|=21$

On comparing $y=24x+8$ with the slope intercept form, we get

$m_2=24$

$|m_2|=24$

Since, $|m_1|$ , it means the absolute rate of change of second function is greater than the first function.

Therefore, the second function is changing more quickly.

the ratio of sallys height is 7:8. if the sum of their heights is 90 inches. how tall are sally and jack?

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Sally is 42 in. tall, and Jack is 48 in. tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are some words missing in the problem.

Perhaps the problem was meant to read:

"The ratio of Sally's height to Jack's height is 7:8. If the sum of their heights is 90 inches, how tall are Sally and Jack?"

Solution:

The ratio of the heights is 7:8.

Sally could measure 7 inches and Jack 8 inches, but then when you add the heights, 7 in. + 8 in. = 15 in. which is not 90 inches.

If you multiply both numbers in a ratio by the same number, the new numbers are still in the same ratio.

Multiply 7 and 8 by 2. You get 14 and 16. Maybe Sally is 14 in. tall and Jack is 16 in. tall. Add the heights, 14 in. + 16 in. = 30 in. This is also not 90 in.

We can keep on guessing what number to multiply by 7 and 8 by so their sum is 90, but we can use algebra to write an equation and not have to go through many guesses.

There is a number, x, that when you multiply 7 and 8 by x, the sum of the products is 90. We don't know what x is, but we can write an equation and solve for x.

The numbers in the ratio are 7x and 8x.

7x and 8x are still in the ratio 7:8.

Now we add the numbers 7x and 8x and set the sum equal to 90. Then we solve for x.

7x + 8x = 90

15x = 90

x = 6

We get x = 6. Now we know we need to multiply both 7 and 8 by 6 to get the heights we need.

7 in. * 6 = 42 in.

8 in. * 6 = 48 in.

Check: 42 in. + 48 in. = 90 in.

Answer: Sally is 42 in. tall, and Jack is 48 in. tall.
