Answer:

I believe it might be C. -3

NikAS [45]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The answer is C. -3

Step-by-step explanation:

You could go about solving this mathematically or graphically. I'll explain both ways.

Mathematically: Plug the points into this equation

y(2) - y(1) / x(2) - x(1)

If you do this, it will be -2- 4 / 1 - -1, which equals -6/2. You can simplify this to -3 and there you go.

Graphically: Start on the point (-1,4) and count on the graph until you get to (1,-2) That will be down six units and right two units. This can be written as -6/2, which of course, can be simplified to -3.

I hope this helps.

Explain why the function is discontinuous at the given number
Blizzard [7]
For f to be continuous at x=5, we need to have

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to5}f(x)=f(5)

Note that x\to5 means that x\neq5, but that x is *approaching* 5. We're told that for x\neq5, we have

f(x)=\dfrac{x^2-5x}{x^2-25}

We can write

\dfrac{x^2-5x}{x^2-25}=\dfrac{x(x-5)}{(x+5)(x-5)}=\dfrac x{x+5}

and the limit would be

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to5}\frac x{x+5}=\dfrac5{5+5}=\dfrac5{10}=\dfrac12\neq1=f(5)

and so f is discontinuous.

11. The completion of a chemical reaction is expressed by the equation y = 300 - 4x - XP, where y is
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The reaction ca occur at 10 degree Celsius or -14 degree Celsius.                                          

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The completion of a chemical reaction is expressed by the equation

y = 300 - 4x -x^2

where y is  the number of seconds needed to complete the reaction and x is the temperature in degrees Celsius  at which the reaction occurs.

We have to find the temperature at which the reaction occurs, if the completion time of reaction is 160 seconds.

Putting y = 160

160 = 300 - 4x -x^2\\x^2 + 4x  - 140 = 0\\x^2 + 14x -10x -140 = 0\\x(x+14)-10(x+14)=0\\(x-10)(x+14) = 0\\(x-10) =0, (x+14) =0\\x = 10, x = -14

Thus, the reaction ca occur at 10 degree Celsius or -14 degree Celsius.

Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that contains the points (4, -7) and (0, 5).
LenaWriter [7]
The slope intercept form is y=mx+b
The slope formula is m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
So; 5-(-7) / 0-4= -3
Then you use one of the points to find b; I’ll use 0 and 5 (the first number is x and the second number is y)
5=(-3)(0)+b
5=0+b
5=b
Finally you plug in your two values
Y= -3x+5

Hope this helps :)
