The common difference if there is one is the constant difference that occurs between any term and the term before it.... in this case:
There is no common difference,
dx=18,20,16,18 the difference or velocity is not constant...
d2x=2, -4,2 the acceleration is not constant...
d3x=-6,6 the thrust is not constant
Now we might be tempted to say that:
d4x=12 and say that that is constant and we COULD make a quartic equation fit all the data points, but without further data points in the sequence there is no mathematical proof that the quartic equation would produce accurate data points outside of the range given...
And solving a system of five equations for five unknowns is tedious for such a problem...a^4+bx^3+cx^2+dx+e=y
Answer:
i don't know the answer. Anyone dat knows the answer should comment
Answer:
y= -3x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we already know the slope, we have to plug in values to find out the constant of the equation. We use the point given to figure it out. Y+8 and x=-4, therefore 8=-3(-4)+c ---> 8=12+c. C=-4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The slope-intercept form:</u>
- y = mx + b, where m- slope, b- y-intercept
<u>Use point (5, -3) and m = -4/5:</u>
- -3 = -4/5*5 + b
- -3 = -4 + b
- b = -3 + 4
- b = 1
<u>The line is:</u>
