Expand
(4a + 12 = 12 + 4a)
Cancel 4a on both sides
12 = 12
Since both sides are equal there are infinitely many solutions
Process of elimination, cross out d) no solution. But I would best go with C)
Answer: Choice A (yes it is a function; one range value exists for each domain value)
Put another way, each x corresponds to exactly one output only. We do not have any repeat x values. Any input you specify, there is only one output. If for example we had the two points (3,5) and (3,7) then the input x = 3 leads to multiple outputs y = 5 and y = 7 at the same time. This example is a non-function because of this. In this case, we don't have such repeated x values so that is why we have a function.
Try graphing out the four points given. You'll notice you cannot draw a vertical line through more than one point. Therefore, this graph passes the vertical line test. The vertical line test is to see if it's possible to draw a vertical line through more than one point on the graph. If so, then the relation fails to be a function.
We can see that the 12 in the equation is basically the "m" in the "general slope-intercept form."
Therefore, your answer is the slope of the equation is 12.
Answer:
slope = - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = - 3x + 2 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 3
