To get from the first number to the second number the equation is 10x0.5+5=10
Thereafter the equation to get to the next number is 10x1.0+10=20
Thereafter the equation to get the next number is 20x1.5+15=45
Thereafter the equation to get the next number is 45x2.0+20=110
You can notice the pattern, the first number is what the last number was, you increase the second number by 0.5 and you increase the third number by 5.
Following this pattern to find the last number you do 110x2.5+25. This equation results in the number 300. Now time for the last number. You input 300x3.0+30. The answer results in 930. Therefore, the missing number is 930.
Let's examine this, as x increases by 1, what happens to the y-value? The y-value decreases by 2, so the slope is -2. When x = 0, we have our y-intercept, -5. So we can fill in Slope form with the Slope and Y-intercept that the equation is:
y = -2x - 5
A discontinuity is a point that cannot exist because the x-coordinate would cause a problem in the equation. If you have a polynomial in the denominator, you must find which values of x would cause the polynomial in the denominator to evaluate to zero. Since division by zero is undefined, that would cause a discontinuity.
Let's look at your function.


is in the numerator. It is defined for every value of x. There is no problem there.

is in the denominator. This is a function defined for every value of x, but since it is in the denominator, we must exclude the x-value that would cause this polynomial to evaluate to zero.
We set it equal to zero and solve the equation for x.



For x = 0, the denominator has a value of zero, so at this point there is a discontinuity in function f(x).
The answer is:
Well a half cup is 2/4 and if the serving size is 3/4 there is only 66.66% of the serving size needed hope this helps!
