Answer:
If your looking at a graph, you find the slope by going to a random point, and using rise/run to go to the next point. A negative slope means the function is decreasing, and a positive slope means the function is increasing.
we are given in the problem the number of hours Peter has played for video games. In this case, f(x) is the number of hours of playing with x as the number of weeks of playing. In this case, the equation f(x) = 5x.
Total distance 5 km; at 5km / 0.65 h =
Second part distance: x; at 6 km/h, during t2
First part distance: 5 - x; at 8.75 km/h, during t1
V = d/t ⇒ t = d/V
t2 = x/6
t1=[5-x]/8.75
t2 + t1 = 0.65
x/6 + [5-x]/8.75 = 0.65
x/6 + 5/8.75 - x/8.75 = 13/20
x/6 - x/8.75 = 13/20 - 5/8.75
x/6 - 4x/35 =13/20 - 20/35
35x - 24x = (35*6)(35*13 - 20*20)/(20*35)
11 x = 16.5
x = 16.5/11 = 1.5 km
<span>1)The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x):
x y
-1 -11
0 -1
1 9
g(x) = 5x + 1
Part A: Write a sentence to compare the slope of the two functions and
show the steps you used to determine the slope of f(x) and g(x). (6
points)
slope of the data of the table:
slope = rise / run = Δy / Δx = [ 9 - ( - 1) ] / [1 - 0] = 10/1 = 10
Also Δy / Δx = [-1 - (-11) ] / [ 0 - (-1) ] = 10 / 1 = 10
the slope of the function given in the form f(x) = mx + b is m, so the slope of g(x) = 5x - 1 is 5.
Comparisson: the slope of the function g(x) = 5x - 1 is half the slope of the function f(x) represented by the table.
Part B: Which function has a greater y-intercept? Justify your answer.
The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0, so it is - 1 for the function represented by the table.
The y-intercept of a function given in the form f(x) = mx + b is b, so the y-intercept of g(x) = 5x - 1 is - 1.
So, both functions have equal y-intercept.
2)The table below shows the values of y for each value of x:
x y
1 0
1 -1
2 1
2 -2
Part A: Does the table represent a relation that is a
function? Justify your answer by using the values shown in the table. (4
points)
No, it is not a function, because the relation is ambiguous: the x-coordinate 1 may have two differente values, and the x-coordinate 2 may have two different. So you cannot determine the images of x = 1 and x = 2.
Part B: The function f(x) shown below represents the number of baskets
Jess made at different distances, x, in meters, from the hoop:
f(x) = -x + 6
Calculate and interpret the meaning of f(4). (4 points)
f(4) = - 4 + 6 = 2
It means that Jess made 2 baskets at the distant of 4 meters.
Part C: Write an ordered pair to represent the input and output of the
function in Part B when Jess is at a distance of p meters from the hoop.
(2 points)
input, p output, f(p)
6 -6 + 6 = 0
So the ordered pair is (6,0)
