The first word of the question is cut out of the picture, so we don't exactly know what the assignment is. But we can see that the graph of f(x) will do something weird when x=-3, because the denominator will be zero, and division by zero doesn't even have a definition or meaning. Just for fun, you should go ahead and calculate the numerator when x=-3, and that totally blows your mind, because the numerator is zero too. So you've got. f(-3)= 0/0 , and I can pretty much guarantee that you won't be able to plot that point anywhere on the graph. (I'm pretty sure that f(-3) is actually going to turn out to be -13, but even if I'm correct, you probably haven't learned that little calculus trick yet, so don't worry about it. As far as you're concerned, f(-3) is 0/0, and can't be plotted.)
Use the points to find the equations of both your lines.
By using the formula for finding slope where: m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
Your first equation is y = -2x+4
Your second equation is y = -2x+7
Normally you want to set these equal to each other and see where they are equal... however, as you can clearly see, these two equations are parallel. Parallel equations don't intersect, which would mean your answer is A, no solutions.
Answer:
.82 x 4 = $3.28
.82 = 1/4 pound, so you multiply by 4 (the reciprocal of 1/4) to get a whole.
Hope this helps <3
By the order of operation, we first do the operation in parentheses
( 6 * (2 + 15) ) /3 = (6* 17)/3 = 102 / 3
Then we do the division
Answer = 102 / 3 = 34
Hope that helps!
