<h3>
Answer: No, this function is not linear</h3>
This function is a hyperbola. It graphs out two disjoint curves. A linear function produces a single straight line graph. All linear functions can be written in the form y = mx+b. The x being in the denominator is one indicator we cannot write the original equation in the form y = mx+b.
y = 3/x is the same as xy = 3; this tells us every point on y = 3/x has its (x,y) coordinate pair multiply to 3.
Answer:
x intercept=2, y intercept= -6
Step-by-step explanation:
X Intercept is when the graph crosses the X Axis, point of intersection. To find it, just convert into standard form and solve for x by getting rid of y.
The Y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis, point of intersection. It is the constant in the slope-intercept form.
Answer:
The population density is 0.364 fish per gallon.
Step-by-step explanation:
The population density can be defined as the number of individuals (in this case, small tropical fish) per unit of area or volume. In this case, the volume of the aquarium (55 gallon).
The density can be calculated then as:
The population density is 0.364 fish per gallon.
