Answer:

Yes the function is continuous f(5) = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace the variable x with 5 in the expression

Simlify the results

f(5) = 3(5)-3

f(5) = 15=3

f(5) = 13

Jake has two pet guinea pigs named fluffy and scruffy. Fluffy is8 1/8 inches long. Scruffy is 10 1/4 inches long. How much longe

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

Scruffy is $2\frac{1}{8}$ inches longer than Fluffy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of Scruffy = $10\frac{1}{4}$ inches

Length of Fluffy = $8\frac{1}{8}$ inches

We have to calculate how much Scruffy is longer than Fluffy.

Difference of their lengths = $10\frac{1}{4}-8\frac{1}{8}$

= (10 - 8) + $(\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{8})$

= 2 + $(\frac{2-1}{8})$

= 2 + $\frac{1}{8}$

= $2\frac{1}{8}$ inches

Therefore, Scruffy is $2\frac{1}{8}$ inches longer than Fluffy.

What is the equation of a line, in point-slope form, that passes through (−2, −6) and has a slope of 13 ?

Sav [38]

It is the 3rd answer, y+6= 13(x+2) since the the point slope formula is
y-y1 = m(x-x1)

you plug the y-value of the coordinate point into y1 and you plug the x-value of the coordinate into x1. You plug the slope into m.
