Answer:

<u>slope = -1/6</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>To find the slope: </em>

<em>1) find the change in the y values and the change in the x values. </em>

change in y = 8 - 10 = -2

change in x = -9 + 21 = 12

<em>2) divide the change in y and the change in x</em>

<u>slope = -2/12 = -1/6</u>

Answer:

-1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

(10 - 8)/(-21 + 9)= 12/-12= -1

y - 8 = -1(x + 9)

y - 8 = -x - 9

y = -x - 1

<span>The number of dollars collected can be modelled by both a linear model and an exponential model. To calculate the number of dollars to be calculated on the 6th day based on a linear model, we recall that the formula for the equation of a line is given by (y - y1) / (x - x1) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) = (1, 2) and (x2, y2) = (3, 8) The equation of the line representing the model = (y - 2) / (x - 1) = (8 - 2) / (3 - 1) = 6 / 2 = 3 y - 2 = 3(x - 1) = 3x - 3 y = 3x - 3 + 2 = 3x - 1 Therefore, the amount of dollars to be collected on the 6th day based on the linear model is given by y = 3(6) - 1 = 18 - 1 = $17 To calculate the number of dollars to be calculated on the 6th day based on an exponential model, we recall that the formula for exponential growth is given by y = ar^(x-1), where y is the number of dollars collected and x represent each collection day and a is the amount collected on the first day = $2. 8 = 2r^(3 - 1) = 2r^2 r^2 = 8/2 = 4 r = sqrt(4) = 2 Therefore, the amount of dollars to be collected on the 6th day based on the exponential model is given by y = 2(2)^(5 - 1) = 2(2)^4 = 2(16) = $32</span>

Please help!

Because
\frac{f(x)}{x-3} = 2x^{2} + 10x - 1
therefore
f(x) = (x-3)(2x² + 10x - 1) + k, where k =  constant.

Because f(3) = 4, therefore k =4.
The polynomial is
f(x) = 2x³ + 10x² - x - 6x² - 30x + 3 + 4
      = 2x³ + 4x² - 31x + 7

Answer:  f(x) = 2x³ + 4x² - 31x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

If you can get 3 shirts for $24 then that means that each shirt was $8. With that being said, 8 multiplied by 7 equals 56 so you would pay $56 for 7 shirts.
