We first need to pick the correct piece to use. In this case, we will use f(x) = -x-5 because -5<=-4.
Then, we use direct substitution:
f(-4) = -(-4) - 5
f(-4) = -1
Answer:
Increases, same, increases, decreases
Step-by-step explanation:
I mean just look at the graph
Answer:
5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
To find how many miles it is from the train station to the museum we first have to subtract the tip from the total fair and you get 13.50 and then you divide 13.50 by 2.70 to get the number of miles and you get 5.
Answer:
R = -8 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll solve the given equation for R.
Subtract 3 1/2 from both sides of the equation, to isolate R:
R + 3 1/2 - 3 1/2 = -4 2/3 - 3 1/2, or
R = -4 2/3 - 3 1/2
The LCD here is 6, which is the product of 3 and 2. Converting the fractions to denominator 6, we get:
R = -4 4/6 - 3 3/6, or
R = -7 - 7/6, or R = -7 - 1 1/6, or -8 1/6
The formula for the quadratic formula is x (c in this case) = (-b(+/-)√(b²-4ac))/2a
This is used for an equation in standard quadratic form: ax² + bx + c = 0
1.) Put it in the correct form, if not already in it.
Ex. c² + 6c + 8 = 0
2.) Identify each part of the equation:
a = 1 (the leading coefficient), b = 6 (the coefficient in front of the second variable), c = 8
3.) Plug in each variable answer
c = (-6(+/-)√(6²-4(1)(8))/2(1)
4.) Simplify
c = (-6(+/-)√(36-(4*8))/2
c = (-6(+/-)√(36-32))/2
c = (-6(+/-)√(4))/2
c = (-6(+/-)2)/2
*Here, the equation splits in two. It becomes:
c = (-6+2)/2 AND c = (-6-2)/2
*Simplify again:
c = -4/2 AND c = -8/2
c = -2 AND c = -4
The answers c = -2 and c = -4 would solve the given equation.
Hope this helps! :)
