I believe it's increasing on all fronts, because if you start from the right, you see that the y values always increase, hence they are increasing. They do it for when x<0 and when x>0. So, it should be increasing on all real numbers

Answer:

The slope of the line representing the linear function f(x) is determined as $-\frac{1}{2}$ . The function f(x) is decreasing because the slope is less than zero, i.e., m<0.

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function f(x) is given with two points, (2,3) and (0,4) lying on the line representing f(x).

It is asked to determine the slope of the line and state if the function is increasing or decreasing. of the value of the slope obtained.

Step 1 of 1

Determine the slope of the line.

The points as given in the question are (2,3) and (0,4). Now, the formula for the slope is given as

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

So, substitute $4 \& 3$ for $y_{2}$ and $y_{1}$ respectively, and $0 \& 2$ for $x_{2}$ and $x_{1}$ respectively in the above formula. Then simplify to get the slope as follows, $m=\frac{4-3}{0-2}$\\ $m=\frac{1}{-2}$\\ $m=-\frac{1}{2}$

The slope of the line is obtained as $-\frac{1}{2}$ . Now, as $-\frac{1}{2} < 0$ , so the function f(x) is decreasing.

1 fourth B minus 10 equals 7

creativ13 [48]

$\frac{1}{4}$ b - 10 = 7
Take 10 to the other side.

$\frac{1}{4}$ b = 17

Multiply by 4 to isolate b
$\frac{1}{4}$ b × 4 = 17 × 4

4 and 4 cancels out

b = 68
