Rate of change = difference in y over difference in x.
Rate of change = (33-20)/(3-1) = 13/2
Rate of change = (48-33) /(5-3) = 15/2
The rates are not the same so it isn’t linear.
The rate of change for x=3 and x = 5 is greater.
<u>Answer:</u>
<h2><u>-2.25</u></h2><h3>
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></h3>
Lets start with D:
It says, 0.43 but we're on the OPPOSITE of 0, so it can't be a positive number.
Same goes for C.
Now we are on to our last two.
B, is -2.5 and A, is -0.8
So, now we look at the point <em>B </em>and <em>assume</em>, because it says Select a reasonable value for Point B.
To me, point <em>B </em>looks to be about around -2.0
So, the <em>reasonable value </em>for this problem would be -2.25
Use substitution
-x + 4 = 1/3x + 8
4 = 4/3x + 8
-4 = 4/3x
x = -4 * 3/4
x = -3
Then plug x into one of the original equations. In this case y = -x + 4 is the easiest.
y = -(-3) + 4
y = 7
Answer:
5< 10x -3
add like terms first
make sure X's are on one side and numbers on the other
