Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes.

The exemplar equation has slope

9x - 3y = 18

- 3y = -9x + 18

y = 3x - 6

m = 3

so perpendicular slope will be -1/3

D has such a slope

3y = -x + 1

y = (-1/3)x + 1/3

Consider the exponential function f(x) = 2(3x) and its graph.

AveGali [126]

Answer:

The initial value of the function is 2

The base of the function is 3

The function shows exponential growth

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2(3^x)

Exponential functions are those with the following equation:

y = a*b^x

where a ≠ 0, b > 0 and b ≠ 1 and x is a real number.

a is the y-intercept and b is the base.

The initial value of the function is the same as the y-intercept

If a is positive, the function growth. If a is negative, the function decay

Given h of x equals negative 2 times the square root of x minus 3 end root, which of the following statements describes h(x)?

MrMuchimi

Answer:

The function h(x) is decreasing on the interval (3, ∞).

Step-by-step explanation:

Please take a look at the attached image.

You will see a graph of the given function h(x) = -2 $\sqrt{x-3}$ . The function is decreasing.

The function starts at 3 and starts to go towards negative infinity on the x-axis. Therefore the function is decreasing on the interval (3, ∞).
