b is the intial value starting point

y is the dependent variable

m is the slope

x is the constant rate of change

derivative is the slope if the line is a curve

y ⇒ how far up or down is the line,

x ⇒ how far along is the line,

b ⇒ the value of y when x = 0 and

m ⇒ how steep the line is.

HELP A GIRLL OUT I GAVE YOU ALL MY POINTS!! HELPP! 1. a. What is James’s new texting speed if he practices for only 1 month? ___
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

1. a. His new texting speed after one month is 2 + 1/2 = 2.5 characters per second.

b. After two months it will be 2 + (1/2) * 2 = 3 characters / second.

c. Answer is 2 + 1/2 * 3 = 3.5 characters/second/.

2. The answer is s = 1/2m + 2

3. To solve for m we write 8 = 1/2m + 2 → 6 = 1/2m → m = 12 months.

4. 10r + 4 = 8 → 10r = 4 → r = 0.4

5. The variable r represents the rate she must increase her texting speed by per month.

6. A scenario could be "Allison has 37 marbles in a jar. She took out 5 from the jar and wants to divide the remaining amount equally among her 8 friends. How many marbles does each friend get?".

Given f'(x) = (1 − x)(4 − x), determine the intervals on which f(x) is increasing or decreasing.
Sophie [7]
The critical points are at x = 1 and x = 4 giving you the intervals (-inf, 1), (1, 4) and (4, inf).

By substituting x values in these 3 intervals, you can see that f'(x) is positive in the first and third intervals and negative in the second interval.

This means that f(x) is increasing in the first and third intervals and decreasing in the second interval.

The answer is D.
