If y = 3x + 1 is changed to y = 4x + 1, how would the graph of the new function compare with

Mathematics

inn [45]2 years ago

Answer:

The graph of the new function would be steeper than the first one.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Slope-intercept form</h3>

y= mx +c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept. Note that in this form, the y term is the only term on the left-hand side of the equation and its coefficient is 1.

<h3>Identifying gradients</h3>

Since the two equations are in the slope-intercept form, we can easily identify their gradients from the coefficient of x.

The gradient of the first graph is 3, while that of the new function is 4.

<h3>Implications of a greater gradient</h3>

The gradient of a graph is how steep it is, or the change of y with respect to x. Also when we are given a linear graph without its equation, we can find its gradient using the formula:

\boxed{ slope = \frac{y _{1} - y_2 }{x_1 - x_2} }

This formula can also be written as

\boxed{ slope = \frac{rise }{run} }

These formulas imply that the gradient is the looking at how much the y- coordinate changes with respect to x. The term 'gradient' and 'slope' have the same meaning and is used interchangeably here.

Given that the new function has a greater slope, it has a greater change in y with respect to x than the first graph. Thus, we see a steeper graph when y= 3x +1 is changed to y= 4x +1.

<h3>y- intercepts</h3>

The y-intercept does not change in this case and both graphs intercept the y-axis at y= 1.

<h3>Note</h3>

In the attached graph, the first graph is represented by the red line while the graph of the new function is in blue.

OLga [1]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

f(x) = 7/x

<em>~ Simply keep the "7" in the place where "x" is there.</em>

f(7) =  \frac{7}{7}

Therefore, X= 1.

Find the volume of a right circular cone that has a height of 14.3 ft and a base with a diameter of 17.2 ft. Round your answer t
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Volume of the given cone is 1107.6 cubic feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to get the volume of a right circular cone is,

V = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h

Here r = radius of the circular base

h = height of the cone

Now we put the values in the given formula

Volume = \frac{1}{3}\pi (8.6)^2(14.3)  [ radius = \frac{17.2}{2}=8.6 ]

             = \frac{1057.628\pi }{3}

             = 1107.55

             ≈ 1107.6 cubic feet

Therefore, volume of the given cone is 1107.6 cubic feet.

If bananas cost $ 0.49 per ponds, how much would 5.5 pounds cost? Round to the nearest hundredth.
insens350 [35]
Bananas are $0.49 per pound, and you want to buy 5.5 pounds of bananas. 

0.49 x 5.5 = 2.695 <span>≈ 2.70
</span>
So the final answer is 2.70 dollars for 5.5 pounds of bananas.
