Assuming the time changes at a constant rate, the equation for this is linear (so has the equation y=mx +c)

8am = -2

9am = -0.5

10am = 1.0

11am = 2.5

12pm = 4

m = change in each value or the slope , for this it is m=1.5

c = the y intercept, we find this by: when x=8 y must = 1.5 , which it isn't , y has to = -2 . So c = -3.5

The equation then is: y= 1.5*x - 3.5

The gradient/slope/m value is 1.5. The answer is 1.5

For the function f(x) = 3x + 7, find the following:
a) f(2)=
c) f(x) = 8
b) f(-3) =
d) f(x) = 10

Answers

Answer:

a) 13

b) 1/3

c) -2

d) 1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is quite simple if you look at it from a different perspective. Imagine that when it says "f(2)" That you are plugging the number 2 in for every x on the right side of the equation:

For example:

f(x) = 3x + 7

f(2) = 3(2) + 7

f(2) = 6 + 7

f(2) = 13

________

f(-3) = 3x + 7

f(-3) = 3(-3) + 7

f(-3) = -9 + 7

f(-3) = 7 - 9 (This is just for those that hate negative values. You can rearrange the values as long as their sign is the same when you do move them. Ex: -14 + 6 - 4 + 9 == 9 + 6 - 14 - 4. I hope that makes sense.

f(-3) = -2

The other way is quite simple as well, if you look at it from a different perspective. Imagine that when it says "f(x) = 8" that you are changing the f(x) to the number 8:

For example:

f(x) = 8

f(x) = 3x + 7

8 = 3x + 7

8 - 7 = 3x

1 = 3x

x = 1/3

f(x)= 10

f(x) = 3x + 7

10 = 3x + 7

10 - 7 = 3x

3 = 3x

3/3 = x

1 = x

I hope this helps!

Answer:

a) 13
b) 1/3
c) -2
d) 1

Step-by-Step Explanation:

=> f(x) = 3x + 7

a) f(2)

Substitute the Value of ‘x’ :-

= 3x + 7
= 3(2) + 7
= 6 + 7
=> 13

Hence, f(2) = 13

b) f(x) = 8

Equate the Function to 8 :-

3x + 7 = 8
3x = 8 - 7
3x = 1
=> x = 1/3

Hence, x = 1/3

c) f(-3)

Substitute the Value of ‘x’ :-

= 3x + 7
= 3(-3) + 7
= -9 + 7
=> -2

Hence, f(-3) = -2

d) f(x) = 10

Equate the Function to 10 :-

3x + 7 = 10
3x = 10 - 7
3x = 3
=> x = 3/3 = 1

Hence, x = 1

What is the (LCD) 1/6and 1/3

Answers

Answer:

The LCD of 1/6 and 1/3 is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewriting input as fractions if necessary:

1/6, 1/3

For the denominators (6, 3) the least common multiple (LCM) is 6.

LCM(6, 3)

Therefore, the least common denominator (LCD) is 6.

Calculations to rewrite the original inputs as equivalent fractions with the LCD:

1/6 = 1/6 × 1/1 = 1/6

1/3 = 1/3 × 2/2 = 2/6

3x - 6y=-15
pls helpppp

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are:

1) 2y = -x + 9

⇒ x = 9-2y

2) 3x - 6y = -15

⇒3x = 6y - 15

x = 2y - 5

Equating the values of x, we get:

9 - 2y = 2y - 5

9 + 5 = 4y

14 = 4y

y = 3.5

Using this value of y in equation 1 we get:

x = 9 - 2(3.5) = 2

So, the solution set is (2, 3.5)

Ok for area for a triangle is 1/2 ×base×height and for a semi circle it is pi (π)or 3.14 or 22/7×rsquare with is radius x radius

Step-by-step explanation:

lets start with the triangle so it is 1/2×3/1×5/1×4/1 =30/1 =30sqkm

now for the semi circle it is 22/7×2/1×2/1=88/7=12.5÷2=6.2 why is 4/1 turned into 2/1 it is because you are finding area and 4 is the diameter but we need radius so the radius is half of the diameter

so 30+6.2=36.2kmsq

Write the equation 2x - 4y = 14 in slope-intercept form, and then find the slope and y-intercept.

Answers

Answer:

y = 1/2x - 7/2

Slope: 1/2

Y-intercept: (0, -7/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the slope-intercept form of an equation of a line is y = mx + c where slope is m and y-intercept is c.

So, -4y = (-2)x + 14 [divide both sides by -4]

-4/-4 = -2/-4 + 14/-4

y = 1/2 -7/2

Hence the slope =  1/2 and y-intercept = -7/2.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is negative. Answer choice B

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the question:

-3^40(5.6/2.1)

According to order of operations, we must do -3^40 first.

Its important to note that -3^40 is different than (-3)^40. In the problem you specified, the ^40 only applies to the 3, not -3. So, first we do 3^40 which is a huge number. And then, we need to add a negative symbol to that huge number. So now we have a massive negative number multiplied by 5.6/2.1, which is obviously positive. Obviously, a negative number multiplied by a positive number is still negative. Therfore, the answer is negative.

A stainless steel patio heater is a square pyramid. The length of one side of the base is 23.4 in. The

The height of the pyramid is aboutin.
(Round to one decimal place as needed.)

Answers

The height of the square-based pyramid is 91.72 in if the length of one side of the base is 23.4 in.

What is a square pyramid?

In geometry, it is defined as the shape having a square base with equal sides length and all the vertex of the square's joints at the top, which is perpendicular to the center of the square.

We have a square pyramid.

Length of the pyramid = 23.4 in

The slant height of the pyramid = 93.2 in

From the figure:

Base length CB  = DC = 23.4 in

In a right-angled triangle, BCD

Applying Pythagoras theorem:

DC² + CB² = DB²

23.4² + 23.4² = DB²

DB = 33.092 in

OB = (1/2)DB

OB = (1/2)33.092 = 16.546 in

In the right-angle triangle AOB, again applying Pythagoras theorem:

AO² + OB² = AB²

h² + 16.546² = 93.2²

AO = h (height of the square pyramid)

AB = slant height = 93.2 in

After calculating, we get:

h = 91.719 ≈ 91.72 in

Thus, the height of the square-based pyramid is 91.72 in if the length of one side of the base is 23.4 in.

Fawzia has an action figure collection of 500 action figures. She keeps 58% of the action figures on her wall. How many action figures does she keep on her wall?

Answers

Answer:

290

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula :

Number of action figures on wall = Total number of figures × % of figures on wall

=============================================================

Given :

⇒ Total number of action figures = 500

⇒ % of action figures on wall = 58%

=============================================================

Solving :

Action figures on wall = 500 × 58%

⇒ Action figures on wall = 500 × 58/100 (all % are ratios of 100%)

⇒ Action figures on wall = 5 × 58

⇒ Action figures on wall = 290

Step-by-step explanation:

The functions f(x) and g(x) are defined as f(x) = 6x and g(x) = 3x + 6

fog(x) = f(g(x))

= f(3x + 6)

= 6(4x +2)

6 x 4x = 24x

6 x 2 = 12

fog(x) = 24x + 12

(fog)(0) where x = 0

= 24(0) + 12
