Answer:
y = -2 x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 3x-4y = 8
2. 18-5y = 10
Multiply equation 1 by 6
3. 18x-24y = 48
Subtract equation 2 from equation 3
4. -19y = 38
y = 38/-19
y = -2
Sub y = -2 back into equation 1
3x-4(-2) = 8
3x + 8 = 8
3x = 0
x = 0/3
x = 0
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm sure you want your functions to appear as perfectly formed as possible so that others can help you. f(x) = 4(2)x should be written with the " ^ " sign to denote exponentation: f(x) = 4(2)^x
f(b) - f(a)
The formula for "average rate of change" is a.r.c. = --------------
b - a
change in function value
This is equivalent to ---------------------------------------
change in x value
For Section A: x changes from 1 to 2 and the function changes from 4(2)^1 to 4(2)^2: 8 to 16. Thus, "change in function value" is 8 for a 1-unit change in x from 1 to 2. Thus, in this Section, the a.r.c. is:
8
------ = 8 units (Section A)
1
Section B: x changes from 3 to 4, a net change of 1 unit: f(x) changes from
4(2)^3 to 4(2)^4, or 32 to 256, a net change of 224 units. Thus, the a.r.c. is
224 units
----------------- = 224 units (Section B)
1 unit
The a.r.c for Section B is 28 times greater than the a.r.c. for Section A.
This change in outcome is so great because the function f(x) is an exponential function; as x increases in unit steps, the function increases much faster (we say "exponentially").
It looks like you might have intended to say the roots are 7 + i and 5 - i, judging by the extra space between 7 and i.
The simplest polynomial with these characteristics would be
but seeing as each of the options appears to be a quartic polynomial, I suspect f(x) is also supposed to have only real coefficients. In that case, we need to pair up any complex root with its conjugate to "complete" f(x). We end up with
which appears to most closely resemble the third option. Upon expanding, we see f(x) does indeed have real coefficients:
