Answer:
infinite
Step-by-step explanation:
X = the number of months the tire was used
y = the thickness of the tire tread
y = -(3/7)x + 20
Substitute x for 20 (the number of months the tire was used) and solve for y.
The next question: Substitute x for 49 (the number of months the tire was used) and solve for y.
<span>The line goes through the points (4,-3) and (0,-2), so its gradient is (-2-(-3))/(0-4) = -1/4. The y-intercept is -2 because f(0)=-2. So the equation of the line is y = -1/4 x - 2.This can be represented by the linear function f(x) = (-1/4)x - 2.
The composite function ff is given by ff(x) = f(-1/4 x - 2) = (-1/4)((-1/4)x - 2) - 2 = x/16 - 3/2.</span>
