Answer:
B. Beth's age is 18 years, and Sally's age is 42 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this question in a couple of different ways. First, you can use process of elimination. You know that Sally is older than Beth because she has to be 3 times older 6 years ago, so you can get rid of options C and D because they both show Beth as being older. Now you only have A and B, and you can use a different process. Now from just looking at it, you can tell that A actually already shows Sally as 3 times Beth's age, 15 * 3 = 45. If you go to B, you can go ahead and subtract 6 from 18 (Beth's age) which will give you 12, and then multiply that by 3 to get 36. Now if you take 42 (Sally's age) and subtract 6 from it as well, you will get 36. This means that is lines up. To simplify, you are subtracting 6 from both 18 and 42, and then you are multiplying the lower number by 3 to see if it gets to the bigger number.
Hope this helped ^-^
The x-intercepts are readily identified on the graph: (2,0) and (4,0). The midpoint of a line connecting those 2 points would be (3,0).
-2x + 5 = -1
subtract 5 from both sides: -2x = -6
divide each side by -2: x = 3
plug in 3: 5(3)
multiply: 15
the value of 5x is 15.
Answer:
The function is decreasing in the following intervals
A. (0, 1)
C. (2, pi)
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this question, imagine that you draw lines of slope m parallel to the function shown at each point.
-If the slope of this line parallel to the function is negative for those points then the function is decreasing.
-If the slope of this line parallel to the function is positive for those points then the function is increasing.
Observe in the lines drawn in the attached image. You can see that they have slope less than zero in the following interval:
(0, 1) U (2, pi)
Therefore the correct option is:
A. (0, 1)
C. (2, pi)
