What is the difference quotient for the function f(x) = 8/ 4x + 1

What Is The Difference Quotient For The Function F(x) = 8/ 4x + 1

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Last option (counting from the top)

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given function f(x), the difference quotient is:

[tex]\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{h} = \frac{1}{h}*(f(x + h) - f(x))[/tex]

In this case, we have:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{8}{4x + 1}[/tex]

Then the difference quotient will be:

[tex]\frac{1}{h}*( \frac{8}{4*(x + h) + 1} - \frac{8}{4x + 1})[/tex]

Now we should get a common denominator.

We can do that by multiplying and dividing each fraction by the denominator of the other fraction, so we will get:

[tex]\frac{1}{h}*( \frac{8}{4*(x + h) + 1} - \frac{8}{4x + 1}) = \frac{1}{h}*(\frac{8*(4x + 1)}{(4(x + h) +1 )*(4x + 1)} - \frac{8*(4(x + h) + 1)}{(4(x + h) +1 )*(4x + 1)})[/tex]

Now we can simplify that to get:

[tex]\frac{1}{h}*\frac{8*(4x + 1) - 8*(4(x + h) + 1)}{(4(x + h) +1 )*(4x + 1)}} = \frac{1}{h}*\frac{-32h}{(4(x + h) +1 )*(4x + 1)}} = \frac{-32}{(4(x + h) +1 )*(4x + 1)}}[/tex]

Then the correct option is the last one (counting from the top)

Samantha’s hockey team is fundraising for a trip to Europe! They are aerating lawns to raise money. Aerating lawns is a great service for homeowners because it helps the grass grow new roots and absorb water producing healthier lawns! The team has decided to charge $35/lawn for city sized lots. The rental cost for two aerating machines is $215. Samantha’s team has planned a Saturday to aerate!
Write an equation to relate the fund raised, R, in dollars to the number of lawns, l, aerated during the day.
Samantha’s team was able to aerate 26 lawns in one day! How much money did they raise?
How much money would the team lose if they were unable to aerate due to weather conditions? Is there any possible way they could avoid this potential loss?

Answers

Answer:

R = 35l-215

Step-by-step explanation:

total amount they earn = 35l

however, to account for the money used to rent the machines, we have to deduct 215 from the total cost.

hence,

R= 35l-215

total amount they raised = 35(26)-215 = $695

they would lose $215 if they were unable to aerate due to weather conditions

they could avoid this potential loss by checking the weather report before renting the machines

Answers

Answer:

Bill before tax = $32

Tax = 10/100×32

A fair spinner has 12 equal sections: 5 red 4 blue and 3 green. its Spun twice what is the probability of getting the same colour twice?​

Answers

Answer:

25/72

Step-by-step explanation:

P( blue) = blue / total = 4/12 = 1/3

P ( blue, blue) = 1/3 * 1/3 = 1/9

P ( red) = red / total = 5/12

P ( red, red) = 5/12 * 5/12 = 25/144

P ( green) = green /total = 3/12 =1/4

P ( green , green) = 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/16

Add these together to get

P( same colour twice) = 1/9+ 25/144 + 1/16

                                      =16/144 + 25/144 + 9/144

                                      =50/144

                                     =25/72

What is the solution to this system of equations?
x = 12 − y
2x + 3y = 29

Answers

Let’s arrange the fist equation
x+y=12
2x+3y=29

Multiply equation 1 by 2
So it will be

2x+2y=24

Subtract eq 1 from eq 2

2x+3y=29
2x+2y=24
—————-
Y =5

Put value of y in eq 1

2x+2y=24
2x +10= 24
2x= 24-10
2x= 14
x=14/2
x=7

S.S= (7,5)

Explanation: I would use the substitution method for this system

because one of the variables, x, is already isolated in the first equation.

Since our first equation states that x = 12 - y, 12 - y can be substituted

in for x in the second equation which becomes 2(12 - y) + 3y = 29.

Now we can solve this equation by first distributing the 2

through the parentheses to get 24 - 2y + 3y = 29 and you

should be able to easily finish solving from here to get y = 5.

Now substitute a 5 back in for the first equation to get

x = 12 - (5) or x = 7 which means that our solution is (7, 5).

<3 and <6 can be classified as:
a. alternate exterior angles
b. same side interior angles
c. corresponding angles
d. alternate interior angles

Answers

Answer: d. alternate interior angles

Note how the two angles are inside, or interior, of the lines L1 and L2. For me, I tend to think of such lines like train tracks. So that takes care of the "interior" portion.

As for the "alternate" portion, we can see that the angles are on either side of the transversal line T.

So that's why angles 3 and 6 are alternate interior angles.

If L1 and L2 are parallel, then angle 3 = angle 6.

Each side of a pentagon is 10 cm greater than the previous side. If the perimeter of this pentagon is 500 cm, find the lengths of the sides.

Answers

Answer:

(I'll leave cm out to save space and time in the answer)

the perimeter is 500, there are 5 sides. so on average a side will be 100.

that's already the important key idea.

it's indeed 100 for the third side, the second will be 10 less, the fourth 10 more (making the 2and and the 4th side 200 in sum, and therefore still 100 on average).

repeat this for the 1. and 5. side and we get:

Many track hurdlers believe that they have a better chance of winning if they start in the inside lane that is closest to the field. For the data​ below, the lane closest to the field is Lane​ 1, the next lane is Lane​ 2, and so on until the outermost​ lane, Lane 6. The data lists the number of wins for track hurdlers in the different starting positions. Find the critical value to test the claim that the probabilities of winning are the same in the different positions. Use 0.05. The results are based on 240 wins.

Answers

Answer:

χ² = 6.75

χ² Critical = 11.07

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

Expected winnings ;

1/n * total number of wins

Total number of wins = 240

n = number of starting positions = 6

Expected winnings = 1/6 * 240 = 40

Using χ² test :

χ² = Σ(O - E)² / E

O = Observed ; E = Expected

χ² = (32 - 40)^2 / 40 + (33 - 40)^2 / 40 + (45 - 40)^2 / 40 + (44 - 40)^2 / 40 + (50 - 40)^2 / 40 + (36 - 40)^2 / 40

= 6.75

χ² Critical at α = 0.05 ; df = n - 1 ; df = 5

χ² Critical = 11.07

Since χ² < χ² Critical ; WE fail to reject H0.

Let

Cost of children skating = x

The equation is

4 + 5x = 16

Statement 2:

Cost of making a bike bag= $4

Selling price of the bike bag = $5

Profit = $16

Let x = number of bike bag

Profit = selling price - cost price

16 = 5x - 4x

16 = x(5 - 4)

Also written as

(5 - 4)x = 16

Hope made 3 different yo-yos. She used 1 3/4 meters of string for the first yo-yo, 1 meter of string for the second yo-yo, and a total of meters of string 4 1/3

length of first yo-yo = 1 3/4

length of second yo-yo = 1

Length of third yo-yo = x

Total = 4 1/3

Total length = length of first yo-yo + length of second yo-yo + length of third yo-yo

4 1/3 = 1 3/4 + 1 + x

4 1/3 = 2 3/4 + x

4 1/3 - 2 3/4 = x

13/3 - 11/4 = x

(52-33) / 12 = x

19/12 = x
