Find the difference quotient and simplify your answer.
f(x) = x2 – 2x + 6,
h = 0
h
f(8 + h) – f(8),
Answers
We're given that
[tex]f(x)=x^2-2x+6[/tex]
which means
[tex]f(x+h)=(x+h)^2-2(x+h)+6=x^2+2xh+h^2-2x-2h+6[/tex]
When we subtract these, several terms cancel:
[tex](x^2+2xh+h^2-2x-2h+6)-(x^2-2x+6)=2xh+h^2-2h[/tex]
So the difference quotient is
[tex]\dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}h=\dfrac{2xh+h^2-2h}h[/tex]
and since h ≠ 0, we can cancel it out to end up with
[tex]\dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}h=2x+h-2[/tex]
Now plug in x = 8 (this could have been done at any prior point):
[tex]\dfrac{f(8+h)-f(8)}h=14+h[/tex]

Given: <1 and <2 are supplementary, and <2 and <3 are supplementary. Prove: <1 is congruent to <3
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
If ∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary, then m∠1 + m∠2 = 180° (1).
If ∠2 and ∠3 are supplementary, then m∠2 + m∠3 = 180° (2).
From (1) we have
m∠1 + m∠2 = 180° /subtract m∠1 from both sides
m∠2 = 180° - m∠1
substitute it to (2)
(180° - m∠1) + m∠3 = 180°
180° - m∠1 + m∠3 = 180° /subtract 180° from both sides
- m∠1 + m∠3 = 0 /add m∠1 to both sides
m∠3 = m∠1 ⇒ m∠1 = m∠3 ⇒ ∠1 ≅ ∠3
Write the recurrence relation for the nth term which is defined by multiplying the prior term by 3 and subtracting 12.
Answers
Answer: Aₙ = 3*Aₙ₋₁ - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Here our terms will be denoted as:
Aₙ
Where this is the n-th term of the sequence.
Now we have that the recurrence relation is defined by:
"by multiplying the prior term by 3 and subtracting 12."
Then we will have that:
Aₙ = 3*Aₙ₋₁ - 12
That is the equation to find all the terms in our sequence (remember that we need to know the initial term, A₀ in order to find all the other ones)

It would be 13.50 because 50% off of 18$ is 9$ but it’s not 50% off itS 25% off so If you take the 50% Off price of 9$ and add 4.50 (One more 1/4th) you get $13.50
Two consecutive EVEN numbers have a sum of 30. What are the numbers?
Answers
Answer:

Find all x-intercepts and y-intercepts of the graph of the function . f(x) = - x ^ 3 + x ^ 2 + 12x If there is more than one answer, separate them with commas. Click on "None" if applicable.
Answers
Answer:
The y-intercept is (0,0)
The x-intercepts are (-3,0), (0,0), and (4,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have the function:
[tex]f(x)=-x^3+x^2+12x[/tex]
And we want to solve for the x- and y-intercepts.
Y)
To solve for the y-intercept, recall that the y-intercept is when the graph touches the y-axis. At that point, the x values is 0. Thus, to find the x-intercept, substitute 0 for x:
[tex]f(x)=-(0)^3+(0)^2+12(0)[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]f(x)=0[/tex]
So, the y-intercept is (0,0)
X)
To solve for the x-intercept(s), set the function equal to 0 and solve for x:
[tex]0=-x^3+x^2+12x[/tex]
First, factor out a negative x:
[tex]0=-x(x^2-x-12)[/tex]
Factor within the parentheses:
[tex]0=-x(x-4)(x+3)[/tex]
Zero Product Property:
[tex]-x=0\text{ or } x-4=0\text{ or } x+3=0[/tex]
Divide by -1 on the first one. Add 4 on the second one. And subtract 3 on the right:
[tex]x=0\text{ or } x=4\text{ or } x=-3[/tex]
So, our x-intercepts are:
[tex](-3,0), (0,0), (4,0)[/tex]
And we're done :)

The formula B = 100 + 75m gives the balance (B) of a bank account after (m) months of saving. Solve for m and then use your solution to find the number of months you would need to save to have a balance of $700.
Answers
Answer:
8 Months
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula in the problem (B = 100 + 75m) can be written as this:
(B-100)/75 = M
The problem gives us the balance (B=700), which we can plug into our new formula to find the number of months (m).
(700-100)/75 = M
M = 8

Jonas is planning out his route for an upcoming race. He uses negative numbers to represent points before the finish line and positive numbers to represent points after the finish line.
On Jonas's map, there is a bridge at -91 3/4 meters, and his wife is watching him at 14 1/2 meters.
What do 0 meters represent?
Answers
Answer:
The finish line
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because, since negative numbers are used to represent points before the finish line, and positive numbers are used to represent points after the finish line, the finish line can only be represented by the number zero. Since on Jonas' map, there is a bridge at -91 3/4 metres, therefore, the bridge is 91 3/4 metres before the finish line. And, since his wife is watching at 14 1/2 metres, since this number is positive, she is 14 1/2 metres after the finish line. So, the finish line itself, will be represented by 0 metres since this is indicated a change from negative to positive.
