Which of the following describes the function x^4-3?

(answer choices shown in picture)

the formula of a slope:

from a table we have

substitute:

the slope of f(x) is -1.

the graph of funcfion g(x) is a horizontal line. the slope of a horizontal line is equal 0. therefore the slope of g(x) is 0.

-1 < 0

answer: the function g(x) has the greatest slope.

None of those are technically correct. 9.7 x 104 is actually 1,008.8, but if that answer was a choice, it would be that one. if you meant 9.7 times maybe a thousand or more or divided by 10 or more, than the answer choices would be correct, but other than that, they actually arent.

Ok here we go ..there are plenty of ways to solve such math problems but we will go for the smartest and easiest ..5x+2y=7  -2x+6y=9we rearrange them into the following ..by multiplying the 1st equation by 2 it becomes 10x + 4y = 14we rearrange it and so it becomes 10x = 14 - 4yas for the second equation we multiply it by 5 and rearrange it so it becomes as to the following ..-10x + 30y = 45rearranging so 10x = 30y -45now 10x equals both 14 - 4y and 30y -45so   14 - 4y = 30y -4531 = 26yy= 31/26 = 1.19 or around 1.2so by now we can calculate x easily as  -2x+6y=9so 2x = 6y -9 = 6 * 31/26 - 9 = -1.84  then x = - 0.92 or around -0.9best luck!
