Find the slope of f(x)=5x-4

slope, m = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the slope-intercept form of a linear equation can be written:

y = mx + b  or f(x) = mx + b

where m is the slope of the line.

in our case, we are given

f(x) = 5x - 4

if we compare this with the general equations above, we can see that

slope = m = 5

hence the slope is 5

step-by-step explanation:

the original amount doesn't ''re just looking for the time it takes for 1/2 of the substance to we have

(1/2) =)     take the ln   of both sides

ln (1/2)   = )   and we can write

ln(1/2) = ) lne     and lne   = 1     so we have

ln(1/2) = -.1092t     divide both sides by -.1092

t = ln(1/2)/-.1092 = about 6.347 days = about 6.3 days (rounded)
