Question

How does h (x) =-0.1x-5 change over the interval from x=2 to x=4

Answer 1

The given expression is,

`h(x)==0.1x-5`

Let us first consider, x = 2. We have,

`h(2)=0.1*2-5=-4.98`

Now, let us take x = 4, we have,

`h(4)=0.1*4-5=-4.6`

So the range is, -4.98 to -4.6. So, h (x) decreases by 0.3
