Determine the linear function f knowing the f(20) =10 and f(10) =5.
Added by Ashanti F.
Step 1
The slope m can be found using the formula m = (f(x2) - f(x1)) / (x2 - x1). Here, x1 = 20, f(x1) = 10, x2 = 10, and f(x2) = 5. Substituting these values into the formula, we get m = (5 - 10) / (10 - 20) = -5 / -10 = 0.5. Show more…
