What is the slope of the line that passes through
(−2, 3) and (5, −6)
a.-1/2
b.−1
c.-9/7
d. I don't know.

Answers

Answer 1

Start with the slope formula.

m = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

m = -6 - 3 / 5 - -2

m = -9 / 7

So the slope is -9/7.

A relay race is 1 3 4 miles long. Each relay team has 4 runners. If each runner runs the same distance in the race, how far will each runner run? Choose the correct answer.

Answers

Answer: 7/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance of the relay race = 1 3/4 miles

Number of runners for the relay team = 4 runners

Distance to be run by each runner will be:

= Distance of the relay race / Number of runners

= 1 3/4 ÷ 4

= 7/4 ÷ 4

= 7/4 × 1/4

= 7/16

Each runner will run 7/16 miles

Una limusina cuesta $ 85 para alquilar por 3 horas más un 7% de impuesto sobre las ventas. Cúal es el costo total
alquilar una limusina por 6 horas?

Answers

Answer:

$181.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Si cuesta 85 dólares por 3 horas, queremos duplicarlo para obtener la cantidad por 6 horas, que es 170 dólares. Esto es antes del impuesto a las ventas. Puede encontrar la cantidad después del impuesto a las ventas multiplicando 170 por 1.07. Hace esto porque el 100 por ciento del costo sería 170 por 1 y el 7 por ciento es .07, por lo que si desea el 107 por ciento del costo, debe hacerlo 170 por 1.07. Esto funciona porque toma el 7 por ciento de 170 y lo agrega al costo total. También puede hacer esto 170 veces .07. Luego suma el producto a 170. 181,9 es la respuesta final.

English- If it costs 85 dollars for 3 hours we want to double that to get the amount for 6 hours which is 170 dollars. This is before sales tax. You can find the amount after sales tax by multiplying 170 by 1.07. You do this because 100 percent of the cost would be 170 times 1, and 7 percent is .07, so if you want 107 percent of the cost you want to do 170 times 1.07. This works because it takes 7 percent of 170 and adds it to the total cost. You could also do this by 170 times .07. Then add the product to 170. 181.9 is the final answer.

Find the slope of each of the two lines using the formula

Then if the slopes are the same, they’re parallel, and if they are the opposite reciprocal they are perpendicular. If they aren’t either of those options then it’s neither

Let me know if this helped!

Answer:

  21.  perpendicular

  22.  neither

  23.  parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

It can help to plot the points on a graph and draw lines through them. This can also let you count grid squares, which can make it easier to find the slope.

21. See attachment 1. The lines are perpendicular.

QR has a slope of -3/2. ST has a slope of 2/3, the opposite reciprocal.

__

22. See attachment 2. The lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

__

23. The x-coordinates of Q and R are the same, so this is a vertical line at x=-1. The x-coordinates of S and T are also the same, so it is a vertical line at x=11. The two vertical lines are parallel to each other.

Additional comment

When you have a number of problems that all require similar arithmetic, it can be useful to embed that arithmetic in a spreadsheet. You have to enter the numbers somewhere to "show work" or perform a calculation, so you may as well enter them into a spreadsheet that does the calculation for you.

Of course, the slope formula is ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

If you simply show the values of m for each pair of points, you can see if they are equal (lines are parallel). You can also have the spreadsheet compute their product to see if it is -1 (lines are perpendicular). If you get a #DIV/0! error, it means the line is vertical (and the product will also give an error). You can avoid error messages by making the spreadsheet more sophisticated, but that isn't necessary for the purpose here.

Transform the equation.
Shift y=5√x+5 horizontally, 5 units to the right and a stretch by a factor of 4
What is the transformed equation?

Answers

Answer:

1. I assume that stretching vertically by factor of 2 means that every point on the transformed curve is twice as far from the x axis as the original curve.

Imagine that you have plotted y=5x.  you want to change the y scale so that each point on the original curve is two times as high.  For example, one point on the original curve is (1,5).  This point must be relocated to (1,10).  Similarly, the point (2,10) on the original curve must be relocated to (2,20).

You can see that these relocations are accomplished if we transform the function to y=2(5x)=10x.

What is the slope of the line that passes through (1, 4) and (-3, -3)?

Answers

Answer:

y=7/4x+9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the equation for a line that passes through the two points:

(1,4) and (-3,-3).

First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b

Where:

m is the slope, and

b is the y-intercept

First, let's find what m is, the slope of the line...

The slope of a line is a measure of how fast the line "goes up" or "goes down". A large slope means the line goes up or down really fast (a very steep line). Small slopes means the line isn't very steep. A slope of zero means the line has no steepness at all; it is perfectly horizontal.

For lines like these, the slope is always defined as "the change in y over the change in x" or, in equation form:

So what we need now are the two points you gave that the line passes through. Let's call the first point you gave, (1, 4), point #1, so the x and y numbers given will be called [tex]x_1[/tex] and [tex]y_1[/tex]. Or,

Also, let's call the second point you gave, (-3,-3), point #2, so the x and y numbers here will be called [tex]x_2[/tex] and [tex]y_2[/tex]. Or,

Now, just plug the numbers into the formula for m above, like this:

m=  

[tex]\frac{-3-4}{-3-1}[/tex]

m= 7/4

So, we have the first piece to finding the equation of this line, and we can fill it into y=mx+b like this:

y=7/4x+b

Now, what about b, the y-intercept?

To find b, think about what your (x,y) points mean:

(1,4). When x of the line is 1, y of the line must be 4.

(-3,-3). When x of the line is -3, y of the line must be -3.

Because you said the line passes through each one of these two points, right?

Now, look at our line's equation so far: y=7/4x+b. b is what we want, the 7/4 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specifically passes through the two points (1,4) and (-3,-3).

So, why not plug in for x and y from one of our (x,y) points that we know the line passes through? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the two points you gave!.

You can use either (x,y) point you want..the answer will be the same:

(1,4). y=mx+b or 4=7/4 × 1+b, or solving for b: b=4-(7/4)(1). b=9/4.

(-3,-3). y=mx+b or -3=7/4 × -3+b, or solving for b: b=-3-(7/4)(-3). b=9/4.

See! In both cases we got the same value for b. And this completes our problem.

The equation of the line that passes through the points

(1,4) and (-3,-3)

is

y=7/4x+9/4

Important factors to remember regarding the like terms:

'Like terms' are terms whose variables such as 2x and 6x are the same. Also if the variables contain the exponents such as 4 in x⁴, they must be the same too.Since the coefficient doesn't affect likeness, therefore we can say that all constant terms would be treated as the like terms.

Question 7

Given the terms

2b     b⁶     b     x⁴     3b⁶     2x²

From the list of terms, there are two groups of like terms which are:

2b     b       (Like terms containing the variable b)

b⁶      3b⁶    (Like terms containing the variable b with the same exponents)

The remaining two x⁴  and 2x² terms are different from each other and the rest of the terms

Question 8

Given the terms

6     2n     3n²     3m²     n/4     7

From the list of terms, there is one group of like terms which are:

6     7       (Constants Like terms)

2n    n/4   (The terms with the same variable n)

All the remaining terms such as 3n², 3m² are all different from each other and the rest of the terms.

Question 9

Given the terms

10k²      m     3³     p/6     2m

From the list of terms, there are there is one group of like terms which are:

m     2m     (The terms withe same variable m)

All the remaining terms such as 10k², 3³, p/6  are all different from each other and the rest of the terms.

Question 10

Given the terms

6³      y³     3y²     6²     y      5y³

From the list of terms, there are two groups of like terms which are:

y³    5y³     (The terms withe same variable m and exponent)

6³     6²      (Constant like terms. Plz don't confuse the power as all are the same constant terms)

All the remaining terms such as y and 3y² are all different from each other and the rest of the terms.
