Find the equation of a line containing the points (−2,−4) and (1,−3).

Answers

Answer 1
Using the points, we can make a system of equations:
-4 = m(-2) + b
-3 = m(1) + b —> -3 = m + b —> -3 - m = b


Substitute (-3 - m) for b:
-4 = m(-2) + (-3 - m)
-4 = -2m -3 - m
-1 = -3m
1/3 = m


Plug in the solved m value to solve for b:
-4 = (1/3)(-2) + b
-4 = -2/3 + b
-3 1/3 = b

Write your final equation:
y = 1/3x - 10/3

The dot plot ( C )is solved and each dot represents one student's response

What is a dot plot?

A dot plot, also known as a dot chart or dot graph, is a type of data visualization that displays the frequency of values in a dataset. It is a simple graphing technique that uses dots to represent data points on a horizontal or vertical axis.

Each data point in the dataset is represented by a dot placed above the corresponding value on the axis. If there are multiple data points with the same value, the dots are stacked vertically above that value. The resulting plot shows the distribution of data points along the axis, with the height of the stack of dots representing the frequency of each value.

Given data ,

Let the data of the number of pets owned by student be represented as A

Now , the value of A = { 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 8 }

The frequency of 0 = 3

The frequency of 1 = 4

The frequency of 2 = 3

The frequency of 3 = 2

The frequency of 4 = 2

The frequency of 8 = 1

In this dot plot, each dot represents one student's response. The number on the left indicates how many pets the students reported owning, and the dots are arranged vertically above that number.

For example, three students reported owning 2 pets, so there are three dots arranged above the number 2. This type of plot is useful for displaying the frequency of different values in a dataset.

Hence , the dot plot is solved

Find the equation of a line that passes through the point (-2,1) and has a gradient of -3.
Leave your answer in the form

Answers

A straight line passing through the point (-2,1) and having a gradient of -3 yields the equation y = -3x - 5.

We know that a straight line is an infinitely long line with no curves on it. A straight line's equation is

y = mx + c...(1), where m is the gradient of the straight line and c is a constant.

Given that the gradient of the given straight line = m = -3.

Putting this value in (1), we get

y = -3x + c ...(2)

Again, the given straight line passes through the point (-2,1). So, we can put x = -2 and y = 1 to get the value of the constant c.

So, 1 = (-3)(-2) + c

i.e. 6 + c = 1

i.e. c = 1 - 6 = -5

(2) can be written as

y = -3x - 5

Therefore the equation of the given straight line is

y = -3x - 5

Answers

The answer for each of the differentiation are; f'(-6) = 432;  f⁻¹(y) = ∛((y + 5)/4); df⁻¹/dy = 1/432

How to differentiate functions?

1) f(x) = 4x³ - 5

We will differentiate it to get;

f'(x) = df/dx = 12x²

f'(-6) = 12(-6)²

f'(-6) = 432

2) We are given the formula;

x = f⁻¹(y)

Thus;

y = 4x³ - 5

4x³ = y + 5

x³ = (y + 5)/4

x = ∛((y + 5)/4)

f⁻¹(y) = ∛((y + 5)/4)

c)  f⁻¹(y) = ∛((y + 5)/4)

df⁻¹/dy = -1/12y²

At f(-6), we have;

Step-by-step explanation:

Due to lines r & s being parallel to each other, we can apply the rule of alternate interior angles to solve for y in this problem.

Applying this, we'll be obtaining the equation that of:

[tex]116=15y-4[/tex]

We now simply solve for y.

[tex]120=15y\\y=8[/tex]

Therefore, y is equal to 8.

This can be checked by plugging it into the equation:

x² + 12 is equivalent to the polynomial (x + 2[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]i) (x + 2[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]i).

What are Polynomials?

Polynomials are defined as algebraic expressions consisting of constants, variables and exponents combined using operations like addition, multiplication, subtraction and division.

The given expression is x² + 12.

We have the identity (a + b) (a - b) = a² - b²

(x + 2[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]i) (x + 2[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]i) = x² - (2[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]i)²

                                = x² - (2² × √3² × i²)

We know that i² = -1, where i is the imaginary number in complex numbers

(x + 2[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]i) (x + 2[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]i) = x² - (4 × 3 × -1)

                                = x² + 12

Find and prove an inequality relating 100n and n^{3} .

Answers

An inequality relating 100n and is 100n ≥ n³ for n ≤ 10 and 100n ≤ n³ for n ≥ 10.

What is inequality?

An inequality is comparison of  two values, showing if one is less than, greater than, or simply not equal to another value.

Since 100n andfor n = 1, 2, 3, . . . 9, 10, 11 are 100, 200, 300, . . . 900, 1000, 1100 and 1, 8, 27, . . . 729, 1000, 1331 respectively.

Therefore, an inequality relating 100n and n³ will be 100n ≥ n³ for n ≤ 10 and 100n ≤ n³ for n ≥ 10.

Induction hypothesis:

Suppose 100n ≤ k³ for some positive integer k ≥ 10.

We need to show that 100( k + 1 ) ≤ ( k + 1 )³ = k³ + 3k² +3k + 1.

Note 100( k + 1 ) = 100k + 100 ≤ k³ + 100

                                                 ≤ k³ + 3k²    (∵ k ≥ 10 )

                                                 ≤ k³ + 3k² + 3k

                                                 ≤ k³ + 3k²+3k + 1

So 100( k + 1 ) ≤ ( k + 1 )³, which is true.

Hence by the principle of mathematical induction, 100n ≤ k³ for every integer  k ≥ 10.
