Find the slope of the line that passes through (3, 7) and (6, 8).

Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define general form of equation of line

An equation of a straight line on two-dimensional plane could be represented in form of: y = Mx + b, with M is slope and b is y-intercept

Step 2: Set up the system to solve for slope M of equation of line

That equation passes 2 points, which are represented in form of (x, y), (3, 7) and (6, 8).

Substitute these values of x and y into the original equation in step 1:

7 = 3M + b

8 = 6M + b

Step 3: Solve the system of equations in step 2 for M

Subtract 1st equation from 2nd equation:

8 - 7 = 6M - 3M + b - b

Simplify both sides:

1 = 3M

Divide both sides by 3:

=> M = 1/3

Hope this helps!

Answer:

[tex]slope = \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

Alexandra and Austin applied to the same university. They looked up the average SAT score of students admitted to that university. Alexandra's SAT score was 40 points above the average score. Austin's SAT score was 330 points below the average score. Which expression represents the difference in their scores?

Answers

Answer:

x= (y+40)-(y-330)

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the information provided, the difference in their scores would be the result of subtracting Austin's SAT score from Alexandra's SAT score.

Then, as Alexandra's SAT score was 40 points above the average score this means that you have to add 40 to the average score to get her result. Also, as Austin's SAT score was 330 points below the average score, this means that you have to subtract 330 from the average score. With this you can write the expression:

x= difference in their scores

y= average score

x= (y+40)-(y-330)

what is the equation of the following line? be sure to scroll down first to see all answer options

Answers

Answer:

The equation for the following graph:

[tex]y = -\frac{1}{5}x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

- You first need to find the slope by using the slope formula:

[tex]m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}[/tex]

(where [tex](x_{1},y_{1})[/tex] is the first point and [tex](x_{2}, y_{2})[/tex] is the second point)

-Use the given points [tex](0,0)[/tex] and [tex](10, -2)[/tex] from the graph for the formula:

[tex]m = \frac{-2 - 0}{10 - 0}[/tex]

Then, you solve:

[tex]m = \frac{-2 - 0}{10 - 0}[/tex]

[tex]m = -\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

After you have found the slope, use the slope [tex]-\frac{1}{5}[/tex] and the first point [tex](0,0)[/tex] for the point-slope formula:

[tex]y - y_{1} = m ( x - x_{1})[/tex]

(where [tex]m[/tex] is the slope and [tex](x_{1}, y_{1})[/tex] is the first point)

[tex]y - 0 = -\frac{1}{5} ( x - 0)[/tex]

Then, you solve:

[tex]y - 0 = -\frac{1}{5} ( x - 0)[/tex]

[tex]y - 0 = -\frac{1}{5}x - 0[/tex]

[tex]y - 0 + 0 = -\frac{1}{5} - 0 + 0[/tex]

[tex]y = -\frac{1}{5}x[/tex]

So, the equation for the following graph is [tex]y = -\frac{1}{5}x[/tex] .

f(x)= square root x-3

Answers

I would use a graphing tool like desmos or geogebra, or a texas instruments graphing calculator, there a number of tools out there. The first two options are free online tools. Using technology to graph is much preferred over doing it by hand.

If you must do it by hand, then the idea is to plug in various values of x to get corresponding values of y. For instance, if x = 7, then

y = sqrt(x-3)

y = sqrt(7-3)

y = sqrt(4)

y = 2

So the point (x,y) = (7,2) is on this curve. Repeat for other x values to get more points. Then plot the points all on the same xy grid. Lastly, draw a curve through those points. The more points you have, the more accurate the graph. Use graphing technology to help confirm you have the right graph.

As for the question of one-to-one, you are looking to see if the horizontal line test fails or not. After fully graphing y = sqrt(x-3), try to construct a single horizontal line that will pass through more than one point on the curve. You'll find that such a task is not possible in this case; therefore, this graph passes the horizontal line test and consequently the graph is one-to-one.

An example where a graph is not one-to-one would be a parabola. It is possible to pass a single horizontal line through more than one point on a parabola.

__________________________________________________________________

Answers

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The smallest size has area b^2

A = s^2

A= b^2 = 24^2 =576 m^2

The middle size has area a^2

1024 = a^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(1024) =sqrt(a^2)

32 = a

The side length is 32 m

To find the side length of the largest pasture use the pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

32^2 + 24^2= c^2

1024+576 = c^2

1600 = c^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(1600) = sqrt(c^2)

40 = c

The side length is 40 m

The area is 1600 m^2

It is fair since the areas are the same.1600 m^2 = 1600 m^2

Answers

Step-by-step explanation and answers:

300 articles at a total cost of $1500:

        $1500 / 300 = $5 / article

Sells 260 articles at a price 20% above this ^ price:

         20% of $5 is $1,   so $5 + $1 = $6

               Then he sells 260 articles at the price of ^ $6

               260 * $6 = $1560

Each of the remaining articles is sold at a price that's 50% of the 260 he sold.

         He sold those for $6,  so he would now sell the last 40 for $3

               From the remaining 40 articles, he makes 40 * $3, or $120

The shopkeeper made $1560 + $120 = $1680,  which is $180 more than he bought them for ($1500)

Therefore, he made a profit percentage of $180 / $1500,  (the amount of profit over the amount spent).

He made a profit percentage, compared to the cost price, of 12%.

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = (2-1)/(8-4)

    = 1/4

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 1/4x +b

Substitute a point into the equation

1 = 1/4(4) +b

1 = 1+b

b= 0

y = 1/4x

A tennis match was delayed because of rain did officials were not prepared for the delay they cover the 25ft by 20ft court with 13ft by 10ft plastic covers how many plastic covers were needed to cover the cord from the rain

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The 25ft by 20ft court needs to be covered.

First consider half of the court, meaning 25ft by 10ft.

To cover 25ft by 10ft you can easily place two 13ft by 10ft covers next to each other = 26 ft by 10ft

There is a 1ft overlap, but that seems reasonably acceptable.

If you do the same for the other half, then you will have covered the entire court from the rain.

So in total you need 4 plastic 13ft by 10ft covers, to cover the 25ft by 20ft cord from the rain.

This indicates that the officials will need at least 2 covers of 13ft by 10 ft to cover the court

Data;

dimension of court = 25ft by 20ftdimension of cover = 13ft by 10 ft

Area of a Rectangle

Assuming the court is a rectangle from its given dimensions, we can proceed by dividing the dimension of the court by the dimension of the cover

[tex]25ft by 20 ft / 13ft by 10 ft = 2[/tex]

This would give us a value approximately 2.

This indicates that the officials will need at least 2 covers of 13ft by 10 ft to cover the court.
