A.) (8, -7) and (5, -3). B.) (-5, 9) and (5, 11).
C.). (-8, -4) and (-4, -9).

Show your work.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:A) -4/3 B) 1/2 C) -5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

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

For A) let (x1, y1) = (8, -7), (x2, y2) = (5, -3)

Slope = (-3 -(-7)) / (5 - 8) = 4/-3

For B) let (x1, y1) = (-5, 9), (x2, y2) = (5, 11)

Slope = (11 - 9) / (5 - (-5)) = 2/10 = 1/2

For C) let (x1, y1) = (-8, -4), (x2, y2) = (-4, -9)

Slope = (-9 -(-4)) / (-4 - (-8)) = -5/4

Answers

Answer:  1) D      2) B

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The denominator cannot equal zero, Factor the denominator to find the zeros.  n³ - 4n² + 3n = 0

           n(n - 3)(n - 1) = 0

       n=0  n-3=0   n-1=0

       n=0    n=3      n=1

2) In order to be a rational expression, it must be in the form [tex]\dfrac{a}{b}[/tex] where both a and b are integers.

Since [tex]\sqrtb[/tex][tex]\sqrt b[/tex] is irrational and not an integer, then the expressions containing an irrational term after simplified cannot result in an integer.

Therefore, options (i) and (iv) are not rational expressions.

Option (iii) contains b as an exponent.  Since there is no information about b, it could be a fraction, which means it could be an irrational number.

What is the slope and the y-intercept of the line on the graph below? On a coordinate plane, a line goes through points (0, 1) and (4, 0).

Answers

The slope is the change in Y over the change in x:

Slope = (0-1) / 4-0) = -1/4

Slope = -1/4

Y intercept is the Y value when x is equal to 0. In the point (0,1) x is 0 and y is 1, so the y-intercept is 1

Jayden is driving on a long road trip. He currently has 11 gallons of gas in his car. Each hour that he drives, his car uses up 0.75 gallons of gas. How much gas would be in the tank after driving for 4 hours? How much gas would be left after t hours?

Answers

Answer:

a. 8 gallons

b. (11-0.75t) gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Here in this question, we are told that the total amount of fuel in the fuel tank is 11 gallons and the car consumes 0.75 gallon per hour. We are interested in knowing the amount of fuel left in the tank after driving for four hours.

We proceed as follows;

Since 0.75 gallon is consumed in an hour, the amount of fuel consumed in 4 hours would be the amount consumed in an hour * 4 hours

Mathematically, that would be 0.75 * 4 = 3 gallon

Now, the amount of fuel left is simply the difference between the initial amount of fuel in the tank minus the amount of fuel present after 4 hours.

That would be; 11 - 3 = 8 gallons

b. Like above, we want to know the amount of fuel left after t hours.

Since 0.75 is used up per hour, the amount used up in t hours would be 0.75 * t = 0.75t

Now, the amount of fuel that would be left in the tank would be the difference between what we had initially and what was used up.

Mathematically, that would be 11- 0.75t

Answers

Answer:

3, because [tex]y=-\frac{1}{2}x+9[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at this graph, we can start to determine the equation for it.

The y-intercept of this graph is 9, therefore there will be a constant of 9.

We can find the slope by looking at rise over run. It vertically travels -1 for every 2 horizontally. So the slope is [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex].

Making this into an equation gets us  [tex]y=-\frac{1}{2}x+9[/tex].

Now we can substitute 12 into this equation as x.

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{2}(12)+9\\ y=-6+9\\y=3[/tex]

In a survey of 119 students, it was found that 16 drink neither coke nor Pepsi 69 drinks coke and39 drink pepsi
How many students drink Coke only?
How many students drink Pepsi only?
Show the above information in a Venn diagram.​

Answers

Answer:

64 students drink coke only

34 students drink pepsi only

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the number of students that drink coke only and number of students that drink pepsi only.

Let the number of students that drink both be x

Mathematically,

n(μ) = 119 where μ represents the universal set

n(P) = 39

n(C) = 69

n(C n P) = x

n(C n P)’ = 16

n(P) only = 39 - x

n( C) only = 69 - x

Mathematically;

119 = (69-x) + (39-x) + x + 16

119 = 69 + 39 + 16 -2x + x

119 = 124 - x

x = 124 - 119

x = 5

So the number of students drinking pepsi only = 39 -5 = 34

The number of students drinking coke only = 69-5 = 64

Answers

Answer:

A = 2, B = 3 and C = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

2x + 3y = 2 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

3y = - 2x + 2 ( divide all terms by 3 )

y = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (2, 0) into the partial equation

0 = - [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] + c ⇒ c = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

y = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] ← in slope- intercept form

Multiply through by 3

3y = - 2x + 4 ( add 2x to both sides )

2x + 3y = 4 ← in standard form

with A = 2, B = 3 and C = 4

What effect will replacing x with (x – 7)have on the graph of the equation y = = (x + 4)??
A. slides the graph 3 units down
B. slides the graph 3 units up
C. slides the graph 7 units right
D. slides the graph 3 units right

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

When you graph the first equation y = (x + 4) it will have a x-intercept of -4 and a y-intercept of 4.  

When you replace x with (x-7) the equation will be converted into

y = ((x-7)+4)

y = x-3

When you graph this you see it has a x-intercept of 3 and a y-intercept of -3

To find the distance add the 2 x values together:

-4 + (-3) = ?

-4 -3 = ?

-7 = ?

Therefore the graph will shift units right

So, NF = FL = LI = NI = IE = ES = SD = DI = DR = RA = AG = GD = [tex]a[/tex] units
