What is the slope of a segment whose endpoints are labeled (-2a, 0) and (0, -2b)?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

use the slope formula Faith,  

point P1 (-2a,0)  in the form (x1,y1)

point P2(0,-2b)  in the form (x2,y2)

slope = m

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

m = (-2b - 0 ) / (0-(-2a))

m = -2b  / 2a

m = - b/a

they are trying to confuse  you with the  "a" and "b" variables in the problem, but just use the rules you know to solve what you can :)

Answer from Gauthmath

Jin bought a pair of pants that cost $47.83. The sale tax in her state is 7.43 % what is the total cost of the pants ?

(show your work) ​

Answers

Answer:

$51.38

Step-by-step explanation:

7.43% of 47.83=(rounded to the nearest hundredth) 3.55

7.43/100*x/47.83

x=3.55

because we are solving for x

we can also cross check by taking out the percentage

x/100*3.55/47.83

47.83x=355

x=7.42212000836

which is about 7.43%

47.83+3.55= 51.38

You just decided to open a savings account and went to the bank and made an initial deposit. You decide to save another set amount each month. Without any interest being paid, the equation =20+50





represents the amount of money,
y
, in your savings account after
m
months. Select what the slope and y-intercept represent in this problem.

(Choose 2)

Answers

Answer:

Options (1) and (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation for the deposit in the saving account is,

y = 20x + 50

Here, y = Amount of money in the account

20 = money added in the account every month

50 = Initial deposit

By comparing this equation with the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line,

y = mx + b

Here, slope m = money added in the account every month

And b = y-intercept

Therefore, Options (1) and (4) will be the answer.

Answers

Answer:   [tex]g(x) = -\frac{4}{x+5}+4[/tex]

===========================================================

Explanation:

We start with y = 1/x

Vertically stretching it by a factor of 4 gets us to y = 4/x. Simply multiply the right hand side by 4.

Then reflecting over the y axis means we replace every x with -x to get y = 4/(-x) but that simplifies to y = -4/x. So we can see that any y axis reflection is identical to an x axis reflection, and vice versa. This is due to the symmetry of hyperbolas like this.

Next, we replace x with (x+5) so that we shift the xy axis 5 units to the right, giving the illusion the curve shifts 5 units to the left.

Lastly, we tack on a +4 to shift the graph up 4 units.

The final result is [tex]g(x) = -\frac{4}{x+5}+4[/tex]

Answers

Answer: No slope / undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of a slope.

The slope is the measure of the steepness of a line.

The basic formula of slope is [Rise / Run] which is basically [Y] value (vertical) over [X] value (horizontal)

If you are still confused, please refer to the attachment below for the full formula.

Solve:

(7, -2)

Slope = (1 - (-2)) / (7-7)

Slope = (3) / 0

Slope = Undefined

Indeed, it is a vertical line. By definition, a vertical line has no slope.

Answer:

y = 1/(x+1)   -5

X cannot be -1 because the denominator would go to zero

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 1/(x+5) -1

y =  1/(x+5) -1

Exchange x and y and solve for y

x =  1/(y+5) -1

x+1 = 1/(y+5)

Multiply by (y+5)

(x+1) (y+5) = 1

Divide by (x+1)

y+5 = 1/(x+1)

Subtract 5

y = 1/(x+1)   -5

X cannot be -1 because the denominator would go to zero

4cos^4(x) – 5cos^2(x) + 1 = 0 from [0, 2π)
please show steps!!

Answers

Answer:

x = 0, π/3, 2π/3,  π,  4π/3,  5π/3

Step-by-step explanation:

4cos^4(x) – 5cos^2(x) + 1 = 0

(4cos^2(x) - 1)(cos^2(x) - 1) = 0

When 4cos^2(x) - 1 = 0

cos^2(x) = 1/4

cos x = +/-1/2

so x = π/3, 2π/3, 4π/3, 5π/3.

When cos^2x - 1 = 0

cos x = +/- 1

x =  0, π.

x

The solution is : x = 0, π/3, 2π/3,  π,  4π/3,  5π/3

What is  simplification?

Simplify simply means to make it simple. In mathematics, simply or simplification is reducing the expression/fraction/problem in a simpler form. It makes the problem easy with calculations and solving.

here, we have,

given that,

4cos^4(x) – 5cos^2(x) + 1 = 0 from [0, 2π)

so, we get,

4cos^4(x) – 5cos^2(x) + 1 = 0

(4cos^2(x) - 1)(cos^2(x) - 1) = 0

When 4cos^2(x) - 1 = 0

cos^2(x) = 1/4

cos x = +/-1/2

so x = π/3, 2π/3, 4π/3, 5π/3.

When cos^2x - 1 = 0

cos x = +/- 1

x =  0, π.

Hence, The solution is : x = 0, π/3, 2π/3,  π,  4π/3,  5π/3.

4x^4-6x^3+6x+3/x-3
Which term in the quotient of this expression contains an error?

Answers

Answer:

78

Correct term:60

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

[tex]\frac{4x^4-6x^3+6x+3}{x-3}[/tex]

The quotient of this expression is given by

[tex]4x^3+6x^2+18x+78+\frac{183}{x-3}[/tex]

We have to find the term in this expression  which contains an error.

[tex]\frac{4x^4-6x^3+6x+3}{x-3}[/tex]

The quotient of this expression is given by

[tex]=4x^3+6x^2+18x+60[/tex]

[tex]Dividend=Divisor\times quotient+ remainder[/tex]

Using the formula

[tex]4x^4-6x^3+6x+3=(x-3)(4x^3+6x^2+18x+60)+\frac{183}{x-3}[/tex]

We can see that in the given expression there is 60 in place of 78.

The error in the expression of quotient is 78.

Calculate the axis of symmetry in the equation Y = (x+1) (x-4)

Come on anyone please helppppppp.

Answers

Answer:

Every parabola has a turning point called the axis of symmetry,so for this question you just have to find the turning points

x turning point= -b/2a,and the y turning point is gotten by replacing the value of x in the equation

y=(x+1)(x-4)

=x^2-3x-4

a is 1,b is -3 and c is -4

x= -(-3)/2(1)

=1.5

and y=x^2-3x-4

=1.5^2-3(1.5)-4

= -6.25

therefore the axis of symmetry is (1.5,-6.25)
