Calculate the exact slope m (rather than a decimal approximation) of the straight line through the given pair of points, if defined. Try to do the problem without writing anything down except the answer. (If an answer is undefined, enter UNDEFINED.)
(6, 7) and (7, 1)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

m = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x.

Teachers use the phrase "rise over run". In this case the rise is negative as the line moves from a higher y value to a lower y value as x increases.

(y-final - y-initial)/(x-final - x-initial)

You are given two points on the line and just plug them in.

(1-7)/(7-6) = -6/1 = -6

Find the x- and y-intercepts of the following line: 4x − 3y = 12

Answers

Answer:

x-intercept: (3,0)

y-intercept: (0,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x and y-intercepts, we first need to understand what they are. X and y-intercepts are points on the line that passes through the x-axis and y-axis. When a point is an x-intercept, it passes through the x-axis. This means the x-coordinate is an integer, while the y-coordinate is always 0. This can be denoted by (x,0). When a point is a y-intercept, it passes through the y-axis. This means the y-coordinate is an integer, while the x-coordinate is always 0. This can be denoted by (0,y).

Now that we know what x and y-intercepts are, we can plug in x=0 and y=0 to find the intercepts.

x-intercept

4x-3y=12            [plug in y=0]

4x-3(0)=12          [multiply]

4x-0=12              [add both sides by 0]

4x=12                 [divide both sides by 4]

x=3

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

y-intercept

4x-3y=12            [plug in x=0]

4(0)-3y=12         [multiply]

0-3y=12             [subtract both sides by 0]

-3y=12               [divide both sides by -3]

y=-4

Therefore, the x-intercept is (3,0) and y-intercept is (0,-4).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The description is too ambiguous to reconstruct the diagram. You need to post the actual diagram.

That diagram is just one way to view division by a fraction. An easier way: DIVIDING by a fraction is the same as MULTIPLYING by the upside-down fraction. For example,

(1/2) ÷ (1/4) = (1/2) × (4/1) = 2

Hi there!

The y-intercept of a line represents its initial value. On a graph, the y-intercept would represent the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis.

For example, if an equation were to model the amount of money someone had in their bank account overtime starting from the day they opened their account, the y-intercept would represent the original amount of money they had.

The thicknesses of 81 randomly selected aluminum sheets were found to have a variance of 3.23. Construct the 98% confidence interval for the population variance of the thicknesses of all aluminum sheets in this factory. Round your answers to two decimal places

Answers

Answer:

The confidence interval for the population variance of the thicknesses of all aluminum sheets in this factory is Lower limit = 2.30, Upper limit = 4.83.

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population variance is given as below:

[tex][(n - 1)\times S^{2} / X^{2} \alpha/2, n-1 ] < \alpha < [(n- 1)\times S^{2} / X^{2} 1- \alpha/2, n- 1 ][/tex]

We are given

Confidence level = 98%

Sample size = n = 81

Degrees of freedom = n – 1 = 80

Sample Variance = S^2 = 3.23

[tex]X^{2}_{[\alpha/2, n - 1]} = 112.3288\\\X^{2} _{1 -\alpha/2,n- 1} = 53.5401[/tex]

(By using chi-square table)

[(n – 1)*S^2 / X^2 α/2, n– 1 ] < σ^2 < [(n – 1)*S^2 / X^2 1 -α/2, n– 1 ]

[(81 – 1)* 3.23 / 112.3288] < σ^2 < [(81 – 1)* 3.23/ 53.5401]

2.3004 < σ^2 < 4.8263

Lower limit = 2.30

Upper limit = 4.83.

Let P(1,2,1), Q(1,0,-1), R(2,2,0) be the vertices of a parallelogram with adjacent sides PQ and PR. Find the other vertex S.

Answers

Given:

The vertices of a parallelogram are P(1,2,1), Q(1,0,-1), R(2,2,0).

PQ and PR are the adjacent sides of the parallelogram.

To find:

The coordinates of vertex S.

Solution:

We know that, the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

Let the coordinates of the vertex S are (a,b,c).

In the given parallelogram PS and QR are the diagonals. It means their midpoints are same.

[tex]\left(\dfrac{1+a}{2},\dfrac{2+b}{2},\dfrac{1+c}{2}\right)=\left(\dfrac{1+2}{2},\dfrac{0+2}{2},\dfrac{-1+0}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\left(\dfrac{1+a}{2},\dfrac{2+b}{2},\dfrac{1+c}{2}\right)=\left(\dfrac{3}{2},\dfrac{2}{2},\dfrac{-1}{2}\right)[/tex]

On comparing both sides, we get

[tex]\dfrac{1+a}{2}=\dfrac{3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]1+a=3[/tex]

[tex]a=3-1[/tex]

[tex]a=2[/tex]

Similarly,

[tex]\dfrac{2+b}{2}=\dfrac{2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]2+b=2[/tex]

[tex]b=2-2[/tex]

[tex]b=0[/tex]

And,

[tex]\dfrac{1+c}{2}=\dfrac{-1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]1+c=-1[/tex]

[tex]c=-1-1[/tex]

[tex]c=-2[/tex]

Therefore, the coordinates of vertex S are (2,0,-2).

The gradient of the tangent to the curve y = ax + bx^3 at the point (2, -4) is 6.
Determine the unknowns a and b.
a=?
b=?

Answers

Answer:

a = -6

b = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient of the tangent to the curve y = ax + bx^3, will be:

dy/dx = a + 3bx²

at (2, -4)

dy/dx = a+3b(2)²

dy/dx = a+12b

Since the gradient at the point is 6, then;

a+12b = 6 ....1

Substitute x = 2 and  y = -4 into the original expression

-4 = 2a + 8b

a + 4b = -2 ...2

a+12b = 6 ....1

Subtract

4b - 12b = -2-6

-8b = -8

b = -8/-8

b = 1

Substitute b = 1 into equation 1

Recall from 1 that a+12b = 6

a+12(1) = 6

a = 6 - 12

a = -6

Hence a = -6, b = 1

a gym class has 10 boys and 12 girls. how many ways can a team of 6 be selected if the team must have the same number of boys and girls

Answers

Answer:

The number of ways of selecting the team is 26,400 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

total number boys in the gym, b = 10 boys

total number of girls in the gym, g = 12 girls

number of team to be selected, n = 6

If there must equal number of boys and girls in the team, then the team must consist of 3 boys and 3 girls.

Number of ways of choosing 3 boys from the total of 10 = [tex]10_C_3[/tex]

Number of ways of choosing 3 girls from a total of 12 = [tex]12_C_3[/tex]

The number of ways of combining the two possibilities;

[tex]n = 10_C_3 \times 12_C_3\\\\n = \frac{10!}{7!3!} \ \times \ \frac{12!}{9!3!} \\\\n = \frac{10\times 9 \times 8}{3\times 2} \ \times \ \frac{12\times 11 \times 10}{3\times 2} \\\\n = 120 \times 220\\\\n = 26,400 \ ways[/tex]

Therefore, the number of ways of selecting the team is 26,400 ways.

If the length is 10 cm and the width of a rectangle is 3cm , what is the area

Answers

Answer: 30cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is determined by length times width

Equation: A=LW

10cm×3cm = 30cm

Answer: 30 centimeters


Step 1: Write an equation

Before we can solve for the area, we must first write an equation. In this question we are asked to examine a rectangle. Much like a square, rectangles follow the standard formula for area. For rectangles, area is equal to length times width. Let’s put this into an equation now.

= ×

This is our equation!

Step 2: Substitute numbers

Now that we have our equation, let’s revise it by substituting the information given to us in the question. Since we are solving for the area we need to leave as a variable. Instead, let’s change the to 10 and the to 3, as told in the question. Let’s do this now.

= ×
= 10 × 3

Step 3: Solve for area

For the final step, let’s solve for the area. We can begin by rewriting the equation.

= 10 × 3

Let’s end by solving the question on the right side of the equation. This will bring us our answer.

= 10 × 3
= 30


This is your answer! The area is equal to 30. Hope this helps! Comment below for more questions.
