The equation y = mx + b goes through the points (6,-2) and (-6,-8).
What is the value of m?
What is the value of b?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

m = 1/2

b = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line of the points (6,-2) and (-6,-8) is y = 1/2x — 5

Answer 2

A line is a one-dimensional shape that is straight, has no thickness, and extends in both directions indefinitely. The value of m and b in the given equation is 0.5 and -5, respectively.

What is the equation of a line?

A line is a one-dimensional shape that is straight, has no thickness, and extends in both directions indefinitely. The equation of a line is given by,

y =mx + c

where,

x is the coordinate of the x-axis,

y is the coordinate of the y-axis,

m is the slope of the line, and

c is the y-intercept.

The given equation is the equation of a line, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept of the line. Therefore, the value of m or the slope of the equation is,

m = [-8 - (-2)] / [-6 - 6] = -6/-12 = 0.5

Now, substitute the value of x, y, and m in the given equation, therefore, the value of b can be written as,

y = mx + b

-2 = 0.5(6) = b

-2 = 3 + b

b = -2 + -3

b = -5

Hence, the value of m and b in the given equation is 0.5 and -5, respectively.

You have a bag which contains only red and green marbles. In this bag with $x^{2} 5$ marbles total, $x 1$ are red. Also, $x-3$ marbles have a scratch on them. The probability of drawing a red marble from the original bag is equal to that of drawing a marble with a scratch from the marbles left in the bag after twenty scratch-free marbles are taken out of the full bag. How many marbles were originally in the bag?

Answers

The original number of marbles in the bag is 30.

The given parameters are:

[tex]Red = x + 1[/tex]

[tex]Total = x^2 + 5[/tex]

The probability of red is:

[tex]P(Red) = \frac{Red}{Total}[/tex]

[tex]P(Red) = \frac{x+1}{x^2 + 5}[/tex]

When 20 marbles were removed, the marbles left are:

[tex]Marbles =Total - 20[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]Marbles =x^2 + 5 - 20[/tex]

[tex]Marbles =x^2 -15[/tex]

The probability of selecting a scratched marble at this point is:

[tex]P(Scratch) = \frac{Scratch}{Marbles}[/tex]

[tex]P(Scratch) = \frac{x -3}{x^2 - 15}[/tex]

This probability equals the probability of red.

i.e.

[tex]P(Red) = P(Scratch)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\frac{x +1}{x^2 + 5} = \frac{x -3}{x^2 - 15}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex](x + 1)(x^2 - 15) = (x - 3)(x^2 + 5)[/tex]

Expand

[tex]x^3 - 15x + x^2 - 15 = x^3 + 5x - 3x^2 - 15[/tex]

Subtract [tex]x^3[/tex] from both sides

[tex]- 15x + x^2 - 15 = 5x - 3x^2 - 15[/tex]

Add 15 to both sides

[tex]- 15x + x^2 = 5x - 3x^2[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]3x^2 + x^2 - 15x - 5x = 0[/tex]

[tex]4x^2 - 20x = 0[/tex]

Divide through by 4

[tex]x^2 - 5x = 0[/tex]

Expand

[tex]x(x - 5) = 0[/tex]

Split

[tex]x = 0[/tex] or [tex]x - 5 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x = 0[/tex] or [tex]x = 5[/tex]

x can't be 0.

So: [tex]x = 5[/tex]

The number of marbles initially is:

[tex]Total = x^2 + 5[/tex]

[tex]Total = 5^2 + 5[/tex]

[tex]Total = 30[/tex]

Hence, the original number of marbles in the bag is 30.

Answer:

$0.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the unit rate.

[tex]\frac{Dollars}{Cookies}=\frac{9}{15}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{15}{15}=\frac{0.6}{1}[/tex]

Therefore, the cost for one cookie is $0.60.

Answer:

$0.60

You need to find the unit rate. Unit rate is a ratio of 1 to another number, written like 1 : ?.

If a box of 15 cookies costs $9, and you want to find the price of one cookie, then you will need to use unit rate.

Start with the ratio of cookies to dollars.

15:9

Now, you need to find out the cost of one cookie. To do this, you will need to divide 9 by 15 (9/15) because you're trying to split 9 into 15 cookies.

9÷15= .6

But, you can't have .6 dollars, so the answer will be $0.60, or 60 cents.

Round the number 553 to the tens place.
is it 550? because 3 is less than 5 so I replace it with a 0

Answers

Answer:

550

Step-by-step explanation:

To round 553 to the tens place, we would need to identify the value of the digit in the ones place.

If the digit in the ones place is greater than 5, we increase the tens place by 1 & convert the ones place into a 0.

If not, we leave the tens place as is & convert the ones place into a 0.

Since 3 is less than 5, we round 553 to 550 so you are correct.

consider (-3, 7):

[tex]7 = (4 \times - 3) + c \\ 7 = - 12 + c \\ c = 19[/tex]

equation:

[tex]y = 4x + 19[/tex]

Answer:

y = 4x + 19

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 )

y = 4x - 1 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 4

Parallel lines have equal slopes, then

y = 4x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 3, 7) into the partial equation

7 = - 12 + c ⇒ c = 7 + 12 = 19

y = 4x + 19 ← equation of parallel line

What is quadratic equation?

A quadratic equation is a second-order polynomial equation in a single variable x , ax²+bx+c=0. with a ≠ 0 .

The discriminant of a quadratic equation in standard form, ax² + bx + c = 0, is given by the expression b² - 4ac.

The given equation is -2x² = -8x+8

a = -2, b = 8, and c = -8.

Substituting these values into the formula for the discriminant, we get:

b² - 4ac = (8)² - 4(-2)(-8)

= 64 - 64

= 0

Therefore, the discriminant is equal to 0.

When the discriminant is equal to 0, it means that the quadratic equation has one real number solution (a double root) because the quadratic formula will give only one root.

Hence,  the discriminant is equal to 0, the equation -2x² = -8x + 8 has one real number solution.

ST = 8 m

SU = 7 m

m∠Q = 75°

m∠S = 59°

m∠R = 46°

m∠U = 46°

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameter are;

ΔPQR is congruent to ΔSTU

In ΔPQR, m∠P = 59°, PR = 8 m, PQ = 7 m

In ΔSTU, m∠T = 75°

By Side-Angle-Side rule of congruence, and given that m∠P ≠ m∠T, we can have;

m∠S ≅ m∠P, by Congruent Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent, CPCTC

ST ≅ PR, SU ≅ PQ, m∠Q ≅ m∠T, m∠U ≅ m∠R

Therefore;

ST = PR = 8 m

ST = 8 m

SU = PQ = 7 m

SU = 7 m

m∠Q = m∠T = 75°

m∠Q = 75°

m∠S = m∠P = 59°

m∠S = 59°

m∠U = m∠R = 180 - (75° + 59°) = 46°

m∠R = 46°

m∠U = 46°.

If a fourth plant produces 150 widgets in 60 days, which statement is true?

A. It makes more than Plant A.
B. It makes less than Plant B.
C. It makes less than Plant A.

Answers

Answer: C. It makes less than Plant A.

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

Explanation:

At the 60 day mark, the following number of widgets are produced

Plant A = 300 widgetsPlant B = 100 widgetsPlant C = 200 widgets

The fourth plant makes 150 widgets, which is between B and C

We see that the fourth plant does not make more than Plant A, so we can rule out choice A.

The fourth plant does not make less than Plant B, which allows us to rule out choice B.

The only thing left is choice C. Sure enough, this statement is true since 150 widgets made at the fourth plant is less than 300 made in Plant A. This is why choice C is the answer.
