Answer 1
Answer:

A. y = (-6/5)x +10

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line has a negative slope (downward to the right). The only equation offered with a negative slope is the one of selection A.

_____

Complete working

A parallel line will have the same slope. If there are less-obvious choices to select from, you need to know the slope of the given line. That is computed from ...

... slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

The coordinates of two points are given, so we can find the slope as ...

... slope = (-4-2)/(-1-(-6)) = -6/5

There are a number of ways to write the equation of a line, but in slope-intercept form, the slope is the coefficient of x. You will be looking for a choice that has an x-coefficient of -6/5.

​ 38⋅45 ​

Express your answer in simplest form.

Answers

the answer to 38 • 45 is 1,710, though i do not know that you mean by “expressing your answer in simplest form.

The simplest form of 38 multiplied by 45 equals  to 1710.

To multiply 38 and 45, we'll use the long multiplication method:

  38

x 45

------

 190   (38 * 5)

+1520  (38 * 40, shift one position to the left)

------

1710

So, 38 multiplied by 45 equals 1710.

Another method is to break down 38 into its factors to simplify the multiplication:

38 = 2 * 19

Now, we can rewrite 38 * 45 as (2 * 19) * 45:

(2 * 19) * 45 = (2 * 45) * 19

             = 90 * 19

Now, we can multiply 90 by 19:

90

x 19

-----

180  (90 * 9, shift one position to the left)

+ 0   (90 * 1, with a zero placeholder)

-----

1710

Again, we get the result as 1710.

So, whether we use long multiplication directly or break down the numbers into factors, the result remains the same: 38 * 45 = 1710.

at a car and truck dealership, the probability that a vehicle is white is 0.25. the probability that it is a car is 0.36. the probability that it is a white car is 0.08. what is the probability that a vehicle is white, given that the vehicle is a car?

Answers

Answer:

Probability that a vehicle is white, given that the vehicle is a car :

0.2222

Step-by-step explanation:

A: vehicle is white

probability that a vehicle is white =P(A)= 0.25

B:vehicle is a car

probability that it is a car =P(B)= 0.36

A∩B:vehicle is a white car

P(A∩B)=probability that it is a white car = 0.08

A/B:vehicle is white,given that vehicle is a car

to find P(A/B)

baye's theorem says that

P(A∩B)=P(A/B)×P(B)

⇒   0.08=P(A/B)×0.36

⇒  P(A/B)=0.2222

Hence, probability that a vehicle is white, given that the vehicle is a car is :

0.2222

Which point on the graph is a direct variation equation in which k=12.4

(4,49.6)
(49.6,4)
(4,3.1)
3.1,4)

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer would be A) (4, 49.6)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the equation, we first have to start with the base form of direct variation.

y = kx

Now we input the k value.

y = 12.4x

Now that we have this, we can try the ordered pairs and look for which satisfies the equation.

y = 12.4x

49.4 = 12.4(4)

49.4 = 49.4

Since this is the true statement, this is the ordered pair that works.

Answer:

bruce banner had a taxable income last year of $43,467. his state's income tax rate is 3.9% and his city income tax is 1.8%. what total state and city income taxes did bruce pay last year?

Answers

Answer:

Total tax paid by Bruce = $2477.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Bruce banner taxable income last year = $43,467

State's income tax rate = 3.9%

State's income tax = 43467*3.9% = 43467*0.039 = $1695.21

City income tax rate is = 1.8

City income tax = 43467*1.8% = 43467*0.018 =$782.41


Total tax = $1695.21 + $782.41

= $2477.62

The Art Club collected $15 from each of its 17 members for dues. It then had $300 in its account. Assume the relationship is linear. Find and interpret the rate of change and the initial value.

Answers

The "rate of change" is presumed to refer to the rate at which the balance in the bank account changes as dues are collected from Art Club members. It increases by $15 for each new collection, so we can say ...

... the rate of change is $15 per member.

We further presume that the problem intends the "initial value" to refer to the fact that the 17 × $15 = $255 does not match the full amount of the current Art Club account balance ($300). So, there must have been some balance in the account before collection started. We can interpret that $45 "initial value" as ...

... the account balance before dues collection started is the initial value.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 39

|-4| is a solution of x ≤ 4

|-4| ⇒ This mean the absolute value of 4. The sign s are neglected.

So, |-4| is not a  solution of x ≤ 4.

Question 43

The point (5, -1) is a solution of the equation: y = 2x − 11.

To prove this we are to substitute the point (5, -1) in the equation y = 2x − 11.

y = -1 and x = 5

y = 2x − 11   ⇒   -1 = 2(5) -11

(C) Consistent independent

(D) (1, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

(A) Road 1

(a) Slope

The point-slope formula for a straight line is

y₂ - y₁ = m(x₂ - x₁)     Insert the points  

 3 - 7 = m(0 - 2)

     -4 = m(-2)           Divide each side by -2

     m = -4/(-2)          Divide numerator and denominator by-2,

      m = 2

(b) y-intercept

y₂ - y₁ = m(x₂ - x₁)

y₂ - 7 = 2(x₂ -2)

y - 7 = 2(x -2)

(B) Road 2

(a) Slope

y = mx + b

Choose point (3,3)

m = (3 - 5)/(3 - 1)

m = -2/2

m = -1

(b) y-intercept

y = mx +b

Choose point (3,3).

3 = -3 + b      Add 3 to each side

b = 6

What is 9.36•10~4 in standard form

Answers

With exponents of 10, the exponent really just tells you how many zeroes there are behind the 1. So, for example, 10^4=10000 (4 zeroes behind 1). When multiplying decimals by exponents of 10, you move the decimal to the right, and the amount of places is the exponent number. For example, if I multiply 5.34 by 10^2, I move the decimal over to the right 2 times and get 534.

So, if you just multiply these you get 9.36*10000, which is 93600.

The number 9.36×10-4 in standard form is 0.000936. You convert from scientific notation to standard form by moving the decimal point to the left by the number equivalent to the exponent when the exponent is negative.

Explanation:

When asked what is 9.36×10-4 in standard form, we are being asked to convert a number from scientific notation to its regular number format. Scientific notation is a method of writing numbers that are too big or too small to be conveniently written in decimal form. To convert this to standard form, we move the decimal point to the left if the exponent is negative (or to the right if the exponent is positive) as many times as the value of the exponent.

In this case, we have a negative exponent (-4), so we move the decimal four places to the left:

9.36 -> 0.936 -> 0.0936 -> 0.00936 -> 0.000936

Therefore, 9.36×10-4 in standard form is 0.000936.

Directed line segment has endpoints P(– 8, – 4) and Q(4, 12). Determine the point that partitions the directed line segment in a ratio of 3:1.

Answers

Answer:

Point (1,8)  

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use segment formula to find the coordinates of point that will partition our line segment PQ in a ratio 3:1.

When a point divides any segment internally in the ratio m:n, the formula is:

[tex][x=\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},y= \frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}][/tex]

Let us substitute coordinates of point P and Q as:

[tex]x_1=-8[/tex],

[tex]y_1=-4[/tex]

[tex]x_2=4[/tex]

[tex]y_2=12[/tex]

[tex]m=3[/tex]

[tex]n=1[/tex]

[tex][x=\frac{(3*4)+(1*-8)}{3+1},y=\frac{(3*12)+(1*-4)}{3+1}][/tex]

[tex][x=\frac{4}{4},y=\frac{32}{4}][/tex]

A. 3x − y = 4
B. 3x + y = 4
C. −3x − y = 4
D. −3x + y = 4

Answers

Answer:

B. 3x +y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

It is perhaps easiest to simply try the equations to see which one works.

For x=0, there are two different kinds of answers:

... A and C: -y = 4

... B and D: y = 4

Since we know y=4 when x=0 (from the point (0, 4)), we can eliminate choices A and C.

___

Using the point (1, 1), you can try choices B and D to see which works:

... B: 3·1 +1 = 4 . . . . true (put 1 where x and y are in the equation)

... D: -3·1 +1 = -2 = 4 . . . . false

The appropriate choice is the equation of B: 3x +y = 4.

_____

Derive the equation from the given points

There are several ways you can derive the equation. Since you have the y-intercept (the point with x=0), you can use the slope-intercept form to start.

The slope (m) is ...

... m = (change in y)/(change in x) = (4 -1)/(0 -1)

... m = -3

We know the y-intercept (b) is 4, so the slope-intercept form of the equation is ...

... y = mx +b

... y = -3x +4

Adding 3x puts this in standard form:

... 3x +y = 4

Final answer:

The equation of the line passing through points (1,1) and (0,4) is y = -3x + 4 or in standard form -3x + y = 4.

Explanation:

In the subject of mathematics, when it comes to identifying equations of the line in a graph, we consider the points it passes through. In this case, the line passes through the points (1, 1) and (0, 4). The equation of a line can be found using the formula: y - y1 = m(x - x1), where (x1, y1) is a point on the line and m is the slope. The slope m between two points can be found using the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Let's substitute the given points into the slope formula and find the slope: m = (4 - 1) / (0 - 1) = -3.  Now, using the slope and one of the points (let's use (0,4)), we substitute into the line formula: y - 4 = -3(x - 0). This simplifies to y = -3x + 4, which aligns with answer D: −3x + y = 4.

Is (5,1) a solution of the system?

Answers

Answer:

{x = 1/7 ,y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{-5 y = -5 | (equation 1)

{7 x + 6 y = 7 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:

{7 x + 6 y = 7 | (equation 1)

{0 x - 5 y = -5 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 2 by -5:

{7 x + 6 y = 7 | (equation 1)

{0 x+y = 1 | (equation 2)

Subtract 6 × (equation 2) from equation 1:

{7 x+0 y = 1 | (equation 1)

{0 x+y = 1 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 7:

{x+0 y = 1/7 | (equation 1)

{0 x+y = 1 | (equation 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Why is partitioning a directed line segment into a ratio of 1:3 not the same as finding 1/3 the length of the directed line segment?

The ratio given is part to whole, but fractions compare part to part.
The ratio given is part to part. The total number of parts in the whole is 3 – 1 = 2.
The ratio given is part to part. The total number of parts in the whole is 1 + 3 = 4.
The ratio given is part to whole, but the associated fraction is 1/3.

Answers

Answer:

The ratio given is part to part. The total number of parts in the whole is 1 + 3 = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

I like to call the numbers in the ratio 1 : 3 "ratio units".

That is, the short length is 1 ratio unit long, and the longer length is 3 ratio units long. The total (whole) length is 1+3 = 4 ratio units long. Then the short length (1 ratio unit) is 1/4 of the whole length (4 ratio units).

Coment on the answer wording

I think you need to be careful with terminology. The word "part" has a different meaning in the first answer sentence "... part to part" than it does in the second answer sentence "... parts in the whole ...".

In the first sentence, it refers to "a piece of the line, no matter its length." In the second sentence, it refers to "that length of the line represented by 1 in the ratio."
