The table represents a linear function. Two Columns Five Rows Column X (-2,-1,0,1,2) and Column Y (8,2,-4,-10,-16) What is the slope of the function? a. -6 b. -4 c. 4 d. 6

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: A

Slope = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the column of the table are:

Column X (-2,-1,0,1,2) and

Column Y (8,2,-4,-10,-16) 

Since the table represent a linear function, the equation of the function will obey the general linear equation

Y = MX + C

Where M = slope

M = ( Y2 - Y1 ) / ( X2 - X1 )

Let Y1 = 8, Y2 = 2 and X1 = -2 and X2 = -1

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

M = ( 2 - 8 )/( -1 - - 2 )

M = ( 2 - 8 ) / ( -1 + 2 )

M = -6/1

M = -6

Therefore, the slope of the function is -6

The length of a rectangle is 3 m greater than the width. The perimeter is 38 m. What
are the dimensions of the rectangle?​

Answers

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us take the breadth as 'x'

breadth = x

length = 3 + x

perimeter = 38m

perimeter of a rectangle = 2 ( l + b )

= 2( x + x + 3 ) = 38

4x + 6 = 38

4x = 38-6

x = 32/4

x = 8

breadth = 8

length = 11

In a class of students, the following data table summarizes how many students have a

sister?
Has a brother | Does not have a brother
Has a sister

2
Does not have a sister
8
13​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Probability = \frac{6}{29}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

------------------------------Has a brother | Does not have a brother

Has a sister --------------------------- 6 ----------------- 8

Does not have a sister  -----------2 ------------------ 13

Required

Probability of having a sister and a brother

First, the total number of students has to be calculated;

Total = 6 + 2+ 8 + 13

Total = 29

Number of students that have a sister and a brother is represented with data in row 1 and column 1 i.e. 6

At this point, the probability can then be calculated;

Probability = Number of students that have a sister and a brother divided by Total number of students

[tex]Probability = \frac{6}{29}[/tex]

The sales tax for an item was $19.20 and it costs $480 before tax. Find the sales tax rate. Write your answer as a percentage

Answers

Answer:

sales tax rate = 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem formula to express one term in percentage is used

To express x as percentage of y is given by (x/y*100) %

______________________________________________

Cost of item = $480

sales tax = $19.20

we have to find sales tax rate.

sales tax rate is percentage of cost price which will levied as tax .

thus, we have to find sales tax as percentage of cost price.

using the percentage cost as given above

sales tax as percentage = sales tax/ cost of item *100

sales tax as percentage = 19.20/480 *100 = 4%

Thus, sales tax rate is 4%.

It means that if cost price of item is $100 then $4 will be the sales tax for the item.

Answer:

y=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

The line shown is a horizontal line via the y-axis and has the equation y=4. A parallel line to it is a line that doesn't pass it. It may even have the form y=a wherein a is the y-coordinate of its points. The point (-4,-6) is on the line so y=-6 is the line.

please mark me brainliest!

y=-6 is the  equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (-4,-6 )

The slope of line passing through two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is

m=y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

The slope of the line passing through points ( -8, 4) and (8, 4)

m=4-4/8+8

=0

Slope is zero.

The slope of the parallel line will be also zero.

Now equation of line passing through (-4, -6) which is parallel.

Let us find y intercept

-6=-4(0)+b

-6=b

So the equation will be y=-6.

(NEED HELP ASAP)Determine whether the situation calls for a survey, an observational study, or an experiment. You want to find new car buyers' opinions on the most important options. Question 7 options: survey observational study experiment

Answers

Answer: The answer is "experiment."

Step-by-step explanation:

This procedure is being used in order to validate a hypothesis, particularly in a research study. In the situation above, you have to validate whether a new reading program can increase reading comprehension or not.

The experiment consists of independent, dependent, and controlled variables. The independent variables are the ones being changed by the researcher, while the dependent variables tell whether the changes in the independent variable is significant. The controlled variables are the ones that are constant.

The dependent variable above is reading comprehension, while the new reading program is the independent variable. Examples of controlled variables are the ages of the participants. The age directly affects the reading comprehension, thus it has to be considered.

This year at the state fair they held two hot dog eating contests. The first contest had 19 contestants and the winner would be the person that ate the most regular-sized hot dogs in 15 minutes. The second contest had 23 contestants and the winner would be the person that ate the most jumbo-sized hot dogs in 15 minutes. The data from both contests are shown in the box-and-whisker plots above. Using the box-and-whisker plots, the results for the____-sized hot dog contest has greater variability. The difference in the medians of the two contests is approximately _____times the interquartile range.

Answers

Answer:

*regular-sized hot dog contest has greater variability

*The difference in the medians of the two contests is approximately 2 times the interquartile range.

Step-by-step explanation:

Variability of the data from both contests can be compared using the range or interquartile range of each set of data from both contests.

The greater the value of the range or interquartile range, the greater the variability.

Range for regular-sized hot dog contest = 32 - 17 = 15

Range for Jumbo-sized hot dog contest = 22 - 8 = 14

Interquartile range for regular-sized hot dog contest = 27 - 22 = 5

Interquartile range for jumbo-sized hot dog contest = 16 - 11 = 5

Median for regular-sized hot dog contest = 23

Median for jumbo-sized hot dog contest = 14

The difference in the median of both contests = 23 - 14 = 9, which is approximately 2 times the interquartile range (5)

Thus, results for the regular-sized hot dog contest has greater variability, be side its range is 5, which is greater than that for jumbo-sized contest.

The difference in the medians of the two contests is approximately 2 times the interquartile range.

The interquartile range of both contests is 5. The median difference between both contests is 9, it is approximately 2 times 5. (i.e. 9/5 = 1.8 ≈ 2).

please answer ASAP please i need HELP ASAP thank you

Answers

Answer:

No, the AA similarity postulate cannot be used because a reflection over line f will establish that ∠ABC and ∠DEC are not congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question

m∠ABC = 45°

m∠ECD = 45°

Based on the above information, the ΔBAC ~ ΔEDC could be determined by seeing the given options

As we can see that from the last option the AA could not be postulated as it creates a reflection over the line plus the ∠ABC and ∠DEC is not congruent

Therefore the last option is correct

No, the AA similarity postulate cannot be used because a reflection over line f will establish that ∠ABC and ∠DEC are not congruent. Therefore the option D is correct.

What is the congruent triangle?

Two triangles are said to be congruent if the length of the sides is equal, a measure of the angles are equal and they can be superimposed.

Data given in the question

m∠ABC = 45°

m∠ECD = 45°

Based on the above information, the ΔBAC ~ ΔEDC could be determined by seeing the given options one by one.

As we can conclude that from the last option the AA could not be postulated as it creates a reflection over the line plus the ∠ABC and ∠DEC is not congruent.

No, the AA similarity postulate cannot be used because a reflection over line f will establish that ∠ABC and ∠DEC are not congruent.

Therefore the option D is correct.
