line pass through the line (-3, -7.5)tahila determined that the equation of line n is y=0.5x explain the error tahila made while

The equation of the line will be (assuming the y-intercept equal to zero):

y = 2.5*x

<h3>What is Tahila's mistake?</h3>

We know that we have a linear equation of the form:

y = a*x + b

Such that we know that the line passes through (-3, -7.5), notice that the proposed equation is:

y = 0.5*x

If you evaluate that in -3, you get:

y = 0.5*-3 = -1.5

So this line does not pass through (-3, -7.5).

If we assume that b = 0 in the linear equation, then we can find the value of a as:

-7.5  =  a*-3

a = 7.5/3 = 2.5

Then the linear equation is:

y = 2.5*x

Factor out the coefficient of the variable term.
aivan3 [116]

Given:

The expression is

\dfrac{1}{2}n-\dfrac{1}{2}

To find:

The factored form of given expression after factor out the coefficient of the variable term.

Solution:

We have,

\dfrac{1}{2}n-\dfrac{1}{2}

Here, the coefficient of variable n is \dfrac{1}{2}.

It can be written as

=\dfrac{1}{2}\times n-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1

Taking out \dfrac{1}{2} as common factor, we get

=\dfrac{1}{2}(n-1)

Therefore, the factored from of given expression is \dfrac{1}{2}(n-1).

The dimensions of a rectangular piece of paper are 8.5 inches and 11 inches. Veronica folded the piece of paper along its diagon
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

D) 13.9 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonal of a rectangle is longer than the longest side. It will never be more than 42% of the shortest side longer than the longest side.

Here, the longest side is 11 inches. 42% of the shortest side is about 3.6 inches, so the diagonal length will be between 11 and 14.6 inches. Only one answer choice is in that range: 13.9 in.

Of course, the length of the diagonal can be figured to any desired accuracy using the Pythagorean theorem.

... √(8.5² +11²) = √193.25 ≈ 13.9014 . . . . inches

_____

<em>Comment on the solution</em>

For this multiple-choice problem, it is sufficient to estimate the length of the diagonal. The estimate we suggested was to add 0.42 times the short side to the long side.

An even closer estimate can be had by multiplying that value (.42×short side) by the ratio of the short to long sides prior to adding it to the long side. This will get you within 1.5% of the correct value without the need for a square root.

shenika is inviting 7 friends to a party. if each friend will get 5 cookies and each box has 12 cookies. how many boxes does she
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Shenika invites 7 friends and each one gets 5 cookies.

= 7*5

= 35

Based on above answer, Shenika will need a total of 35 cookies for all.

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

Each box has 12 cookies.

Total cookies = 35

Let the number of boxes be x.

12*x = 35

x = 35/12

x = 2.9

This means she would need <em><u>3 boxes</u></em>.
