The correct result is 3/4

We know that the formula is given by:

\boxed{\large \sf m=\dfrac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }}

  • Being the following data of this question

*27 tests << y

*36 weeks << x

<h3>         </h3>

Then, the resolution will be:

{\large \sf m=\dfrac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }}

{\large \sf m=\dfrac{27-0 }{ 36-0 }}

{\large \sf m=\dfrac{27^{\div 9}  }{ 36^{\div9}  }}

\blue{\boxed{\large \sf m=\dfrac{3 }{ 4  }}}\\

So, the answer is 3/4.

Answer:

The slope of the line that represents the number of tests on the y-axis and the time in weeks on the x-axis is \frac{3}{4}.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Definition of slope of a line:</h3>

The slope of a line describes its steepness. In mathematical terms, for a line passing through two points with known coordinates, the slope is defined as the ratio of the change in the y-coordinates to the change in the x-coordinates.

<h3>Formula for the slope of a line:</h3>

Let 'm' represent the slope of a line passing through two points with coordinates (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2}). So, according to the definition, the slope of the line can be written as follows,

m=\left|\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}}\right|

<h3>Calculation of slope:</h3>

According to the information given in the question, the school conducts 27 tests in 36 weeks.

Now, any point on the x- axis is given by the general form (x,0), where  x  represents any numerical value on the axis. Similarly, any point on the y- axis is given by the general form (0,y), where y represents any numerical value on the axis.

It is given that the time in weeks is represented on the x- axis, so 36 weeks can be represented as coordinates as (36,0). Likewise, the number of tests conducted, i.e., 27 can be represented as coordinates as (0,27).

Now, slope of the line passing through the above mentioned points, using the formula is as follows,

m=\left| \frac{27-0}{0-36} \right|\\m=\left| \frac{27}{-36} \right|\\\\m=\left| \frac{3}{-4} \right|\\\\

Simplifying the mod operator, the slope of the line is found to be \frac{3}{4}.

Hence, the correct option is option A.  \frac{3}{4}.

Answer:

His money earned $36 after 3 months

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the rules of simple interest

- Simple Interest Equation (Principal + Interest)

 A = P(1 + rt)

- Where:

• A = Total amount (principal + interest)  future amount

• P = Principal Amount

• I = Interest Amount

• r = Rate of Interest per year in decimal; r = R/100

• t = Time Period involved  

* To calculate the interest I use the formula

  I = P × r × t

* Lets solve the problem

- The rate is annual

- The interest calculated after 3 months

∴ I = P × R/100 × t/12

∵ P = $3600.00

∵ R = 4%

∵ t = 3 month

∴ I = 3600.00 × 4/100 × 3/12 = $36

* His money earned $36 after 3 months

Since they are equal to 90 degrees. (complimentary angles)

6x-11+7x+10= 90

Combine like terms.

13x-1= 90

Add one to both sides.

13x= 91

x= 7

Plug that into the b.

7(7)+10

49+10

Square root of50 is it rational true or false
morpeh [17]
Rational numbers end
irrational numbers do not
pi is an irrational number
√2 is an irrational number
so
√50=√2 times √25=√2 times 5
irrational times rational =irrational
√2=irrational

answer is false, it is rrational
