Find an equation for the line that passes through the points (-6, -6) and (4,-2)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Viefleur [7K]1 year ago

Answer:

y = 2/5 x - 18/5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = [-2 - (-6)]/[4 - (-6)] = 4/10 = 2/5

y = 2/5 x + b

-6 = (2/5)(-6) + b

-30 = -12 + 5b

5b = -18

b = -18/5

y = 2/5 x - 18/5

The box-and-whisker plot below shows the numbers of text messages received in one day by students in the seventh and eighth grad
Leya [2.2K]
<h3><u>Answer with explanation:</u></h3>

From the box and whisker plot of seventh grade we have:

The minimum value =6

First quartile or lower quartile i.e. Q_1 = 14

Median or second quartile i.e. Q_2 = 18

Third quartile or upper quartile i.e. Q_3 =22

and maximum value = 26

From the box and whisker plot of eighth grade we have:

The minimum value =22

First quartile or lower quartile i.e. Q_1 = 26

Median or second quartile i.e. Q_2 = 30

Third quartile or upper quartile i.e. Q_3 = 34

and maximum value = 38

a)

The overlap of the two sets of data is as follows.

  • The upper quartile or third quartile of seventh grade is same as the minimum value of the data of eighth grade.
  • And the maximum value of seventh grade is same as the lower quartile of eighth grade.

b)

IQR is calculated as the difference of the Upper quartile and the lower quartile

i.e. Q_3-Q_1

so, IQR of seventh grade is:

22-14=8

IQR of seventh grade=8

IQR of eighth grade is:

34-26=8

Hence, IQR of eighth grade=8

c)

The difference of the median of the two data sets is:

30-18=12

Hence, the difference of median is: 12

d)

As the IQR of both the sets is same i.e. 8.

Hence, the number that must be multiplied by IQR so that it is equal to the difference between the medians of the two sets is:

8\times n=12\\\\n=\dfrac{12}{8}\\\\n=\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\n=1.5

Hence, the number is : 1.5

A salesperson is paid an 8.25% commission on sales when the invoice is
son4ous [18]

Answer:

<em>The salesperson's commission for this month is $3,803</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

Let's call x to the sales volume, not including commission.

The salesperson is paid an 8.25% commission on sales, thus the total invoice is x + 8.25%x = x + 0.0825x = 1.0825x

We are given this total invoice, thus:

1.0825x = $49,900

Dividing by 1.0825:

x = $46,097

The salesperson's commission is

0.0825*$46,097=$3,803

The salesperson's commission for this month is $3,803

CAN SOMEONE PLS TELL ME DOMAIN AND RANGE
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answers:

  • Domain is (-4, 3]
  • Range is (-5, 5]

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

Explanation:

The domain is the set of allowed x input values, aka the set of all allowed x coordinates of the points. We see that -4 < x \le 3. It might help to draw vertical lines through the endpoints until you reach the x axis. Note the open hole at x = -4 to indicate we do not include this as part of the domain (hence the lack of "or equal to" for the first inequality sign).

The interval -4 < x \le 3 then can be condensed into the shorthand form (-4, 3] which is the domain in interval notation.

It says: x is between -4 and 3. It can't equal -4 but it can equal 3.

So the use of parenthesis versus square brackets tells the reader which endpoint is included or not.

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

The range describes all possible y outputs. We see that y = 5 is the largest it gets and y = -5 is the lower bound. It might help to draw horizontal lines through the endpoints until you reach the y axis. The open hole means -5 is not part of the range.

The range as a compound inequality is -5 < y \le 5. This condenses into the shorthand of (-5, 5] which is the range in interval notation.

Verbally, the range is the set of y values such that y is between -5 and 5. It can't equal -5 but it can equal 5.

May you tell me which one is the Correct Answer, Thank you.

No the correct answer is c. If you use the formula
Y2- Y1
X2-X1
You could use this to find the slope. And then the y-intercept if any.
