Answer:

slope = 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you were given two points, you can use the point-slope formula to find the slope. The general equation looks like this:

y₁ - y₂ = m(x₁ - x₂)

In this formula, "m" represents the slope. To find the slope, plug the values from the two points into the equation. Make sure to put the values from the same point in the variable with the same number.

Point 1: (-1, 8)

Point 2: (-7, 3)

y₁ - y₂ = m(x₁ - x₂) <----- Original formula

8 - y₂ = m(-1 - x₂) <----- Plug in "x" and "y" values from Point 1

8 - 3 = m(-1 - (-7)) <----- Plug in "x" and "y" values from Point 2

5 = m(-1 - (-7)) <----- Simplify left side

5 = m(6) <----- Simplify inside parentheses

5/6 = m <----- Divide both sides by 6

A total of 1 232 students have taken a course in Spanish, 879 have taken a course in French, and 114 have taken a course in Russ

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

$n(S\cap F \cap R)=7$

Step-by-step explanation:

The Universal Set, n(U)=2092

$n(S)=1232\\n(F)=879\\n(R)=114$

$n(S\cap R)=23\\n(S\cap F)=103\\n(F\cap R)=14$

Let the number who take all three subjects, $n(S\cap F \cap R)=x$

Note that in the Venn Diagram, we have subtracted $n(S\cap F \cap R)=x$ from each of the intersection of two sets.

The next step is to determine the number of students who study only each of the courses.

$n(S\:only)=1232-[103-x+x+23-x]=1106+x\\n(F\: only)=879-[103-x+x+14-x]=762+x\\n(R\:only)=114-[23-x+x+14-x]=77+x$

These values are substituted in the second Venn diagram

Adding up all the values

2092=[1106+x]+[103-x]+x+[23-x]+[762+x]+[14-x]+[77+x]

2092=2085+x

x=2092-2085

x=7

The number of students who have taken courses in all three subjects, $n(S\cap F \cap R)=7$

$\tt 4 \frac{1}{2} - 1 \frac{1}{3}$

$= \tt \frac{9}{2} - \frac{4}{3}$

$= \tt \frac{27 - 8}{6}$

$\tt = \frac{19}{6}$

${\orange{\boxed{\red{ \tt = 3 \frac{1}{6} }}}}$

Can someone please help me please

qwelly [4]

Answer:

$1) \dfrac{12+\sqrt{-16}}{4}=\dfrac{12+\sqrt{16i^{2}}}{4}\\\\\\=\dfrac{12+4i}{4}=\dfrac{12}{4}+\dfrac{4i}{4}\\\\\\= 3 + i$

Real part = 3 & imaginary part = 1

2) 4 + 7i - 8 = 4 -8 + 7i

= -4 + 7i

Real part = -4 & imaginary part = 7

$3)\dfrac{\sqrt{9}+\sqrt{-4}}{5}=\dfrac{3+\sqrt{4i^{2}}}{5}\\\\\\=\dfrac{3}{5}+\dfrac{2i}{5}\\\\\\Real \ part = \dfrac{3}{5} \ & \ imaginary \ part = \dfrac{2}{5}$

$4) -2-\sqrt{-25}=-2-\sqrt{25i^{2}}=-2-5i$

Real part = -2 & imaginary part = -5

$5)\dfrac{15-13i}{3}=\dfrac{15}{3}-\dfrac{13i}{3}\\\\\\Real \ part = \dfrac{15}{3} \ & \ imaginary \ part = \dfrac{-13}{3}$

b) 1) 6 + 4i

2) -12+ 5i

3) 5-14i
