Complete question:
Kyle incorrectly says that the product of - ( - 6 ) # ( - 1 ) is 6 . 11. After a recycling awareness program, the number of tons of recyclable material taken to the landfill is reduced by 13 7/10 tons per month. Represent the total change in the tons of recyclable material taken to the landfill after 7 months resulting from the awareness program a. What is the correct product? 10 month. Represent the total change in the b. What was Kyle's likely error?
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Kyle incorrectly says that the product of - ( - 6 ) ( - 1 ) is 6
-(-6)(-1) = 6 [incorrect]
Correction:
-(-6) (-1) :
- (-6) = 6
6 (-1) = - 6
Given that reduction in materials = 13 7/10 tons per month
Monthly reduction = 13 7/10 = 137/10 tons
After 7 months : (7 * 137/10) = 959/10 tons = 95.9 tons
Change in amount of material taken to the land fill:
Initial amount - amount after 7 months
If initial amount = x
Change in amonnt = (x - 95.9) tons
F=-50 as multiplying it by -6.2 would give you a positive 310
D 32 miles to the gallon
976 divided by 30.5 equals 32
To find the slope of the line:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(14-5)/(4-1)=(9)/(3)=3
Only one of your 4 possible answers has 3 as a slope. However, plugging in each point into the y=mx+b equation, the y-intercept consistently comes out as 2..
y=mx+b
14=3(4)+b b=2
5=3(1)+b b=2
y=3x+2
If there is a consistent, positive slope (from your question, this does not seem to have a quadratic as an option), 3x+5 is not even a viable solution because x=1 when the y-value is 5 (and thus no other x value {0} could have a y-value of 5). It seems as though you have a typo on your hands. Hopefully this helps?
