Answer: $-\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y -3 = -\frac{1}{2}(x-2)$

Write as slope-intercept form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

$y-3=-\frac{1}{2}x + 1$

$y = -\frac{1}{2}x+4$

Therefore, the slope is $-\frac{1}{2}$ .

If aſc and a +b = C, prove that a|b.

mars1129 [50]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

a + b = c

and a|c

i.e. a divides c.

We need to prove that a|b.

⇒ a = mb for some integer m

Since a|c,

So, mathematically, it is expressed as

c= ka

Now, we put the above value in a + b = c.

So, it becomes,

$a+b=c\\\\a+b=ka\\\\b=ka-a\\\\b=a(k-1)\\\\\implies a|b$

a=mb, here, m = k-1

Hence, proved.

Emerson has an associate degree. Based on the bar chart below, how will his employment opportunities change from 2008-2018?

ANEK [815]

Answer:

19% change

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, Emerson has an associate degree,

His employment is 19% changed in 10 years, i.e. from 2008 to 2018.

Because the bar graph shown the percentage of change in employment from 2008 to 2018.

Also, Employment of associate degree is most affected in 10 years.

And those who have job training and work experience is least affected in these 10 years.

A metallic spherical ball of radius 14 cm is being melted and recast it into spherical balls of radius 2 cm. How many spherical

mojhsa [17]

Volume of sphere = 4/3 x pi x r^3

Volume of large sphere:

4/3 x 3.14 x 14^3 = 11488.21 cubic cm

Volume of smaller sphere:

4/3 x 3.14 x 2^3 = 33.49 cubic cm

Number of small spheres = volume of large sphere/ volume of small sphere

11488.21 / 33.49 = 343.03

Round to 343 small spheres

Write the given second order equation as its equivalent system of first order equations. u′′−5u′−4u=1.5sin(3t),u(1)=1,u′(1)=2.5

lakkis [162]

Answer:

hi your question options is not available but attached to the answer is a complete question with the question options that you seek answer to

Answer: v = 5v + 4u + 1.5sin(3t),

1.5sin(3t)

Step-by-step explanation:

u" - 5u' - 4u = 1.5sin(3t) where u'(1) = 2.5 u(1) = 1

v represents the "velocity function" i.e v = u'(t)

As v = u'(t)

<em>u' = v</em>

since <em>u' = v </em>

v' = u"

v' = 5u' + 4u + 1.5sin(3t) ( given that u" - 5u' - 4u = 1.5sin(3t) )

= 5v + 4u + 1.5sin(3t) ( noting that v = u' )

so v' = 5v + 4u + 1.5sin(3t)

d/dt $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}u&\\v&\\\end{array}\right]$ = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&1&\\4&5&\\\end{array}\right]$ $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}u&\\v&\\\end{array}\right]$ + $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&\\1.5sin(3t)&\\\end{array}\right]$

Given that u(1) = 1 and u'(1) = 2.5

since v = u'

v(1) = 2.5

note: the initial value for the vector valued function is given as

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}u(1)&\\v(1)\\\end{array}\right]$ = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1\\2.5\\\end{array}\right]$

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

37/6

Step-by-step explanation:

-23/6 - 7/3

= -23/6 - 14/6 just make both have the same denominator (2x the 3 to make 6 and do same with numerator)

= 37/6 or 6 1/6
