Answer:

slope = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The general structure of an equation in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept. Since the given equation is not in the exact slope-intercept form, we need to rearrange it to identify the slope.

y + 2x = 5 <----- Given equation

y = -2x + 5 <----- Subtract 2x from both sides

Now, we can see that in the "m" position, there is a value of -2. This makes the slope = -2.

Rus_ich [418]

(f+g)(x)=0
f (x) + g (x)=0

now,
substitute their values

x^2 -4x + x -18 = 0
x^2 -3x -18 =0
x^2 - 6x + 3x - 18 =0
x (x-6) + 3 (x-6) = 0
(x-6)(x+3) = 0

we have to find it's zeroes (or roots) now:

x-6 =0
x = 6

x +3 =0
x = -3

A local gym instructor has a course load that allows her to teach eight classes. At an interest meeting, 8 people wanted high-‐

Answer:

The final curse load of the local gym instructor is this:

High-‐impact aerobics = 1

Low-‐impact aerobics = 4

Jazzercise = 1

Step exercise = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's apportion the class load using the Hamilton method

Number of classes the local gym instructor can teach = 8

Total number of students that want to take a class = 114 (8 people wanted high-‐impact aerobics, 64 wanted low-‐impact aerobics, 11 wanted jazzercise, and 31 wanted step exercise)

Standard divisor = 114/8 = 14.25

Now, we can apportion the students in in Standard quotas, this way:

High-‐impact aerobics = 8/14.25 = 0.5614

Low-‐impact aerobics = 64/14.25 = 4.49

Jazzercise = 11/14.25 = 0.7719

Step exercise = 31/14.25 = 2.1754

Now, we find the Minimum quota, just considering the whole number and don't taking into account the decimals, this way:

High-‐impact aerobics = 0

Low-‐impact aerobics = 4

Jazzercise = 0

Step exercise = 2

As we can see we have 6 classes and there are 2 still pending. Those 2 goes to the classes with the highest decimal portion, in this case, Jazzercise .7719 and High-‐impact aerobics with .5614.

The final course load is this:

High-‐impact aerobics = 1

Low-‐impact aerobics = 4

Jazzercise = 1

Step exercise = 2
