What is the slope of the function?

Mathematics

Slope is found from taking the (change in y) / (change in x)

Just using the first two points.  The change in y is (8 - 2) which is 6.  The change in x is (-2 - -1) which is -1.  So the slope will be 6 / -1 or just -6.

Which of the following is the equation of a line parallel to the line y = 3x + 2,
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 3x + 2 is in this form with slope m = 3

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line

To find c substitute (10, 1) into the partial equation

1 = 30 + c ⇒ c = 1 - 30 = - 29

y = 3x - 29 ← in slope- intercept form

Subtract y from both sides

0 = 3x - y - 29 ( add 29 to both sides )

29 = 3x - y, thus

3x - y = 29 ← in standard form → B

In a survey, four out of five people surveyed preferred creamy over chunky peanut butter. 120 people are shopping at the grocery
elixir [45]

Answer: Around 96 people would prefer creamy peanut butter.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the survey was found that 4 out of 5 preferred creamy over chunky peanut butter.

Then the relative frequency is:

4/5 = 0.8 prefer creamy peanut butter.

And we can assume that:

1/5 = 0.2 prefer chunky peanut butter.

We also could multiply these numbers by 100% to obtain the percentage forms:

0.8*100% = 80%

0.2*100% = 20%

Now, if there are 120 people in the grocery store, we can expect that the 80% will prefer creamy peanut butter.

Then we can expect that the number of people that prefers creamy peanut butter is:

N = (80%/100%)*120 = 0.8*120 = 96

Around 96 people would prefer creamy peanut butter.

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

<h2>2400GH Cedis </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling \:price = 3000gh Cedis\\Profit \% = 25\%\\Cost\:price =?\\\\CP =\frac{ ( Selling\:price \times 100 )}{ ( 100 + percentage profit)}  \\\\C.P = \frac{3000\times 100 }{100+25}\\\\ C.P = \frac{300000}{125} \\\\Cost\: Price = 2400gh Cedis
