Answer: Try to figure it out first. If you can't, then you haven't learned the material and you won't be able to understand subsequent lessons.


Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1 checks that you know several things:


● Point (5,8) means x=5 and y=8.


● Which number is the y intercept in equation y = m x + b.

m is NOT the y intercept.

b IS the y intercept.

Guess which is the slope...


● The y intercept is value of y when x is zero. But m times zero is zero, no matter what m is, so m can't be the y intercept. On the other hand, m x + b evaluates to b when x is zero.


● The meaning of an inequality and how it is graphed:

A solid line means the line is included in the graph (≤ or ≥).

A dotted line means the line is not included (< or >).

The shaded area indicates points in that area are in the solution set of the inequality.


● To see if point (A,B) is in the solution set, substitute A for x and B for y, and see if the result is true.


Say (A,B) = (5,6), and the statement is y < 2x + 3. You substitute A (5) for x and evaluate the right hand side to a number (13), and substitute B (6) for y on the left hand side to give a statement about two numbers: 6 < 13. If the statement is true, then (A,B) is in the solution set.


Then the region containing (A,B) will be shaded (inequality), or a solid line (equation).


Question 2 tries to see if you realize you can't draw a line between two points without first plotting both points.


Question 3 checks to see if you know how to tell if an equation matches a line on graph paper. You can look at the line, find the y intercept (b) and the slope (m), and look for an equation y = m x + b.

For instance, the red line crosses the y axis at (0,4), x = 0 (always true for a y intercept), and y = 4. So the equation for the red line must be

y = m x + 4. If you substitute (0,4), you get 4 = m × 0 + 4 = 4, a true statement.

You can figure the slope of the red line as m = rise/run. The answer is m=2, so the equation is y = 2x+4.

Or you can just check all of the choices. Takes longer but you don't have to know how to find slope.


But after doing this (or even without doing it), you check to see if a few points from the line make the equation true. The red line includes (-4,-4). So check -4 = 2(-4) + 4. Since -8+4 is -4, the result is true. Also check (0,4) and (-2,0) because they are easy to do. 4 = 2(0)+4, true, and 0 = 2(-2) + 4, true. y = 2x + 4 is the equation of the red line.


If the check fails, then either you don't know how to read the slope and y intercept, or else you don't know how to substitute x and y into the equation.


Another way to eliminate incorrect choices quickly is to substitute (-3,-2), x = -3, y = -2, into each pair. If either equation evaluates to false, eliminate that choice. But that might not eliminate all but one choice, so you need to test all of them.


The last question checks to see if you can figure out which axis is x and which is y, and if you know (-3,-2) means x=-3, y=-2, and not x=-2, y=-3.

A tarp is used to keep the infield of a baseball field from getting wet. The infield is a square. The corners of the square tarp
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

<h2>a. 2,025 ft</h2><h2>b. 8,100 is a perfect square. </h2>

Step-by-step & explanation:

<em>It is a perfect square because if it wasn't, it wouldn't be equally a whole number when divided by 4 or 2,025 exactly on ALL 4 sides and when finding the root of 8,100 it's a perfect 90.  As you should already know a perfect square has a given 90 degree angle.</em>

Tarp = 8,100 sq ft.

- anchored corners at the base.

- Square infield.

Well if there's 4 bases, divide 8,100 by 4.

8,100 / 4 = 2,025

One base to another base is 2,025 ft.

Twin​ brothers, Billy and​ Bobby, can mow their​ grandparent's lawn together in 53 minutes. Billy could mow the lawn by himself
podryga [215]
5353 minutes = 89.22 hours
Maybe the figures should be 53 and 20??

Let's let Billy = A
The formula to use for work problems is
Time = (A*B) / (A+B)

53 = ( (A +20)* A) / (A +20 + A) )
53 = ( A^2 + 20A ) / (2A + 20)
A^2 + 20A -106A -1060
A^2 -86A -1060
A = 96.935

Ashley has 20 pieces of candy in a bag: 2 mint sticks, 4 jelly treats, and 14 fruit tart chews. If she eats one piece every 8 mi
AleksAgata [21]
The probability that her first treat is jelly is 4/20. Since she eats the candy and does not replace it, the probability the second treat is jelly would be 3/19 (1 less jelly and 1 less total candies). You would then multiply (4/20) by (3/19). That is your answer.

The width of a rectangle is (5x + 2) inches and the length is (6x − 7) inches. Find the area of the rectangle.
Degger [83]

Answer:

<h2><u><em>30x² − 23x − 14</em></u></h2>

Explanation:

  • Area = Length · Width

Length: (6x - 7)

Width: (5x + 2)

  • Create An Equation

(6x - 7) (5x + 2)

= (6x + −7)(5x + 2)

(6x)(5x) + (6x)(2) + (−7)(5x) + (−7)(2)

= 30x² + 12x − 35x − 14

  • 30x² − 23x − 14
