To get slope (m), use the equation
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Then plug in the points
m = (15 + 1)/(3 + 1)
m = (16)/(4)
m = 4

answer is A. 4

The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 9. When the digits are reversed, the new number is 9 more than the original numbe
Paul [167]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  d.  45

Step-by-step explanation:

You can check the offered answers. You will find that the difference from reversing the digits will only be 9 if the digits differ by 9/9 = 1.

The original number is 45.

__

<em>Check</em>

  45 + 9 = 54 . . . with the digits reversed

If $-2 &lt; x \le 3,$ then find all possible values of $5x + 1.$ Give your answer in interval notation.
kotegsom [21]

Answer: (-9, 16]

This is the interval from -9 to 16. Exclude -9 but include 16.

=====================================================

Work Shown:

The idea is to multiply all sides by 5, then add 1 to all sides

-2 < x \le 3

5(-2) < 5x \le 5(3)

-10 < 5x \le 15

-10+1 < 5x+1 \le 15+1

-9 < 5x+1 \le 16

This converts to the interval notation  (-9, 16]

note: a curved parenthesis means "do not include this value in the solution set"; while a square bracket has us include the value. So we exclude -9 and include 16.

Solve for x.
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

C.  3, -7

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 +4x-21 =0

Factor

What 2 numbers multiply to -21 and add to 4

7*-3 = -21

7-3 = 4

(x+7) (x-3) =0

Using the zero product property

x+7 =0       x-3=0

x+7-7=0-7     x-3+3=0+3

x = -7            x=3

Solve for x; y=mx+b I can find x by_______________ on both sides of the equation PLZ Show your Work Thank You
amid [387]

Answer:

"subtracting b, then dividing by m"

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for a particular variable, look a the operations that are being performed on that variable. Then "undo" those operations in reverse order.

Here, the operations done to x are ...

• multiply by m

• add b to the product

Using the above recipe, first we "undo" the additon of b. We accomplish that by subtracting b from both sides of the equation. This gives ...

y - b = mx + b - b

y - b = mx . . . . . . . . . simplify

Next, we "undo" the multiplicatin by m. We accomplish that by dividing both sides of the equation by m.

(y -b)/m = mx/m

(y -b)/m = x . . . . . . . . simplify

This is your solution for x:

x = (y - b)/m

We found it by subtracting b, then dividing by m on both sides of the equation.
