What is the slope of line a? <br><br>

emmainna [20.7K]

<h3>Answer: -1/4 (choice C)</h3>

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

Explanation:

Start at the point (0,1). This is the y intercept, which is where the graph crosses the y axis.

Then move down 1 and over to the right 4 spaces. We arrive at (4,0) which is the x intercept.

The process of "down 1, over to the right 4" can be thought of like this

rise/run = -1/4

rise = -1

run = 4

A rise of -1 indicates we go down 1 unit

The run of 4 means we move to the right 4 units

So that's why slope = rise/run = -1/4

-------------------------------------------------------

Here's another approach using the slope formula:

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (0-1)/(4-0)

m = -1/4

I used the two points (0,1) and (4,0) as (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) respectively. This formula basically says "subtract the y coordinates, subtract the x coordinates in the same order, then divide the differences y over x".

-------------------------------------------------------

Side note: The line moving downhill, as we read from left to right, indicates a negative slope.

One day in the playground,the ratio of the number of boy to the number of girl is 3:5 later 6girls come, 9boy leave, the ratio o

choli [55]

Answer:

The number of boys are 18 and the number of girls are 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of number of girls to the boys = 3 : 5

Let the number of girls is g and boys is b initially.

b : g = 3 : 5

5 b = 3 g ..... (1)

Now, girls are 6 + g and boys are b - 9

So, the ratio is

(b - 9) : (6 + g) = 1 : 4

4 b - 36 = 6 + g

4 b - g = 42 .... (2)

From ( 1 ) and ( 2 )

$4 b - \frac {5 b}{3}= 42\\\\\frac{7 b }{3} = 42\\\\b = 18$

And , g = 5 x 18/3 = 30

So, the number of boys are 18 and the number of girls are 30.

Find the value of x. 6 8 4 x

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

3

Explanation:

4 is half of 8 on the right side, so that means X has to be half of 6, so it’s 3. Also, it couldn’t be 2 because it is too big, and it can’t be 4 because it isn’t the same length as the other 4, so it’s 3

Solve by taking the square root of both sides 3(x-1)^2-162=0

Natali5045456 [20]

We know that: <span>3(x-1)^2-162=0
or (x-1)</span>²= 162:3
and (x-1)²= 54
we <span>take the square root of both sides
* x-1=</span>√54= 3√6 or x=1+3√6
* x-1= -<span>√54= -3√6 or x=1-3√6
This equation has 2 solutions</span>
