Answer:

Slope of the line segment PQ is 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with a line connecting two points P and Q.

The coordinates of P are (4,4) and the coordinates of Q are (-2,1).

Slope of line joining two points $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{2},y_{2})$

is given by the formula $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

Hence the slope of the line PQ is $\frac{1-4}{-2-4}=\frac{-3}{-6}= \frac{1}{2}$

Therefore correct option is 'C' that is 1/2.

A worker at a mill is loading 10-lb bags of flour into boxes to deliver to a local warehouse. Each box holds 4 bags of flour. If

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer: 100 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since 1 ton = 2,000 lbs

We have to divide 10lbs by 2000 to convert the lbs in tons.

1t/2000lb = xt / 10lb

10 /2000=0.005

0.005 ton = 10 lbs (1 bag)

Each box has 4 bags

0.005 ton x 4 = 0.02 ton

So each box weights 0.02 ton

Since we need 2 tons.

Using proportions:

0.02t/1 box= 2 t / x boxes

x = 2 / (0.02/1)

x = 100 boxes

Which polynomial function has a leading coefficient of 1 and roots 21 and 31 with multiplicity 1?

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Which i think is the first one, there may just be a typing error.

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial of order n has the following format:

$f(x) = a(x - x_{0})(x - x_{1})...(x - x_{n-1})$

In which a is the leading coefficient, $x_{0}, x_{1},..., x_{n-1}$ are the roots.

If a root appears m times, they are said to have multiplicity m.

Leading coefficient of 1 and roots 21 and 31 with multiplicity 1

$f(x) = 1(x - 21)(x - 31)$

So the correct answer is:

$f(x) = 1(x - 21)(x - 31)$

Which i think is the first one, there may just be a typing error.

Answer:

Lead-the-market pay strategies. An employer may choose to establish an internal compensation strategy that is in excess of the pay rates in the prevailing marketplace. This compensation strategy may increase the supply of candidates, increase selection rates of qualified applicants, decrease employee turnover, increase morale and productivity, or prevent unionization efforts. However, prior to implementing a lead compensation strategy, an organization should carefully consider what benefits it expects to realize from such a strategy, keeping in mind that this type of structure has the greatest propensity of increasing overall labor costs.
