Answer: C) 5
--------------
x = independent variable, y = dependent variable
Assuming this is a linear function, each increase of x by 2 leads to y going up by 10. So 10/2 = 5 is the unit increase each time x bumps up by 1.
-------------------
An alternative is to use the slope formula to get
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (25 - 15)/(4 - 2)
m = 10/2 <--- this expression shows up again
m = 5 <---- leading to the same answer as before
So we see that the slope formula is a more drawn out method to finding the answer.
Solve each equation for y and then the slope is m and y-intercept is b as in:
So, if you do that, you'll get (remember, this is <em>after</em> solving for y):
1. m = -6, b = -2
2. m = 5, b = -1
3. m = -5/3, b = 5
4. m = 0, b = -1/4
5. m = -1, b = -3
6. m = 3, b = -4
7. m = 1/2, b = -5/2
8. m = 7/2, b = 1
Hope this helps.
Answer:
The number of ways this can be done is 1,260 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to calculate the number of ways in which the letters of the word balloon can be arranged.
To do this, we take into consideration those letters that are repeated and the number of times repeated. The letters are l and o and are repeated two times each.
The number of ways = 7!/2!2! = 5040/4 = 1,260 ways
Answer:
D. 49
Step-by-step explanation:
When completing the square, you take the value after x^2 which is 14 and divide it by 2 which equals 7 for which you then square that number which 7 times 7 = 49
