What is the slope of the line? A. -2 B. -1/2 C. 1/2 D. 2

To find the slope, you can either use the slope equation:
(y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
{I would recommend you remember this because you'll need to know this in the future}

or,

Just count. A slope is rise over run, so you see how far up the slope goes from one point to the other, (1), and then you see how far sideways the slope goes (2).
Going right, the slope is naturally declining downwards, so it's a negative.

The answer is B. -1/2.

irina1246 [14]

Based on the table (see attachment), the time which corresponds to the mode of this data set is: B. 9:00 P.M.

<h3>What is mode?</h3>

A mode simply refers to a statistical term that is used to denote the value that appears most often or occurs repeatedly in a given data set.

This ultimately implies that, a mode represents the value (number) with the highest frequency and this is 9:00 P.M with a frequency of 25.

Degger [83]

Answer:

The total price of $4\frac{1}{2}$ pounds of apples is <u>$6.48</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Last week,the price of apples at a grocery store was 1.60 per pound.This week,apples at the same grocery store are on sale for a 10% discount.

Now, to find the total price of 4 1/2 pounds of apples this week at the grocery store.

The price of apples at a grocery store last week was = $1.60 per pound.

This week apples at the same grocery store is on sale of 10% discount.

Thus, the price of apples at a grocery store this week is:

$1.60-10\%\ of\ 1.60.$

$=1.60-\frac{10}{100} \times 1.60$

$=1.60-0.16$

$=\$1.44.$

So, the price of apples per pound this week is $1.44.

Now, to get the total price of $4\frac{1}{2}$ pounds of apples by using unitary method:

If 1 pound of apples cost = $1.44.$

Then, $\frac{9}{2}$ pound of apples cost = $1.44\times \frac{9}{2}$

$=1.44\times 4.5$

$=\$6.48.$

Therefore, the total price of $4\frac{1}{2}$ pounds of apples is $6.48.

Flura [38]

The coordinate of point V is at (-16, 9)

If Point T(-9,5) lies on the perpendicular bisector of UV, this means that the point divides the line UV into two equal parts

Given the following coordinates

Midpoint T = (-9, 5)

U = (-2, 1)

Required

coordinate of point V

Using the midpoint formulas;

$T(x, y) = (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2}) \\T(-9, 5) = (\frac{-2+x_2}{2}, \frac{1+y_2}{2})$

Get the value if x₂ and y₂

$-9 = \frac{-2+x_2}{2}\\-18 = -2+x_2\\x_2 = -18+2\\x_2 = -16\\$

Similarly;

$5 = \frac{1+y_2}{2}\\10 = 1+y_2\\y_2 = 10-1\\y_2 = 9\\$

Hence the coordinate of point V is at (-16, 9)

Solve the following simultaneous equations: 1. a) x-y=-5 and x + y = -1

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

x = -3, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y = -5

x = -5 + y

Let's put this into the other equation

(-5 + y) + y = -1

-5 + 2y = -1

2y = 4

y = 2

Now we can solve for x by plugging y into either equation

x + (2) = -1

x = -3
