1 answer:

4 0

Answer: You would need to buy 1320 tickets to guarantee a win.

In a trifecta race, you have to select the correct 1st, 2nd and 3rd places in order.

Therefore, the number of possibilities would be:
13 x 12 x 11 = 1320

Find the constant rate of change for each linear function and interpret its meaning

Marina CMI [18]

the slope goes by several names

• average rate of change

• rate of change

• deltaY over deltaX

• Δy over Δx

• rise over run

• gradient

• constant of proportionality

however, is the same cat wearing different costumes.

and to get it, we simply need two points off of the straight line, hmm let's use the ones in the picture below.

$(\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{6}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{6}-\stackrel{y1}{4}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{6}-\underset{x_1}{2}}}\implies \cfrac{2}{4}\implies \cfrac{1}{2}$
