A

to calculate the slope m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, - 2 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 1, - 5 )

m = \frac{-5+2}{-1-7} = \frac{-3}{-8} = \frac{3}{8} → A

What is the solution set of {x | x < 2} {x | x ≥ 2}? all numbers less than -5 and greater than 5 the empty set the numbers be
juin [17]

Answer:

The solution set is the empty set.

Step-by-step explanation:

{x | x < 2} is the set of all numbers less than 2. This means x can take values such as 1.99, 0, -2000 and so on. That is, all values less than 2.

{x | x ≥ 2} is the set of all numbers equal to or greater than 2. This means x can take values such as 2, 2.1, 5000, and so on. That is, 2 or any value greater than 2.

Since there is no sign between the two sets, the question is asking for the intersection between these two sets. That is, what elements are common to these two sets? As we can see, the two sets don't have any common element. Hence, their intersection is the empty set.

(Note that the union of these two sets would be the set of all real numbers as that includes all elements from either set).

muminat

There are infinite equivalent expressions. Here are some:

1/5(m-100)

20(1/100m-1)

1/5m-(4•5)

If you expand any of these or any of the terms, you will get an equivalent expression.

The following graph shows a proportional relationship.
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The constant of proportionality is thus 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the green line passes through (6, 6) and has a y-intercept of 0.  Thus, the equation of the line is y = (6/6)x + 0, or y = x, or y = 1x.

The constant of proportionality is thus 1, which is also the slope of this line.

A circle has a diameter of 22 cm. What is its circumference?
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

\boxed {\tt 69.08 \ centimeters}

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of a circle can be found using the following formula:

c= \pi d

where d is the diameter. We know the diameter of the circle is 22 centimeters. Substitute the value in for d.

d= 22 \ cm

c= \pi* 22 \ cm

We also know we are using 3.14 for pi. Substitute it in for pi.

c= 3.14 * 22 \ cm

Multiply.

c=69.08 \ cm

The circumference of the circle is 69.08 centimeters.
