4 0

Answer:

Slope: -\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Use slope formula to find the slope

m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2- x1}=\frac{4-1}{-2-7}=\frac{3}{-9} =-\frac{1}{3}

Therefore the slope of a line that passes through (-2, 4) and (7, 1) is -\frac{1}{3}

N is a negative integer, and p is a positive integer.
mart [117]

Answer:

Option C) The two quantities are equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

n is a negative integer and p is a positive integer.

Quantity A: The product of the integers from n to p

Quantity B: 0

Quantity A is the product of integers from n to p. Since all the integers from n to p will include zero between them, thus the product of all the integers from n to p will be zero.

The product takes place in the following manner:

-n_x\times -n_{x-1}\times....\times -n_1\times 0\times p_1\times...\times p_{y-1}\times p_y = 0

Thus, both the quantities are equal.

Option C) The two quantities are equal.

Please help need this done now hurry 1 question below!! 25 points
timofeeve [1]
So we need to find the inequality, Simple! 
So we only have 5 dollars. That we cannot change. 
But the snadwich, however, we can change how much we buy. But this problem is asking us how many we can buy. So that is an x. So far, we have 2.25x.
Then we have to use the inequality sign 'less than or equal to' because we can buy less or equal to 5 dollars. 

So the equation is 2.25x \leq 5
Then we solve by isolating the x. We divide 2.25 both sides then we get x \leq 2

Jenny studied the characteristics of two species of bacteria. The number of bacteria of species A, A(t), after t hours is repres
fredd [130]

Answer: D . N(t) = 3 + (0.25t)^3 - 8(1.06)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Jenny studied the characteristics of two species of bacteria. The number of bacteria of species A, A(t), after t hours is represented by the function,

A(t) = 5 + (0.25t)^3

The number of bacteria of species B, B(t), after t hours is represented by the function, B(t) = 2 + 8(1.06)^t

Then, the difference in the number of bacteria, N(t), of both the species after t hours will be :-

N(t)=A(t)-B(t)\\\\=5 + (0.25t)^3-(2 + 8(1.06)^t)\\\\=5 + (0.25t)^3-2-8(1.06)^t\\\\=5-2 +(0.25t)^3-8(1.06)^t\\\\=3+(0.25t)^3-8(1.06)^t

Hence, the correct answer should be : D . N(t) = 3 + (0.25t)^3 - 8(1.06)^t

According to the fundamental theorem of algebra, how many zeros does the function f(x) = 4x3 − x2 − 2x + 1 have?
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: 3 zeroes.


Explanation:-

  • The fundamental theorem of algebra states that any polynomial with degree m>0  and complex coefficients has atleast one complex root.
  • Corollary of fundamental theorem states that for any polynomial with degree m>0 has exactly m solutions.

The given function is f(x)=4x^3-x^2-2x+1

Because it is a polynomial function with degree 3>0 , Therefore by corollary of fundamental theorem of algebra , it has 3 zeroes.

What is the surface area of a conical grain storage tank that has a height of 37 meters and a diameter of 16 meters? Round the a
jek_recluse [69]
The surface area of a cone is equal to the base plus the lateral area.

The base is a circle, and has a diameter of 16 meters.
The radius is always half the diameter, so it is 8 meters.
The area of a circle = πr², where r is the radius. π(8)² = 64π ≈ 201.06193
The area of the base is ≈ 201.06193.

To find the lateral area of the cone, we need to find the slant height.
Since the height, radius, and slant height of the cone form a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the slant height with what we are given.
radius² + height² = slant height²
8² + 37² = slant height²
64 + 1369 = slant height²
1433 = slant height²
slant height = √1433

The lateral area of a cone is equal to πrl, where r = radius and l = slant height.
πrl = π(8)(√1433) ≈ 951.39958
(there are other formulas which do the same thing, but it doesn't matter.)

Now we add the lateral area and base together to find our surface area.
201.06193 + 951.39958 = 1152.46151 which rounds to C. 1,152 m².
