Find the slope of a line whose equation is 3X+6Y=9

Mathematics

Lisa [10]3 years ago

To find the slope of the above equation, it is easiest to put it into slope-intercept form, y=mx + b, where the variable m represents the slope. To do this, we must isolate the variable y on the left side of the equation by using the reverse order of operations. First, we should subtract 3x from both sides of the equation.

3x + 6y = 9

6y = -3x + 9

Next, we should divide both sides of the equation by 6 to undo the coefficent of 6 on the variable y.

y = -1/2x + 3/2

Therefore, the slope of the line is -1/2 (the coefficient of the variable x in slope-intercept form).

Hope this helps!

Complete the recursive formula of the arithmetic sequence - 1, - 13, - 25, - 37
barxatty [35]

Answer:

The recursive formula is aₙ=aₙ₋₁ -12  

Step-by-step explanation:

Recursion is a process in which each step of a pattern depends on the step or the previous steps. So a recursive sequence is a sequence where terms are defined using one or more previous terms that are given.

So a recursive formula allows you to find any term in an arithmetic sequence using a function of the previous term, where each term is the sum of the previous term and the common difference.

So, in this case you can see the common difference of all the terms by doing the following calculations between a term and its previous value:

-13-(-1)=-13+1=-12

-25-(-13)=-25+13=-12

-37-(-25)=-37+25=-12

The common difference is -12

So, <u><em>the recursive formula is aₙ=aₙ₋₁ -12   where each term is the same to the previous term minus 12.</em></u>

A teacher has 396 pieces of candy. If there are 44 students, 6 of whom are boys, if divided evenly, how many pieces of candy wil
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

9 pieces of candy.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information about how many boys there are is irrelevant, so we can just ignore that.

The important information is that the teacher has 396 pieces of candy and that it is split between 44 students equally.

So, to solve, we just do 396 / 44 = 9.

Therefore, each student will get 9 pieces of candy.
