Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the points be <u>(0, a)</u> and <u>(a, 0)</u> (As it mentions the intercepts are equal)
==============================================================
Applying slope formula :
⇒ m = 0 - a / a - 0
⇒ m = -a/a
⇒ <u>m = -1</u>
Answer:
1/3 of the original
Step-by-step explanation:
one piece is TWO times longer than the other one. if you break it in half you have three pieces that are all the same size
Answer:
A. 5x^2 − 2x − 24 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
height = 5b-2
b =x
We can rewrite the height as
h = 5x-2
We know the formula for area of a triangle
A = 1/2 bh
A =1/2 x * (5x-2)
Distributing the x
A= 1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)
We know A =12
12 = 1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)
Multiply each side by 2
12*2 = 2*1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)
24 = 5x^2 - 2x
Subtract 24 from each side
24-24 = 5x^2 - 2x-24
0 = 5x^2 - 2x-24
Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
You got everything correct so far except for #4.
4. Yes, it is 1. But it would be in months.
So you would put:
1 month = x
12 months = 1 year.
Since the population increases by 1.5 times a <em>month.</em>
For question number 3.
The equation should be:
<- Function
<- Function when x is 12 months (1 year)
(Put those both the same way I put it.)
It gives you the equation to work with, you just have to plug in the values.
1.5 is in the parenthesis because it needs to be the one that is raised by an exponent.
100 is the initial population, so it stays on the outside.
x is the exponent
