Answer:

8763

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of students the college had last year. Then this year's enrollment is ...

... x - 3%·x = 8500

... x(1 - 0.03) = 8500 . . . . . collect terms

... x = 8500/0.97 ≈ 8762.89 . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

Enrollment last year was about 8763.

_____

Of course, you know 3% = 3/100 = 0.03.

The graph of a linear function passes through the points (-1, -1/4) and (1, -3/4). Which equation represents the function ?
lyudmila [28]

The equation of the line will be given as y = -4x - (- 17/ 4).

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.


Given that:-

  • The graph of a linear function passes through the points (-1, -1/4) and (1, -3/4).

The equation of the line will be given as:-

y  -  y₁ = m ( x  -  x₁)

slope m will be calculated as:-

m =\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{1+1}{\dfrac{-3}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}}=-4

The equation will be:-

y  -  (1/4)  =  -4( x +  1 )

y  = -4x  -  (17/4)

Therefore the equation of the line will be given as y = -4x - (- 17/ 4).

Answer:

1. 0

2. undefined

3. -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-3/2. This value is constant and the x does not change the value at all. so the coordinate are going to be (x, -3/2) so if we take any 2 values you're going to get (-3/2 - (-3/2)) / (x2 - x1) = (-3/2 + 3/2) / (x2 - x1) = (0) / (x2 - x1) which is always going to be 0.

x=-3/2. This value is also constant except the x-value does not vary at all so x2 and x1 are always going to be equal which will result in a 0 as the denominator thus making the slope undefined

y=-3/2x. it's just -3/2 given the slope-intercept form y=mx+b where m is the slope
