Any number divisivble by 2 is also divisible by 8. Find a counter example to show that the conjecture is false.

Vladimir [108]

In the case of whole numbers, dividing 2 by itself would prove the conjecture false.

2/2 = 1

2/8 = 0.25

(1.)Find the slope of the line that passes through the given pair of points. (If an answer is undefined, enter UNDEFINED.) (?a +

jekas [21]

Answer:

1. The slope of the line is $m=\frac{-2b+3}{2a}$ .

2. The value of a is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line passes through two points, then the slope of the line is

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

(1)

It is given that the line passes through the points (-a + 3, b - 3) and (a + 3, -b). So, the slope of the line is

$m=\frac{-b-(b-3)}{a+3-(-a+3)}$

$m=\frac{-b-b+3}{a+3+a-3)}$

$m=\frac{-2b+3}{2a}$

The slope of the line is $m=\frac{-2b+3}{2a}$ .

(2)

If the line passing through the points (a, 1) and (6, 5), then the slope of the line is

$m_1=\frac{5-1}{6-a}=\frac{4}{6-a}$

If the line passing through the points (2, 7) and (a + 2, 1), then the slope of the line is

$m_2=\frac{1-7}{a+2-2}=\frac{-6}{a}$

The slopes of two parallel lines are same.

$m_1=m_2$

$\frac{4}{6-a}=\frac{-6}{a}$

On cross multiplication we get

$4a=-6(6-a)$

$4a=-36+6a$

$4a-6a=-36$

$-2a=-36$

Divide both sides by -2.

$a=18$

Therefore the value of a is 18.

Find a polynomial function that has the given zeros. (there are many correct answers.) 0, 1, 6

aev [14]

Since those are the zeros, we can say that the equation would have to be
x(x-1)(x-6), then we just expand to get x^3 - 7x^2 + 6x

There are 122,100 public school teachers in Ohio and Ohio has a population of 11.6 million people. Illinois has a population of 12.9 million people. If the number of public school teachers per capita in Illinois was proportional to that of Ohio, how many public school teachers would we expect Illinois to have?

This problem uses proportionality or the relationship between two values. Typically, proportions are expressed as fractions. So, we can set this up as

$\frac{Teachers}{Population}$ and we can use this to express both of our values. So, for Ohio, we have $\frac{122,100}{11,600,000}$ and for Illinois we have $\frac{x}{12,900,900}$ . Now, because they are proportional, we can set them equal to each other and we get $\frac{122,100}{11,600,00} = \frac{x}{12,900,000}$ . Now we can cross multiply to get $11,600,000x=1446090000000$ . To get the $x$ alone on one side, we divide by $11,600,000$ and we get 124,662.931034, which is about equal to 124,663.

Therefore, we expect Illinois to have 124,663 public school teachers
