Answer:

4  assignments of math

Step-by-step explanation:

Gerald can complete a math assignment in 2 hours

Gerald can complete a physics  assignment in 1 hours

Equation : 2x+y=8

where x is the number of completed math assignments

y is the number of completed science assignments.

Since we are given that he decided to leave science assignment for the next day .

So, substitute y = 0

\Rightarrow 2x+0=8

\Rightarrow x=\frac{8}{2}

\Rightarrow x=4

Hence he can complete 4 assignments of math if he decides to leave the science assignments for the next day.

The set of points P(0, 3), Q(2, 0), R(4, -3) are collinear and the line has a slope of _____.
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

slope = -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

A set of three or more points are said to be collinear if they all lie on the same straight line.

We have been given the following collinear set of points;

P(0, 3), Q(2, 0), R(4, -3)

This implies that P, Q, and R lie on the same line.

The slope of a line is defined as; (change in y)/(change in x)

Using the points P and Q, the slope of the line is calculated as;

(0-3)/(2-0) = -3/2 = -1.5
