Answer:  The required slope of the line GH is -\dfrac{9}{7}.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the line GH contains the points G(-2, 6) and H(5, -3).

We are to find the slope of GH.

The slope of a line segment containing the points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by

m=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}.

Therefore, the slope of the line GH is given by

m=\dfrac{-3-6}{5-(-2)}=-\dfrac{9}{7}.

Thus, the required slope of the line GH is -\dfrac{9}{7}.

If you divide one of the roots of the equation 4x2+bx−27=0 by the other root, the quotient will be −3. Find b.
klio [65]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

  ±12   (two answers)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Suppose one root is <em>a</em>. Then the other root will be -3<em>a</em>. The product of the two roots is the ratio of the constant coefficient to the leading coefficient:

  (<em>a</em>)(-3<em>a</em>) = -27/4

  <em>a</em>² = -27/(4·(-3)) = 9/4

  <em>a</em> = ±√(9/4) = ±3/2

Then the other root is

  -3<em>a</em> = -3(±3/2) = ±9/2 . . . . . . the roots will have opposite signs

We know the opposite of the sum of these roots will be the ratio of the linear term coefficient to the leading coefficient: b/4, so ...

  -(a + (-3a)) = b/4

  2a = b/4

  b = 8a = 8·(±3/2)

  b = ±12

_____

<em>Check</em>

For b = 12, the equation factors as ...

  4x² +12x -27 = (2x -3)(2x +9) = 0

  It has roots -9/2 and +3/2, the ratio of which is -3.

For b = -12, the equation factors as ...

  4x² -12x -27 = (2x +3)(2x -9) = 0

  It has roots 9/2 and -3/2, the ratio of which is -3.

EMERGENCY momoninos operations 1.) 2a-3b divided by 6 2.) 4m+5n divided by 12 3.) 5m-4x divided by -3 4.) 4x+8y-3z divided by 9
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

1) (a/3) - (b/2)

2) (m/3) + (5n/12)

3) (-5m/3) + (4x/3)

4) (4x/9) + (8y/9) - (z/3)

5) (-5a/8) + (-3b/8) + (-3c/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 2a-3b divided by 6

(2a-3b)/6 = (2a/6) - (3b)/6 = (a/3) - (b/2)

2) 4m+5n divided by 12

(4m+5n)/12 = (4m/12) + (5n/12) = (m/3) + (5n/12)

3) 5m-4x divided by -3

(5m-4x)/(-3) = (-5m/3) + (4x/3)

4) 4x+8y-3z divided by 9

(4x+8y-3z)/9 = (4x/9) + (8y/9) - (3z/9) = (4x/9) + (8y/9) - (z/3)

5) 5a+3b+12c divided by -8

(5a+3b+12c)/(-8) = (-5a/8) + (-3b/8) + (-12c/8) = (-5a/8) + (-3b/8) + (-3c/2)

There are eight students in a class. Only one of them has passed Exam P/1 and only one of them has passed Exam FM/2. No student
Svetach [21]

Answer: There is probability of 0.57 chances that exactly three students from a group of four students have not passed Exam P/1 or Exam FM/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students = 8

Number of student who has passed Exam P/1 = 1

Number of student who has passed Exam FM/2 = 1

No student has passed more than one exam.

According to question, exactly three students from a randomly chose group of four students have not passed Exam P/1 or Exam FM/2.

So, Probability will be

\frac{^6C_3\times ^2C_1}{^8C_4}\\\\=\frac{20\times 2}{70}\\\\=\frac{4}{7}\\\\=0.57

Hence, there is probability of 0.57 chances that exactly three students from a group of four students have not passed Exam P/1 or Exam FM/2.
