Answer:

The slope is $\frac{3}{2}$

The y-intercept is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the equation that passes through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is y = m x + b, where

m is the slope of the line whose rule is $m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

b is the y-intercept, you can find it by substituting x, y in the equation by (x1, y1) OR (x2, y2)

Let us solve the question:

Choose any two-point from the table

∵ The line passes through the points (2, 12) and (4, 15)

∴ x1 = 2 and x2 = 4

∴ y1 = 12 and y2 = 15

→ Use the rule of m to find it

∵ $m=\frac{15-12}{4-2}=\frac{3}{2}$

∴ m = $\frac{3}{2}$

∴ The slope is $\frac{3}{2}$

→ Substitute its value in the form of the equation above

∴ y = $\frac{3}{2}$ x + b

→ To find b substitute x and y by x1 and y1

∴ 12 = $\frac{3}{2}$ (2) + b

∴ 12 = 3 + b

→ Subtract 3 from both sides

∴ 12 -3 = 3 - 3 + b

∴ 9 = b

∴ The y-intercept is 9

Here , we are provided with a table which shows 5 consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence . But before solving further , let's recall that ;

The n'th term of a Arithmetic Sequence let's say it be ${\sf T_n}$ is given by ;

${\boxed{\bf T_{n}=T_{1}+(n-1)d}}$

Where , d is the common difference

Now , here we are given with ;

${\quad \qquad \sf \blacktriangleright \blacktriangleright \blacktriangleright T_{1}=8 \: and \: T_{5}=-4}$

We have to find the 2nd , 3rd and 4th term respectively ,

Now , by using the above formula , 5th term can be written as ;

${: \implies \quad \sf T_{1}+(5-1)d=T_{5}}$

Putting the values and transposing 1st term to RHS , we have ;

${: \implies \quad \sf 4d = -4-8}$

${: \implies \quad \sf d=-\dfrac{12}{4}}$

${: \implies \quad \sf d=-3}$

Now , as we got the common difference , so we can find out the missing terms now ;

${: \implies \quad \sf T_{2}= T_{1}+(2-1)d}$

${: \implies \quad \sf T_{2}= 8 +d}$

${: \implies \quad \sf T_{2}= 8-3}$

${: \implies \quad \bf \therefore \: T_{2}= 5}$

Now

${: \implies \quad \sf T_{3}= T_{1}+(3-1)d}$

${: \implies \quad \sf T_{3}= 8 +2d}$

${: \implies \quad \sf T_{3}= 8-6}$

${: \implies \quad \bf \therefore \: T_{3}= 2}$

Also ,

${: \implies \quad \sf T_{4}= T_{1}+(4-1)d}$

${: \implies \quad \sf T_{4}= 8 +3d}$

${: \implies \quad \sf T_{4}= 8-9}$

${: \implies \quad \bf \therefore \: T_{4}= -1}$

Now , The given table can be written as ;

${\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|}\cline{1-6} \bf n & \sf 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 \\ \cline{1-6} \bf T_{n} & \sf 8 & 5 & 2 & -1 & -4 \end{array}}$

This question is incomplete

Complete Question

In the first half of a basketball game, a player scored 9 points on free throws and then scored a number of 2-point shots. In the second half, the player scored the same number of 3-point shots as the number of 2-point shots scored in the first half. Which expression represents the total number of points the player scored in the game?

a) 2x + 3x + 9

b) 2x + 3 + 9

c) 2x + 3x + 9x

d) 2 + 3x + 9

Answer:

a) 2x + 3x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of points shots a player scores = x

In a free throw, the player scored 9 points = 9

The player also scored a number of 2-point shots = 2x

In the second half, the player scored the same number of 3-point shots as the number of 2-point shots scored in the first half = 3x

The expression represents the total number of points the player scored in the game =

2x + 3x + 9

L || m

Alona [7]

Answer:

c. m∠1 + m∠6 = m∠4 + m∠6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The lines l and m are parallel lines.

The parallel lines cut two transverse lines. Here we can use the properties of transverse and find the incorrect statements.

a. m∠1 + m∠2 = m∠3 + m∠4

Here m∠1 and m∠2 are supplementary angles add upto 180 degrees.

m∠3 and m∠4 are supplementary angles add upto 180 degrees.

Therefore, the statement is true.

b. m∠1 + m∠5 = m∠3 + m∠4

m∠1 + m∠5 = 180 same side of the adjacent angles.

m∠3 + m∠4 = 180, supplementary angles add upto 180 degrees.

Therefore, the statement is true.

Now let's check c.

m∠1 + m∠6 = m∠4 + m∠6

We can cancel out m∠6, we get

m∠1 = m∠4 which is not true

Now let's check d.

m∠3 + m∠4 = m∠7 + m∠4

We can cancel out m∠4, we get

m∠3 = m∠7, alternative interior angles are equal.

It is true.

Therefore, answer is c. m∠1 + m∠6 = m∠4 + m∠6
