Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope of a line using two points by

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

= (3-2)/(4 - -1)

(3-2) /( 4+1)

1/5

Answer:

B. 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope can be found through two points.

m = rise/run

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (3 - 2)/(4 - (- 1))

m = 1/(4+1)

m = 1/5

Th slope of the line going through the points (-1, 2) and (4, 3) is 1/5.

notka56 [123]

Answer:

1) $x=\dfrac12$

2) $n = -3 \ \ \textsf{and} \ \ m = -4$

3) see below

4) A: 0 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1

$15-0.5(4x-2)+4x=17$

$\implies 15-2x+1+4x=17$

$\implies 2x+16=17$

$\implies 2x=1$

$\implies x=\dfrac12$

Question 2

$\textsf{rearrange} \ n=m+1 :$

$\implies -m=-n+1$

$\textsf{add equations} \ -m=-n+1 \ \textsf{and} \ m=2n+2:\\$

$\implies0=n+3$

$\implies n=-3$

$\textsf{substitute} \ \ n=-3 \ \ \textsf{into} \ \ m=n-1:$

$\implies m=-3-1$

$\implies m=-4$

Question 3

subtract the second equation from the first

divide both sides by -4

substitute found value for y into first equation

solve for x

Question 4

$3j=k$

$k=3j+1$

$\textsf{rearrange} \ 3j=k :$

$\implies -k=-3j$

$\textsf{add equations}\ -k=-3j \ \ \textsf{and}\ \ k=3j+1:$

$\implies 0=1$

Solution = A

A rabbit population doubles every 4 weeks. There are currently five rabbits in a restricted area. If t represents the time, in w

Mumz [18]

98 days = (98 ⁄ 7) weeks = 14 weeks

Po = initial population = 5 

Ƭ = doubling time in weeks 

t = elapsed time in weeks 

P{t} = population after "t" weeks 

 P{t} = (Po)•2^(t ⁄ Ƭ) 

 P{t} = (Po)•2^(t ⁄ 4) 

 P{t} = 5•2^(t ⁄ 4) 

 P{14} = (5)•2^(14 ⁄ 4) … t = 14 weeks = 98 days 

 P{14} = 56 … population after 14 weeks
