Haley buys 9 pounds of apples for $3. How many pounds of apples can she buy for $1?

An independent variable is ___. A. directly changed by the experimenter B. manipulated by changes to the dependent variable C. a

Nikitich [7]

Correct answer choice is :

<h2>A) Directly changed by the experimenter</h2><h2 /><h2>Explanation:</h2><h2 />

In mathematical modeling, analytical modeling and experimental sciences, the values of dependent variables depend on the values of independent variables. The dependent variables describe the output or outcome whose change is being examined. An independent variable seldom named an experimental or predictor variable, is a variable that is being formed in an experiment in order to inspect the impact on a dependent variable, sometimes described as an outcome variable.

How do i find the slope

Elodia [21]

Hi, I'm happy to help!

To find the slope, you need to use the slope formula, where m is the slope:

m= $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1 } }{x_{2} -x_{1} }$

Slope means rise over run, or how much the line rises per the amount the line moves forward. This equation shows the movement from the y points to show rise, over the difference in the x points to show run.

Now, to find the slope we insert our values, starting with our second y point:

m= $\frac{2-y_{1 } }{x_{2} -x_{1} }$

Now insert our first y point:

m= $\frac{2-4 }{x_{2} -x_{1} }$

Now we insert our second x point:

m= $\frac{2-4 }{-3 -x_{1} }$

And finally our first x point:

m= $\frac{2-4 }{-3 -3 }$

Now, we solve:

m= $\frac{-2 }{-6}$

So, our slope is -2/-6, to simplify it, we remove both negatives because they cancel each other out.

m= $\frac{2 }{6}$

Now, we simplify our fraction by dividing the top and bottom by 2:

m= $\frac{1}{3}$

So, our slope is 1/3. This means that for every 1 unit the line rises, it goes to the right 3 units. The y-intercept is where the line hits the y axis.

If the question is asking for slope intercept form for the equation, you use y=mx+b

y represents any y coordinate on your line, m represents your slope (1/3), x represents any x coordinate on your line, and b represents your y-intercept (3).

If you were to insert these values, you would get:

y= $\frac{1}{3}$ x+3

You use this to find what a y coordinate would be so you can draw your line.

For the next equation we do the same thing:

m= $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1 } }{x_{2} -x_{1} }$

Insert our values:

m= $\frac{4-1}{2-(-4)}$

Get rid of the double negative:

m= $\frac{4-1}{2+4}$

Solve:

m= $\frac{3}{6}$

Simplify:

m= $\frac{1}{2}$

Now that we know our slope, let's plug it in to our slope intercept form equation.

y= $\frac{1}{2}$ x+3

I hope this was helpful! Keep learning! :D

You are flying a kite on a line that is 350 feet long. Let's suppose the line is perfectly straight (it never really is) and it

aliina [53]

Answer:

We can think that the line of the kite is the hypotenuse of a triangle rectangle, and the altitude is one of the cathetus of the triangle.

And we know that it makes an angle of 65° with the horizontal (i guess this is measured between the hypotenuse and the horizontal adjacent to the kite.

This angle is complementary to the top angle of our triangle rectangle, such that A + 65° = 90°

A = 90° - 65° = 25°

Then the altitude of the kite is the adjacent cathetus to this angle.

We can use the relation:

sin(A) = Adjacent cathetus/hypotenuse.

Sin(25°) = X/350ft

Sin(25°)*350ft = X = 147.9m
