(27,0); the distance away from the school

Answer: last option.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

Find the slope of the line with this formula:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Choose two points from the table and substitute the coordinates into the formula. Then, the slope is:

m=\frac{32-36}{3-0}=-\frac{4}{3}

 By definition, the line intersects the y-axis when the value of "x" is zero.  So, based on the table, the y-intercept is:

b=36

Then the equation of the line is:

y=-\frac{4}{3}x+36

The line intersects the x-axis when the value of "y" is zero, then  substituting y=0 into the equation of this line, and solving for "x", you get:

0=-\frac{4}{3}x+36\\\\(-36)(-\frac{3}{4})=x\\\\x=27

So, the point of intersection with the x-axis is:

(27,0)

Since the table shows the distance from school as a function of time, you can conclude that meaning of the x-intercept in this scenario is: "The distance away from the school".

With the substitution method, explain how you find the value of the second variable once you have determined the value of one of
Luden [163]

Once you have found the value of one of the variables(let's say x), you can substitute the value of the variable(x) into the variable(x) of one of the original equations to find the second variable.

Cindy struck out 7, 14, 6, 4, 5, and 6 batters in softball games this season. In discussing her stats with a newspaper reporter,
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The coach's statement is not misleading because her average strikeouts  is 7.

Where as the coach also tells that it is 7.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The average is taken out by adding the observations and dividing by the total number of observations.

X`= ∑x/n     where n is the number of observations.

Average = 7 + 14 + 6 + 4 +5 +6 /6

Average = 42/6= 7

The coach's statement is not misleading because her average strikeouts  is 7.

Where as the coach also tells that it is 7.

4x/5 + 2/3 + 1x/5 = x
Ksju [112]

Answer:

There are no solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4x/5+2/3+1x/5=x

4/5x+2/3+1/5x=x

(4/5x+1/5x)+(2/3)=x(Combine Like Terms)

x+23=x

x+23=x

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.

x+2/3−x=x−x

2/3=0

Step 3: Subtract 2/3 from both sides.

2/3−2/3=0−2/3

0=−2/3

Answer:

There are no solutions.

Given that angle a = 72° and angle b = 37°, work out x.
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

x is 71

Step-by-step explanation:

X + 72 + 37 = 180 ( Sum of angles in a triangle)

X = 180 - 72 - 37

X = 71
