Answer:
y = -x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
✔️Find the slope using (9, 0) and (7, 2):
Slope (m) = -1
✔️Find the y-intercept (b):
The line intercepts the y-axis when y = 9. Therefore, y-intercept (b) = 9
✔️Substitute m = -1 and b = 9 into y = mx + b
Thus,
y = -1(x) + 9
y = -x + 9
Answer:
1.) 12 hours 2.) She made a multiplying error in the table.
Step-by-step explanation:
1.)
First, let's find the slope of this equation:
m = 135 - 81 / 5 - 3
m = 54/2
m = 27
Therefore, the equation should be y = 27x.
Now we substitute 324 for y and solve for x:
324 = 27x
12 = x (Divided 27 on both sides.)
Therefore, someone would have to work 12 hours in order to earn $324.
2.)
For this problem, it appears Amanda has found the correct equation for her recipe. When taking a look at the table, however, it seems as though she has made a multiplying error.
Answer:
C) The domain represents the weeks that have passed since Samantha started counting the kittens. The domain is all whole numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem statement tells you the independent variable w represents weeks that have passed. "Domain" refers to values the independent variable may have, so choices A or B make no sense here.
Time is measured continuously, and fractions of a week are possible. So, the domain could be <em>non-negative real numbers</em>. However, the answer choice D is "<em>all</em> real numbers", which includes negative numbers for which the function makes no sense.
The domain "all whole numbers" includes non-negative integers. It is reasonable to restrict the domain to non-negative integer numbers of weeks, so answer choice C is the best option.
-2x^2 + 3x - 9 = 0
The quadratic is not factorable so quadratic formula must be used.
x = (-b + - √(b^2 - 4ac))/2a
a = -2, b = 3, c = -9
x = (-3 + - √(9 - 4*-2*-9))/-4
x = (-3 + - √(-63))/-4
x = -3 + - 3i√7
--------------
-4
x = 3 + 3i√7 x = 3 - 3i√7
------------ ------------
4 4
