Answer:
Option A is the important variable.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given is - At 9:45 a.m. a patient’s temperature was 101.5 degrees at 10:41, the nurse took the patients temperature again and found it was 105.8 degrees, the highest ever recorded.
The variable that is most important here is A: the number of minutes it took for the to reach its peak.
Firstly it is not mentioned if 10:41 is am or pm.
If its am, then such a temperature rise in less than an hour is very dangerous.
So, the important variable is option A.
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify (-10- square root of 125)/5. −10−√1255 - 10 - 125 5. Simplify the numerator.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The center lies on the vertical line x = -5 and the the circle is tangent to (touches in one place only) the y-axis. Thus, the radius is 5.
2) Starting with (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2 and comparing this to the given
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 6^2
we see that h = 4, k = -3 and r = 6. The center is at (4, -3) and the radius is 6.
3) Notice that A and B have the same x-coordinate, x = 15. The center of the circle is thus (15, -2), where that -2 is the halfway point between the two given points in the vertical direction. Arbitrarily choose A(15, 4) as one point on the circle. Then the equation of this circle is
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = r^2 = 6^2, where the 6 is one half of the vertical distance between A(15, 4) and B(15, -8) (which is 12).
Answer:
y = -7x+34
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 2 points, so we can find the slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (6--1)/(4-5)
= (6+1)/(4-5)
= 7/-1
= -7
We can use point slope form to make an equation
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y--1 = -7(x-5)
y+1 = -7(x-5)
Distribute
y+1 = -7x+35
Subtract 1 from each side
y+1-1 = -7x+35-1
y = -7x+34
