Answer: 5/8


Step-by-step explanation:


Slope is determined by dividing the amount of vertical movement by the amount of horizontal movement and then simplifying the answer. In this case it is 15/24. To simplify you need to find the least common denominator (LCD), which is 3, and divide both numbers by it. 15/3=5 and 24/3=8, so the answer is 5/8.

If two polynomial equations have real solutions, then will the equation that is the result of adding, subtracting, or multiplyin
kirill115 [55]

No. A polynomial equation in one variablel ooks like P(x) = Q(x), where P and Q are polynomials.

Consider polynomial equations x^2 = 3 and x^2 = 1.

Obviously they have real solutions.

Subtract the two polynomial equations:

(x^2 - x^2) = (3 - 1)

0 = 2...

We get the polynomial equation 0 = 2. We call this a polynomial equation because single constants are also by definition polynomials.

Obviously 0 = 2 has no real solution.

Rewrite the function W= 50+2.3(h-60) in order to express height as a function of weight
OLga [1]
You need to solve the equation for h.

<span>W= 50+2.3(h-60)

Distribute the 2.3.

W = 50 + 2.3h - 138

W = 2.3h - 88

Add 88 to both sides.

W + 88 = 2.3h

Switch sides.

2.3h = W + 88

Divide both sides by 2.3.

h = (W + 88)/2.3

Explain how to use absolute value to find the distance between (-2,-2) and (-2,5)
dem82 [27]

(-2,-2) have the same absolute value while (-2,5) have a different absolute value. Which has a greater absolute value? -25 or 6? The answer: -25, it is farther away from zero.
