Answer:

$x_1 = 5, x_2 =11, y_1 =9, y_2 = -3$

The slope can be founded with this formula:

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

And replacing we got:

$m =\frac{-3 -9}{11-5}= -2$

And the best answer for this case would be :

$m=-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following two points given:

$x_1 = 5, x_2 =11, y_1 =9, y_2 = -3$

The slope can be founded with this formula:

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

And replacing we got:

$m =\frac{-3 -9}{11-5}= -2$

And the best answer for this case would be :

$m=-2$

Which graph represents 9x2 – 16y2 – 54x + 64y – 127 = 0?

klasskru [66]

Answer:

Right now I'm wondering what kind of class you are taking to get such a weird graph, but I graphed it for you on the screenie.

Step-by-step explanation:

You should though recheck your question for exponents, as 9x2 could be interpreted differently.

Since exponents to not transition well here, I can assume that it was a 9x^2, so please add an exponent symbol ^ between the variables and exponents next time.

How do you solve 32 - 6x = 53?

katrin2010 [14]

$\large\boxed{x=-\frac{7}{2}}$

To solve for $x$ , we need to isolate it on one side of the equation.

The most important part of this is knowing that whatever we do to one side of the equation, we must also do to the other.

Subtract 32 from both sides of the equation.

$\begin{aligned}32-32-6x&=53-32\\-6x&=21\end{aligned}$

Divide both sides of the equation by $-6$ .

$\begin{aligned}\frac{-6x}{-6}&=\frac{21}{-6}\\x&=\boxed{-\frac{7}{2}}\end{aligned}$

A farmer sells 8.7 kilograms of pears and apples at the farmer's market. 2 5 of this weight is pears, and the rest is apples. Ho

Ivenika [448]

Answer: 5.22kg

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, a farmer sells 8.7 kilograms of pears and apples at the market. Of the pears and apples sold, 2/5 of this weight is pears, and the rest is apples. To calculate the kilograms of apple sold goes thus:

Total kilograms sold = 8.7kg

Fraction of pears weight = 2/5

Pears kilograms sold = 2/5 × 8.7

= 0.4 × 8.7

= 3.48kg

Since the kilograms of pears sold is , 3.48kg, to get the kilograms of apple sold, we subtract 3.48kg from 8.7kg. This will be:

= 8.7kg - 3.48kg

= 5.22kg

For each day that Sasha travels to work, the probability that she will experience a delay due to traffic is 0.2. Each day can be

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

0.8213

Step-by-step explanation:

-This is a binomial probability problem given by the function:

$P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^x(1-p)^{n-x}$

Given that n=21 and p=0.2, the probability that she experience a delay on at least 3 days is calculated as:

$P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^x(1-p)^{n-x}\\\\P(X\geq 3)=1-P(X$

Hence, the probability that she experience delay on at least 3 days is 0.8213
