Slope =change of y over change of x

(2, −5) and (4, 1)

M= 1-(-5)/4-2

M=6/2

M=3

So the slope is 3.

If you need the equation

Y=mx+b

(4, 1)

1= 3(4)+b

1=12+b

1-12=b

-11=b

So equation

Y=3x-11

Answer:

-7x^3+8x^2+x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are simply adding the two functions:

f(x) + g(x) = (2x^2-5x^3+x-7) + (6x^2-2x^3+2) = 8x^2-7x^3+x-5 = -7x^3+8x^2+x-5

A kangaroo hopped \dfrac13 3 1 ? of the distance to the lake with her baby in her pouch. She hopped the remaining 70407040 yards

kogti [31]

Answer:

6 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total distance hoped by Kangaroo to the lake.

We have been given that a kangaroo hopped 1/3 of the distance to the lake with her baby in her pouch.

She hopped the remaining 7040 yards without her baby in her pouch. This means that 2/3 of total distance (x) is 7040. We can represent this information in an equation as:

$\frac{2}{3}*x=7040$

Let us solve for x by multiplying both sides of our equation by 3/2.

$\frac{3}{2}*\frac{2}{3}*x=\frac{3}{2}*7040$

$x=3*3520$

$x=10560$

Therefore, the total distance hoped by the kangaroo is 10560 yards.

1 mile = 1760 yards

Let us convert this distance in miles by dividing 10560 yards by 1760.

$\text{The kangaroo hoped}=\frac{10560\text{ yards}}{\frac{1760\text{ yards}}{\text{Mile}}}$

$\text{The kangaroo hoped}=\frac{10560\text{ yards}}{1760}\times \frac{\text{ Mile}}{\text{ yards}}$

$\text{The kangaroo hoped}=\frac{10560}{1760}\times\text{ Mile}$

$\text{The kangaroo hoped}=6\text{ Miles}$

Therefore, the kangaroo hoped 6 miles to the lake.
