Slope is known as rise over run. Because the line is pointing "\", it is negative.
The rise, the distance from one point to another, specifically from (0,4) to (1,1) is 3, as 4-1=3. your run is 1-0=1.
So your rise over run is -3/1 or, -3.
Your y-int is where when x=0, y=?
In this case y=4 when x=0.
Your equation is
y=-3x+4
Answer:
Higher
Step-by-step explanation:
1) In Macroeconomics, The core inflation rate does not include food and energy since these categories are way more volatile, due to oil and season matters. And statistically this measure looks for more robust items, to compose the core inflation in a more accurate way. The Consumer Prices Index (CPI) is the metric used for the cost of living.
Another Index, used by the Fed is the PCE, for the goods and services consumed by the US residents.
So, the Core inflation is based on CPI and PCE, <em>Personal Consumption Expenditure</em> therefore the inflation rate for the past year was higher than 4%, for it is not solely based on CPI index.
Answer:
You did not post the options, but i will try to answer this in a general way.
Because we have two solutions, i know that we are talking about quadratic equations, of the form of:
0 = a*x^2 + b*x + c.
There are two easy ways to see if the solutions of this equation are real or not.
1) look at the graph, if the graph touches the x-axis, then we have real solutions (if the graph does not touch the x-axis, we have complex solutions).
2) look at the determinant.
The determinant of a quadratic equation is:
D = b^2 - 4*a*c.
if D > 0, we have two real solutions.
if D = 0, we have one real solution (or two real solutions that are equal)
if D < 0, we have two complex solutions.
