So let's start by guesstimating the slopes:
the green line has a slope close to -x, but more negative than that, possibly -2; the pink line has a slope close to +x, but higher towards +2.
Next let's look at the solution: the two lines intersect at the point (1, -1).
**you could just simple plug that x (1) into all the equations, but let's rule out answers anyway. ;)
A) is incorrect because the slopes of -1 and +1 are off from out predicted -2 and +2
B) is incorrect because of a similar reason, the slopes of +3 and +1 don't make any sense
C) Ooh, we do have a +2 and -2 for the slopes, and... violà! plug in 1 for the x's and we get -1 for the y in both equations
D) slopes are closer than in A and B, but plugging in 1 doesn't get us -1
So the correct answer is:
C) y = 2x - 3 and y = −2x + 1
5^-3 is 1/125
The negative in the exponent makes it so there is a 1 over the problem if there was no negative. When you have a negative in the exponent, the answer will be the reciprocal (opposite) of the question with no negative.
For example,
9^2 = 81
9^-2 = 1/81
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
£63 = 135 × 63
= Rs . 8505
Rs . 8505 = 8505 / 105
= $81
Answer:
62.8 in2
Step-by-step explanation:
With round pizza we need to
find the area of each pizza in
square inches, then determine
the difference.
The area of a circle is given by:
A = πr2
12 inch diameter, radius = 6
a = π(62) = 36π in2
8 inch diameter, radius = 4
a = π(42) = 16π in2
Difference: 36π - 16π = 20π in2
using 3.14 for pi, the difference is
20(3.14) = 62.8 in2
