STEPS:
1. Using a straightedge, draw a reference line, if one is not provided.
2. Draw a dot on the reference line to mark your starting point for the construction.
3. Place the point of the compass on point A on the given figure.
4. Stretch the compass so that the pencil is exactly on B. Make a small arc through B.
(This small arc will show that you measured the length of the segment with your compass.)
5. Without changing the span of the compass, place the compass point on the starting point (dot) on the reference line and swing the pencil to create an arc crossing the reference line.
6. Label your copy.
Answer:
12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
If the number of workers injured in each accident is i<em>ndependent </em>of the number of accidents that occur, <em>then the expected number of workers injured in a week equals the expected number of accidents per week times the expected number of workers injured in each accident.
</em>
But the expected number of workers injured in each accident is precisely the average or mean, so
<em>Expected number of workers injured in a week = 5*2.5 = 12.5.
</em>
Or in other words, in 10 weeks there will probably be 125 workers injured.
The point-slope form:
The formula of a slope:
We have the points A(-2, 6) and B(2, -2). Substitute:
Answer:
Slope = -2
y-intercept = -3/5
Falling
Step-by-step explanation:
m = Slope = -2
y-intercept = b =
The slope of the equation has a negative number so the graph is falling
Answer:
y = 2x + 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the line is parallel to y = 2x - 5, its slope is also 2x, as parallel lines have the same slope, leaving you with y = 2x.
Since it intercepts the y-axis at 1/3, and y = 2x intercepts the y-axis at 0, you will now need to add a 1/3 to the end of the equation for it to intersect the y-axis at the right place.
Therefore, the equation is: y = 2x + 1/3
