M= -8 - -5/ 3 - 15= -8+5/3-15= -3/-12 = 3/12 = 1/4 


The slope is 1/4. 
The slope formula is m=y2-y1/x2-x1. I plugged in -8=y2, -5=y1, 3=x2, and 15=x1. Then I solved it.

Factor
find wht 2 numbers add to 8 and multiply to 3
none do

use quadratic formula which can be used when
ax^2+bx+c=0
x=\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^{2}}-4ac }{2a}

a=1
b=8
c=3

x=\frac{-8+/- \sqrt{8^{2}-4(1)(3)} }{2(1)}
x=\frac{ -8+/- \sqrt{64-12} }{2}
x=\frac{ -8+/- \sqrt{52} }{2}
x=\frac{ -8+/- 2 \sqrt{13} }{2}
x=-4+/- \sqrt{13}

x=-4+ \sqrt{13} or x=-4- \sqrt{13}
aprox x=-7.60555 or x=-0.394449

Find the image of each polygon with the given vertices after a dilation centered at the origin with the given scale factor. J(2,
MAVERICK [17]

Applying a dilation centered at the origin with scale factor k has the effect of multiplying both coordinates of a point by k:

(x,y)\mapsto (kx,ky)

So, in your case, the coordinates of the points double:

J'=(4,8),\quad K'=(8,8),\quad P'=(6,4)

Three sevenths of a children's choir are boys. If there are 12 boys in the choir, how many children, c, total are in the choir?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Here c represents the total number of children  in choir.

As per the statement:

Total number of boys in choir = 12

It is also given that: Three sevenths of a children's choir are boys.

⇒ Total number of boys = \frac{3}{7} c

or

12 = \frac{3}{7}c

By cross multiply we have;

84 = 3c

Divide both sides by 3 we have;

c = 28

Therefore, the total number of children in choir is 28 children
