The graph of a line gets _____ as the absolute value of the slope gets bigger.

The slope of a line is defined as rise by run i.e. how much y value changes with respect to the change in x value. So the slope gives the steepness of the line.

Slope 0 indicates there is no change in y when the x value is changed and so the line with slope 0 is a horizontal line. A line with slope 1 shows with 1 unit change in x, y changes by 1 unit. Likewise slope equal 2 indicates with 1 unit change in x, y changes by 2 units.

We can see as the absolute value of slope is increasing, the change in y with respect to x is increasing i.e. the line is becoming more tilted or steep.

Hence, we can conclude that:
The graph of a line gets Steeper as the absolute value of the slope gets bigger.
C is the correct answer.

Which of the following is not a function

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The ellipse is not the graph of a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you can draw a vertical line on the graph that intersects the graph in two or more points, the relation shown is <em>not a function</em>.

A vertical line will intersect the ellipse at two points (unless it is tangent to an end of the major axis), so the ellipse is not the graph of a function.

Answer: (A) The image of JKL after a 90° counterclockwise about the origin is shown in figure 1. (B) The image of JKL after a reflection across the y-axis is shown in figure 2.

Explanation:

(A)

From the given figure it is noticed that the coordinate points are J(-4,1), K(-4,-2) and L(-3,-1).

If a shape rotate 90 degree counterclockwise about the origin, then,

$(x,y)\rightarrow (-y,x)$

$J(-4,1)\rightarrow J'(-1,-4)$

$K(-4,-2)\rightarrow K'(2,-4)$

$L(-3,-1)\rightarrow L'(1,-3)$

Therefore, the vertex of imare are J'(-1,-4), K'(2,-4) and L'(1,-3). The graph is shown in figure (1).

(B)

If a figure reflect across the y-axis then,

$(x,y)\rightarrow (-x,y)$

$J(-4,1)\rightarrow J''(4,1)$

$K(-4,-2)\rightarrow K''(2,-4)$

$L(-3,-1)\rightarrow L''(3,-1)$

Therefore, the vertex of imare are J''(4,1), K''(2,-4) and L''(3,-1). The graph is shown in figure (2).

Eddi Din [679]

LW = 45
L + 2W = 19
L = 19-2W

substituting for L :-
W(19-2W) = 45

-2W^2 + 19W = 45

2W^2 - 19W + 45 = 0
W = 5 or 4.5

If W = 5, L = 9
If W = 4.5, L = 10

So there are 2 possible answers.
