Answer:
"a" must be negative
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope between points (-1, 1) and (1, -1) is a minimum of (-1-1)/(1-(-1)) = -1.
The slope between points (1, -1 and (3, -4) is a maximum of (-4-(-1))/(3-1) = -3/2.
Thus, as x increases, the slope is decreasing. In order for that to be the case, the value of <em>a</em> must satisfy a < 0.
Please refer to the other post you saw.
Josh's estimate IS reasonable because when you have a number 5 or above after the decimal, you round up. Although it's reasonable to round up to 5 pounds, the actual amount is 4.5 pounds, or four and a half.
0 right? It's not changing at all.
70% of 100 is 70.70x5=350. 350 is your answer

Answer: Comelia is correct</h3>
====================================================
Explanation:
We're told that "Christopher says that all Rational (Q) numbers are Whole (W)", which makes Christopher not correct. Some rational numbers are whole numbers. For instance, the number 7 = 7/1 is rational and it's a whole number as well.
However something like 1/2 is rational, but it's not a whole number. A whole number doesn't have any fractional or decimal part to it. It can be thought of the number of something.
Comelia is correct because all whole numbers are rational. If x is some whole number, then x = x/1 is rational as well. Replace x with any whole number you want. Her statement does not work in reverse as shown above.
When drawing a Venn diagram, the circle for "whole numbers" will be entirely inside the circle for "rational numbers", and not the other way around.
