Answer:

The point w is located at -4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Point z is halfway between point w and x

Point x is halfway between point z and y

Point z is located at 1/3 and point y is located at 11/3

Please refer to the number line attached

Then the x is located at the mid-point of z and y

x = \frac{z+y}{2} \\\\x = \frac{\frac{1}{3}+ \frac{11}{3} }{2}

x = 2

Since z is the mid-point of w and x

z = \frac{w+ x }{2}\\\\\frac{1}{3}  = \frac{w+ 2 }{2}\\\\\frac{2}{3}  = w+ 2 \\\\w = \frac{2}{3} - 2\\\\w = -\frac{4}{3}

Therefore, the point w is located at -4/3

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

Hello! remember you have to write complete questions in order to get good and exact answers. Here I'll explain this in a general way assuming the following table:

\begin{array}{cc}x & y\\0 & 0\\1 & 2\\2 & 4\\3 & 6\\4 & 8\\5 & 10\end{array}

As you can see, x increases in steps of 1 units. So let's check the difference in y:

\bullet \ \text{From x=0 to x=1} \\ \\ \Delta y=2-0=2 \\ \\ \\ \bullet \ \text{From x=1 to x=2} \\ \\ \Delta y=4-2=2 \\ \\ \\ \bullet \ \text{From x=2 to x=3} \\ \\ \Delta y=6-4=2 \\ \\ \\ \bullet \ \text{From x=3 to x=4} \\ \\ \Delta y=8-6=2 \\ \\ \\ \bullet \ \text{From x=4 to x=5} \\ \\ \Delta y=10-8=2

So we have a constant difference and we can conclude the table represents a line. Since the line passes through then y is directly proportional to x, so we can write:

y=kx \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ k \ is \ constant \ of \ proportionality \ or \ the \ slope

Then:

k=\frac{2-0}{1-0}=2

Finally, the equation of the line is:

\boxed{y=2x}

How do stem leaf charts work
Lyrx [107]

Answer & Explanation:

A stem and leaf plot is used to organize data as they are collected. A stem and leaf plot looks something like a bar graph. Each number in the data is broken down into a stem and a leaf, thus the name. The stem of the number includes all but the last digit.
