Answer: The slope is 3 and the y-intercept is 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a linear function can be calculated as:

s = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Where y2 = f(x2) and y1 = f(x1) and f(x) is the linear function.

So here we can use any two pairs of the set of data, for example, the first two.

(-1 , -3/2) and (-1/2,0)

s = (0 -(-3/2))/(-1/2 - (-1)) = (3/2)/(1/2) =(3/2)*(2/1) = 3

So the slope is equal to 3.

the y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0, in the table we can see that when x = 0. the value of y = 3/2

So the function is: y = 3*x + 3/2

and the correct option is the fourth one.

If the coordinates of the endpoints of a diameter of the circle are known, the equation of a circle can be found. First, find

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

The equation of the circle is $(x+3)^2+(y-5)^2 = 17$

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

If the coordinates of the endpoints of a diameter of the circle are known, the equation of a circle can be found. First, find the midpoint of the diameter, which is the center of the circle. Then find the radius, which is the distance from the center to either endpoint of the diameter. Finally use the center-radius form to find the equation.

Find the center-radius form of the circle having the points (1,4) and (-7,6) as the endpoints of a diameter.

Consider that, if both points are the endpoints of a diameter, the center of the circle is the point that is exactly in the middle of the two points (that is, the point whose distance to each point is equal). Given points (a,b) and (c,d), by using the distance formula, you can check that the middle point is the average of the coordinates. Hence, the center of the circle is given by

$(\frac{1-7}{2}, \frac{4+6}{2}) = (-3,5)$ .

We will find the radius. Recall that the radius of the circle is the distance from one point of the circle to the center. Recall that the distance between points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by $\sqrt[]{(a-c)^2+(b-d)^2}$ . So, let us use (1,4) to calculate the radius.

$r = \sqrt[]{(1-(-3))^2+(4-5)^2} = \sqrt[]{17}$ .

REcall that given a point $(x_0,y_0)$ . The equation of a circle centered at the point $(x_0,y_0)$ is

$(x-x_0)^2+(y-y_0)^2 = r^2$

In our case, $(x_0,y_0)=(-3,5)$ and $r=\sqrt[]{17}$ . Then, the equation is

$(x-(-3))^2+(y-5)^2 = (x+3)^2+(y-5)^2 = 17$

at the beginning of the day stock cuz opened at $7.25 at the end of the day it closed at $6.88 what is the rate change of stock

Vsevolod [243]

The absolute change is the difference: 6.88 - 7.25 = -0.37

The rate of change is that divided by the originalprice x 100

Ratre of change: (-0.37/7.25 )*100 = -4.93%
