The slope of a line usually determines id the line is negative or positive. For example, lines going uphill, or uphill slopes, are positive slopes. The slope will be a positive number such as, yet not limited to, 5, 10, or 57. Or you can also take their counter parts for example, downhill slopes would be considered negative slopes, meaning they go below zero, instead of above, like positive slopes. Hope this helps. :D
Start the graph at the <em>y</em>-intercept. At 0 hours, he will make $0, so (0, 0) is the <em>y</em>-intercept. From this point, he makes $8.10 an hour; go up 8.1 for every 1 hour you go over on the graph. The graph is attached.
Answer: x = 6.56
Step-by-step explanation: -0.4x - 0.5 + x = 3.63
-0.4x^2 - 0.5 = 3.63
-0.4x^2 = 4.13
0.63x = 4.13
x = 6.56
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The expression in radical form is given as:

We need to express this in fractional exponent form.
We know that,

Also, 
Now, clubbing both the properties of square root function, we can rewrite the given expression as:

So, the given expression in fractional exponents form is
.
Answer:
MK
Step-by-step explanation:
ML is the short side of right triangle MLK. MJ is the hypotenuse of right triangle MKJ. This gives you a clue that the ratios of interest are the short side to the hypotenuse. All these right triangles are similar, so ...
ML/MK = MK/MJ . . . . . ratio of short side to hypotenuse is the same
ML·MJ = MK² . . . . . . . cross multiply
MK = √(ML·MJ) . . . . . the geometric mean of ML and MJ is MK
