I believe the answer is C.
Using Pythagorean Theorem, 25+64=sq root of 89.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given two points: (4, -8) and (8, 5)
General equation of a line: y = mx + c
First find m (the gradient). There is a formula for this: (change in y)/(change in x) = gradient
(5 - -8) / (8 - 4) = (13) / (4) = 3.25 = m
y = 3.25x + c
Now we need to find c (the y-intercept; the value of y when x=0).
Substitute in any one of the coordinates - let's use (8, 5)
(5) = 3.25(8) + c
(5) = 26 + c
c = -21
The equation of the line: y = 3.25x - 21
I think that this answer is correct - sorry if it seems rushed.
Hope this answer helps :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Show that if 3x – 7 = 5, then x = 4.
Here, our given statement is 3x – 7 = 5, and we're asked to prove x = 4.
x=4
Statements Reasons
1. 3x – 7 = 5 Given
2. 3x – 7 + 7 = 5 + 7 Addition of 7 to equation (1)
3. 3x + 0 = 5 + 7 Substitution of –7 + 7 = 0 into (2)
4. 3x = 5 + 7 Substitution of 3x + 0 = 3x into (3)
5. 3x = 12 Substitution of 5 + 7 = 12 into (4)
6. 3x⁄3 = 12⁄3 Dividing equation (5) by 3
7. x = 12⁄3 Substitution of 3x⁄3 = x into (6)
8. x = 4 Substitution of 12⁄3 = 4 into (7)
Is there such a thing as being too descriptive? Yep, and that was it, since over half the proof was devoted to telling the reader how to do arithmetic. We'll typically take numerical computation for granted, and write proofs like this:
To determine the probability that one or the other circumstances will occur, you will count the number of possible outcomes and divide it by all the possible outcomes.
#of female teaching assistants + # of male teaching assistants + # of female professors
6 + 16 + 11 = 33
Total = 41
33/41 = 80
There is a approximate 80% probability that one or the other will occur.
