What is the slope of (1,3) and (2,1)

1 answer:

4 0

Ax+b=y

put the both values the left one is x and the right one is y

(1,3)=> a+b=3
(2,1)=> 2a+b=1

subtract both of the equations you will get -a=2
so a=-2 and put a in any of the equation you will get b is 5 so the equation is -2x+5=y

the slope is the x’s number so it’s -2

Answer:

d. The slope of the relationship between firstfloorsquarefootage and price is moresteep for homes near the beach than elsewhere in Tampa.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this regression model, we have a positive slope. This positive slope is indicative of an increase. So to interpret this slope, we would say that the slope of the relationship that exists between the two variables (price and firstfloorsquarefootage) is steeper for the homes that are closer to the beach compared to the ones that are elsewhere. Therefore option D is our answer.

The ratio of the width to the length of a painting is 3 to 7. If the painting is 42 in. long how wide is it

belka [17]

If length is 42 inches, then width is 18 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given ratio of width to the length of a painting i.e 3 to 7. If the painting is 42 inches long, then how wide it is?

Solving:

$\frac{width}{length}=\frac{width}{length}\\ \frac{3}{7}=\frac{w}{42}\\ Cross\,\,multiply:\\3*42=w*7\\126=w*7\\w=\frac{126}{7}\\w=18$

So, If length is 42 inches, then width is 18 inches.
