Answer:
a. 20 points
Step-by-step explanation:
Range = Largest given value - Smallest given value.
<u>Identifying the range of test 1</u>
Looking at the dot plot the lowest test grade appears to be 50 while the highest is 90.
So range of test 1 = 90 - 50 = 40
<u>Identifying the range of test 2</u>
Looking at the plot the lowest test grade appears to be 40 while the highest appears to be 100
So range = 100 - 40 = 60
<u>Identifying the differences between the ranges</u>
Test 1 range : 40
Test 2 range : 60
Difference between the two : 60 - 40 = 20 points
8x-2+9-6x=0
2x+7=0
2x=-7
x=-3.5
Answer: Option d.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The parent function of an absolute value function is shown below:
f(x)=|x| (This is the simplest form). Because from this function we can make transformations that allow us to obtain the function f(x) = 4|x| -3
2. If you take the parent function and make y= f(x)-3/4, then you have:
y= f(x)-3/4=|x|-3/4 (The function is shifted down 3/4 units on the y-axis).
3. Then you if you make y= 4(f(x)-3/4), as following, you obtain:
y = 4(f(x)-3/4))=4|x|-3 (The function is reflected in the y-axis).
4. That is how you obtain the final function. 
Answer:
<h3>y=-3x+15</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute values into point slope form

Answer:
y = 1/2x -.5
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that is the line is parallel to the equation then the slopes are going to be the same we just have to find the a different y-intercept.
It's a simple as this just plug the points into the equation you have like this.
(-7,-4) (PLUG IN)
-4 = 1/2(-7) +b (I do plus be so we can get another y intercept)
-4 = -3.5 + b (add 3.5 on each side)
-.5 = b
the equation parallel to the first one is...
y = 1/2x -.5
