Answer:

<h2>The answer is 1</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line between two points can be found by using the formula

$m = \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1}$

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question is points are

(8, 1) and (-1, 10)

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the slope

That's

$m = \frac{10 - 1}{8 + 1} \\ = \frac{9}{9} = 1$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Rebecca collected data from a random sample of 1200 homeowners in her state asking whether or not they use electric heat. Based

larisa [96]

Hi,

The answer is c. The sample is biased.

This is because the sample is taken on a single state, an Rebecca reports a statistic about the nation. Her data contains information only of her state. If she lives in a very cold state, there is probably more homeowners using electric heat than in a hot state.

The length of a rectangle is 7 more than the width. The area is 744 sqaure yards, find the length and width of the rectangle

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Length of rectangle is 31 yards and Width is 24 yards.

Given:

The length of a rectangle is 7 more than the width.
The area is 744 sqaure yards

Solution:

Let's assume Width of rectangle be x and Length of rectangle be x + 7 respectively.

Using formula

$\\ \: \: \: \: \pink{ \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf { \underbrace{Area_{(Rectangle)} = Length × Width }}} \\ \\$

On Substituting the required values, we get;

$\\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf (x)(x + 7) = 744 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf {x}^{2} + 7x = 744 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf {x}^{2} + 7x - 744 = 0 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf {x}^{2} + 31x - 24x - 744 = 0 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf x(x + 31) - 24 (x + 31) = 0 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf (x + 31)(x - 24) = 0 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf x = 24 \: or \: - 31 \\ \\$

As we know that width of the rectangle can't be negative. So x = 24

<u>Hence</u>,

Width of rectangle = x = 24 yards
Length of the rectangle = x + 7 = 31 yards

$\therefore$ Length of rectangle is 31 yards<u> </u>and Width is 24 yards.
