Answer:
(x, y) = (5, -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The Desmos graphing calculator is a handy tool for solving questions like this one. It tells you the solution is ...
(x, y) = (5, -4)
<h2>Hello!</h2>
The answer is:
The correct option is the first option:
To write the equation of the line in slope-interception form we need to extract all the information that we need from the graphic.
We must remember that the slope-interception form of the lines is:
Where,
y, is the function
m, is the slope of the line
x, is the variable
b, is the y-axis intercept
We can find the slope using the following formula:
Which is for this case:
As we can see from the graphic, the line is decresing, so the sign of the slope "m" will be negative, so:
We can find the value of "b" seeing where the line intercepts the y-axis.
As we can see it intercept the y-axis at:
Then, now that we already know the value of "m" and "b", we can write the equation of the line:
So, the correct option is the first option:
Have a nice day!
First of all, note that all integers are either 0,1, or 2 modulo 3 (if you're not familiar with this terminology, it means that every integer is either a multiple of 3, or it is 1 or 2 away from a multiple of 3).
So, we can think of our numbers as
In order to make sure that the sum of any three adjacent numbers is divisible by 3, we have to make sure that any group of 3 three adjacent numbers contains a 0, a 1 and a 2. This is possible only if we arrange our 9 numbers in 3 groups of 3 numbers containing 0,1 and 2 exactly once, repeating always the same pattern.
For example, we could arrange our numbers following the pattern
or
We have possible patterns. Suppose for example that we choose the pattern
One possible way of following this pattern would be the arrangement
In fact, we substituted every '0' with a multiple of 3 (3, 6 or 9), every '1' with a number 1 away from a multiple of 3 (1, 4 or 7) and every '2' with a number 2 away from a multiple of 3 (2, 5 or 8).
This means that, once we fix a patter, we have 3 choices for the first 3 slots, 2 choices for the next 3 slots, and the final slot will be fixed. So, we have
possible ways of following a fixed pattern. Since the number of patterns was 6, we have
possible arrangements.
