Answer:

1. \frac{24-79}{12-2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a graph of a scatter-plot and we are asked to find the correct expression than can be solved to find the slope of the trend line in the scatter-plot.

Since we know that slope of a line can be found by dividing the difference of the y-coordinates of 2 points on a line by difference of the x-coordinates of these same points.  

\text{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}  

We can see that (2,79) and (12,24) are two given points of our trend line. So let us substitute x and y-coordinates of our given points in slope formula to find the our desired expression.    

x_1=2

x_2=12

y_1=79

y_2=24

\text{Slope}=\frac{24-79}{12-2}

Therefore, the expression \text{Slope}=\frac{24-79}{12-2} can be solved to find the slope of the trend line in the scatter-plot and 1st option is the correct choice.

You use the slope formula to do


(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)


In the options you have, y1 is equal to 24 and y2 is equal to 79 so x1 has to be 12 and x2 has to be 2


So we have the answer being


(24-79)/(12-2).


The first option

What is the greatest common factor of 32 and 48
Bond [772]
Turn each number into the product of it's prime factors.

32=16x2=2x2x2x2x2=2^5

48=24*2=6x4x2=2x3x2x2x2

Pick the highest number that occurs. In this case it is 2. Now we have to see how many times it appears in both. It appears 5 times in 32 and 4 times in 48. 4 is the highest number of times it appears in the numbers so:

2^4=2x2x2x2=16

The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 32 and 48 is 16.

In a cave, a stalactite gets 44 millimeters longer each year. this year it is 72 centimeters long. how many years until it is 1
iragen [17]

Answer:

6.36 years (the .36 repeats), so rounded is 6.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I'm going to convert all measurements to meters.

Since 1000 mm = 1 m, divide 44 by 1000.

44/1000 = 0.044 m

Since 100 cm = 1 m, divide 72 by 100.

72/100 = 0.72 m

Next, I'm going to setup an equation using y = mx + b.

b is the beginning amount which is 0.72.

m in the equation represents the rate which is 0.044.

y represents the total which is 1.

Plugin the numbers and solve for x.

1 = 0.044x + 0.72

1 - 0.72 = 0.044x + 0.72 - 0.72

0.28 = 0.044x

0.28/0.044 = 0.044x/0.044

6.36 = x

KatRina [158]

Answer:

91.4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question:

1 yard = 0.914 meter

100 yards = x meters

x meter = 100 × 0.914 meters

x = 91.4 meters

Therefore, Nicholas sprinted 91.4 meters
