Here's an example...
So, in our last example...
In the point ( -2, -1 ), x1 = -2 and y1 = -1 ... and, in the point ( 4, 3 ), x2 = 3 and y2 = 3
m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 ) = ( 3 - ( -1 ) ) / ( 4 - ( -2 ) ) = 4 / 6 = 2 / 3
But, notice something cool...
The order of the points doesn't matter! Let's switch them and see what we get:
In the point ( 4, 3 ), x1 = 4 and y1 = 3 ... and, in the point ( -2, -1 ), x2 = -2 and y2 = -1
m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 ) = ( -1 - 3 ) / ( -2 - 4 ) = -4 / -6 = 2 / 3 ... Same thing!
Let's try our new formula with the second example in the last lesson:
It was a line passing through
( -1, 4 ) and ( 2, -2 )
m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 ) = ( -2 - 4 ) / ( 2 - ( -1 ) ) = -6 / 3 = -2
I will have to assume that you actually meant " e^(ln 7x). The exponential and logarithmic functions are inverses of each other, so d^(ln 7x) = 7x (answer C).
Answer:
8 / 15
Step-by-step explanation:
By Pythagoras theorem,
OP² + PQ² = OQ²
OP² + 8² = 17²
OP² = 17² - 8²
= 289- 64
OP² = 225
OP² = 15²
OP = 15
Formula : -
Tan θ = Opposite side / Adjacent side
Here,
θ = Q
Opposite side = PQ = 8
Adjacent side = OP = 15
Tan Q = 8 / 15
Let x represent the number of hamburgers sold, and (x - 55) represent the number of cheeseburgers sold.
Set up an equation:
hamburgers + cheeseburgers = total number of burgers
x + (x-55) = 445
solve for x:
2x - 55 = 445
2x = 445 + 55
2x = 500
x = 500÷2
x = 250
This means 250 hamburgers were sold on Tuesday.
Hope this helps!
