The answer is B. were realistic with their math skills because Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) provides genuine and updated statistics on mathematics and science performance of U.S. students and also they assess advance mathematics and physics performance of last year of secondary schools over the countries.

What is the slope of the line of (1,0) and (-1,-3)
Alinara [238K]

Slope formula: m = \frac{(y2-y1)}{(x2-x1)} (Knowing that m represents the slope)

Substitute (1,0) for (x1,y1), and (-1,-3) for (x2,y2)

Slope of the line of (1,0) and (-1,-3) is:

m = \frac{(-3-0)}{(-1-1)} = \frac{-3}{-2} = \frac{3}{2}  

(Simplify)

Slope of the line of (1,0) and (-1,-3) is \frac{3}{2}

Determine the number and types of solutions for<br><br> 6m^2-3m-4=0
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

2 real solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember this messy thing?

x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

The <em>quadratic formula</em>, as it's called, gives us the roots to any quadratic equation in standard form (ax² + bx + c = 0). The information on the <em>type</em> of roots is contained entirely in that bit under the square root symbol (b² - 4ac), called the <em>discriminant</em>. If it's non-negative, we'll have <em>real</em> roots, if it's negative, we'll have <em>complex roots</em>.

For our equation, we have a discrimant of (-3)² - 4(6)(-4) = 9 + 96 = 105, which is non-negative, so we'll have real solutions, and since quadratics are degree 2, we'll have exactly 2 real solutions.

A 2x2 square is centered on the origin. It is dilated by a factor of 3. What are the coordinated of the vertices of the square?
Alexxx [7]

<u>Answer</u>:

The vertices are:

A' = (-3, -3)

B' = (3, -3)

C' = (3, 3)

D' = (-3, 3)

The ratio of area of  larger square to smaller square is 9:1

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given:

A 2 x 2 square is centered at the origin.

So, the center of the square is (0, 0)

Since it is 2 x 2 square, the side of the square is 2 units.

So, the vertices of the 2 x 2 square are A (-1, -1),  B(1, -1), C(1. 1), D(-1, 1)

The above square is dilated by a factor of 3.

Let's name the dilated square A'B'C'D'

To find the coordinates of the vertices of dilated square, we need to multiply each vertices of ABCD by 3.

A(-1, -1) = 3(-1, -1) = A'(-3, -3)

B(1, -1) = 3(1, -1) = B'(3, -3)

C(1, 1) = 3(1, 1) = C'(3, 3)

D(-1, 1) = 3(-1, 1) = D'(-3, 3)

To find the area of the small square

the side  of the small square is 2 units

so the are of the small square is 2^2 = 4 square units

To find the area of the larger square

lets find the side AB of the square using distance formula

=>\sqrt{(x_2 -x_1)^2 +(y_2-y_1)^2}

=>\sqrt{(3 - (-3))^2 +(-3 - (-3))^2}

=>\sqrt{(3 +3)^2 +(-3 +3)^2}

=>\sqrt{(6)^2 +(0)^2}

=>\sqrt{36}

=>6

AB =6 units

In a square all the sides will be equal

Now the area of the larger square will be

6^2

36 square units

The ratio of larger square to smaller square is

=>36 : 4

=>9 : 1
