17.5 % is bigger than 1/6 since
17.5 % = 0.175 and 1/6 = 0.166666666666666

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (−3, −5) and (−1, −6)?

Virty [35]

Answer:

The slope of the line passing through the points (−3, −5) and (−1, −6) is $-\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }$ (-0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a straight line:

y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

(x1, x2) and (y1, y2) : (−3, −5) and (−1, −6)

Calculating Slope (m).

m = $\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$

m = $\frac{ (-6) - (-5) }{ (-1) - (-3) }$

m = $\frac{ -6 + 5 }{ -1 + 3 }$

m = $-\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }$

we can take this a step further by finding the equation:

Now putting value of m in equation (i)

y = -0.5x + b

Calculating Y-intercept (b).

Lets choose the first point, (-3,-5) for calculating y-intercept:

y = mx + b

-5 = -0.5(-3) + b

-5 = 1.5 + b

-6.5 = b

b = -6.5

Now putting value of b in equation

y = -0.5x + -6.5

Which statement is true? Question 1 options: A) – |–13| = 13 B) – |13| = 13 C) |–13| = 13 D) |13| = – 13

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

The answer is C. |-13| = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The definition of absolute value is:

$\displaystyle \large{ |x| = \begin{cases} x \: \: (x \geqslant 0) \\ - x \: \: (x < 0) \end{cases}}$

To say it simply, any real numbers in absolute sign, when evaluated, they will always be positive.

No matter the positive real numbers or negative real numbers - if these numbers are in absolute sign, they will be evaluated to positive.

Examples

$\displaystyle \large{ |2| = 2} \\ \displaystyle \large{ | - 2| = 2} \\ \displaystyle \large{ | - 8| = 8}$

But if the negative is not inside the absolute sign.

Examples II

$\displaystyle \large{ - |2| = - 2} \\ \displaystyle \large{ - | - 2| = - 2} \\ \displaystyle \large{ - | - 8| = - 8}$

First, we evalute the absolute value first. We know thay any real numbers in absolute sign will become positive. Next, after evaluating the absolute value, we simply add the negative symbol beside the positive number.

Simplified Definition

This one is to make it simple to remember.

$\displaystyle \large{ |a| = a} \\ \displaystyle \large{ | - a| = a} \\ \displaystyle \large{ - |a| = - a} \\ \displaystyle \large{ - | - a| = - a}$

After reading the explanation, see the choices and tell if they are true or not.

The A choice is wrong as we know that -|-13| is -13.

The B choice is wrong, the reason is same as the A choice.

The C choice is correct! Any real numbers in absolute sign are always positive.

The D choice is wrong because absolute-value numbers cannot be negative, refer to the C choice's reason.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Pleaseee I needed the answerrr now

Bad White [126]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution,

principle=4500
Time=3 years
Rate of interest=5%
Simple Interest=?

Simple Interest=

$\frac{ptr}{100} \\ \frac{4500 \times 3 \times 5}{100} \\ 675$

Hence, the simple Interest is 675.
