Slope, m= $\frac{change in y}{change in x}$
slope, m= $\frac{1--6}{8-8}$
m= infinite

Answer: d. undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slope of a line passing through two points X(a,b) and Y(c,d) is given by :-

$m=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}$

The given points : g(8,1) & h(8,-6)

Then , the slope of a line passing through two points g(8,1) & h(8,-6) is given by :-

$m=\dfrac{-6-1}{8-8}=\dfrac{-7}{0}=\infty$

Hence, the slope of the line that contains the points g(8,1) & h(8,-6) is undefined.

Your friend, Susannah, manages a sandwich shop. She collects data on the number of turkey sandwiches sold per day for a week. Ex

ExtremeBDS [4]

Susannah's data are illustration of measure of central tendencies

(a) The mean

To calculate the mean, she needs to divide the total number of turkey sandwiches sold, by the number of days.

The total is:

$\mathbf{Total = 73 +88+85+88+99+134+129}$

$\mathbf{Total = 696}$

The number of days is:

$\mathbf{Day = 7}$

So, the mean is:

$\mathbf{Mean =\frac{Total}{Days}}$

$\mathbf{Mean =\frac{696}{7}}$

$\mathbf{Mean =99.4}$

Hence, the mean number of turkey sandwiches sold is 99.4

(b) The median

To calculate the median, she needs to arrange the data in ascending or descending order, then select the middle item.

In ascending order, we have: 73, 85, 88, 88, 99, 129, 134

The middle item is 88

So:

$\mathbf{Median = 88}$

Hence, the median number of turkey sandwiches sold is 88

(c) The mode

This is the data that occurs most.

From the dataset, 88 appears twice (more than others).

So:

$\mathbf{Mode = 88}$

Hence, the mode number of turkey sandwiches sold is 88

(d) The range

This is the difference between the highest and least data

From the dataset,

The highest is 134, and the least is 73

So:

$\mathbf{Range =134 - 73}$

$\mathbf{Range =61}$

Hence, the range of turkey sandwiches sold is 61

The measure that would be most helpful is the median, because it is not affected by outliers.

Find g (a + 1 ), if g(x)=5x-3

nordsb [41]

Answer:

g(a+1)=5a+2

Step-by-step explanation:

so (a+1) is the value of x

you can write it like this:

x=a+1

using substitution, we can swap out all 'x's for 'a+1's. like so;

g(a+1)=5(a+1)-3 -- given

=5a+5-3 -- distribute

=5a+2 -- simplify!

Hope i helped! have a great day! please mark brainliest!!
