First of all we can rule out that the slope is 10. The coefficient before the x term is not 10 so the answer is not a.
Following on what I said for option a, option b is correct as the coefficient before the x term is -7/8. Therefore the answer is B.
The answer is not C as when x = 0, y is not 0. This means the line does not pass through the origin (0,0)
Option D is not true aswell. When x = 1, y= 9.125. When x= 2, y= 8.25. When x=3, y= 7.375. X is increasing whereas y is decreasing. Therefore option D is ruled out.
The answer is option B.
I hope this has helped you.
Please mark as brainliest if you are happy with this explanation. Have a great day!
44/77 = 4/7 because its divided by 11. 4x11 is 44 and 4x7 is 77. Hope it helps!
There are 7 math books, 9 science books and 5 literature books. Student has to select 2 books from each set.
This is a combination problem.
Number of ways to select 2 math books from 7 books = 7C2 = 21
Number of ways to select 2 science books from 9 books = 9C2 = 36
Number of ways to select 2 literature books from 5 books = 5C2 = 10
Total number of ways to select 2 books from each set = 21 x 36 x 10 = 7560 ways.
So there are 7560 ways to select 2 books from each set of seven math books, nine science books, and five literature books
