Answer: m1 = 0.5

M2= 0.375

M3 = 2.25

M4 = 3.0

M5 = 13.5

M6 = 0.285

M7 = 7.0

Step-by-step explanation:

(20,40)-(15,30)=(5,10), m1=5/10=0.5

(18,48)-(12,32)=(6,16), m2=3/8=0.375

(72,32)-(27,12)=(45,20), m3=9/4=2.25

(60,20)-(45,15)=(15,5), m4=3.0

(243,18)-(27,2)=(216,16), m5=27/2=13.5

(24,84)-(18,63)=(6,21), m6=2/7=0.285...

(84,12)-(63,9)=(21,3), m7=7.0

A science test, which is worth 100 points, consists of 24 questions. Each question is worth either 3 points or 5 points. If x is

mamaluj [8]

Answer: The test contains 10 three-point questions and 14 five-point questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of 3-point questions.

Let y represent the number of 5-point questions.

The maths test consists of 24 questions. This means that

x + y = 24

Each question is worth either 3 points or 5 and the test is worth 100 points. This means that

3x + 5y = 100 - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 24 - y into equation 1, it becomes

3(24 - y) + 5y = 100

72 - 3y + 5y = 100

- 3y + 5y = 100 - 72

2y = 28

y = 28/2 = 14

Substituting y = 14 into x = 24 - y , it becomes

x = 24 - 14 = 10

37. Three married couples have purchased tickets for a play. Spouses are to be seated next to each other, and the six seats are

Maurinko [17]

1st seat 6 possible for each 6 only 1 possible(spouse) for seat 2

3rd seat 4 possible for each 4 only 1 possible(spouse) for seat 4

5th seat 2 possible for each 2 only 1 possible(spouse) for seat 6

6 x 4 x 2 = 48

OR 3 couples possible arrangements 3 x 2 x1 = 6

each couple 2 possible 2 x 2 x 2 = 8

therefore 6 x 8 = 48

Work out the gradient of the line joining the points (2, 3) and (5,7)

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

The gradient of the line joining the points $P(x,y) = (2,3)$ and $Q(x,y) = (5,7)$ is $\frac{4}{3}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient of the line joining two distinct point on a plane is represented by the slope of a secant line ( $m_{PQ}$ ), that is:

$m_{PQ} = \frac{y_{Q}-y_{P}}{x_{Q}-x_{P}}$ (1)

If we know that $P(x,y) = (2,3)$ and $Q(x,y) = (5,7)$ , then the gradient of the line is:

$m_{PQ} = \frac{7-3}{5-2}$

$m_{PQ} = \frac{4}{3}$

The gradient of the line joining the points $P(x,y) = (2,3)$ and $Q(x,y) = (5,7)$ is $\frac{4}{3}$ .
