The answer to this question is (9,13). Here's how:
First thing you need to do is find the equation. You have a coordinate point and the slope. Remember a linear equation or formula is y=mx+b (m= slope and b= y-intercept)

So let's input the slope into the equation:
y=1/2x+b or y=0.5x+b
Notice how there is no b yet? That's because you need to find it. Good thing you have the coordinate points, so replace x and y with it. ( (x,y) = ( -7, 5) )

5=0.5(-7)+b
5= -3.5+b
+3.5 +3.5
b= 8.5
The equation is now y=0.5x+8.5 and with that equation you can now input it in a calculator to find which of the following coordinate points lies on. Or you can just input those points into the calculator. Which I did because I love to show my work. I have a picture of the work included and I really do hope I helped you. If not, message me. I'll be glad you to help you!

zaharov [31]

Answer:

She can determine that while there is an association between the variables, there is no correlation, and she cannot determine causation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is an arch shape to her graph, we know that as one variable changes, the other changes in the same manner. This means there is an association between the variables.

However, since the graph is not linear, there is no correlation between the variables. Since there is no correlation, we cannot determine causation.

Answer:

Part (A) The required volume of the column is $s^2h$ .

Part (B) The volume be $s^2h=\frac{s^2h}{2}+\frac{s^2h}{2}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that the we have a square with side length "s" lies in a plane perpendicular to a line L.

Also One vertex of the square lies on L.

Part (A)

Suppose there is a square piece of a paper which is attached with a wire through one corner. As you blow it up it spins around on the wire.

This square moves a distance h along L, and generate a corkscrew-like column with square.

The cross section will remain the same.

So the cross section area of original column and the cross section area of twisted column at each point will be the same.

The volume of the column is the area of square times the height.

This can be written as:

$s^2h$

Hence, the required volume of the column is $s^2h$ .

Part (B) What will the volume be if the square turns twice instead of once?

If the square turns twice instead of once then the volume will remains the same but divide the volume into two equal part.

$s^2h=\frac{s^2h}{2}+\frac{s^2h}{2}$

Hence, the volume be $s^2h=\frac{s^2h}{2}+\frac{s^2h}{2}$ .

When I square my number, I get the same answer as when I multiply my number by 10 and then add 144. My number is positive. What

exis [7]

Answer:

your number is 18

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = (x × 10 ) + 144

x^2 = 10x + 144

x^2 - 10x - 144 = 0

using quadratic method

your answer should be

(x- 18) ( x+8 )
