Y=-7x-15
The formula to write the equation is
Y=mx+b
m=slope
m=-7
b=y intercept
b=-15
Answer:
15.
x = 40/9 = 4 4/9
z = 24/5 = 4 4/5
17.
x = 50
y ≈ 11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
15. Corresponding segments are proportional:
top right side / whole right side = x / 8
5/(5+4) = x/8
x = 8(5/9) = 40/9
x = 4 4/9
__
right side bottom / right side top = z / 6
z = 6(4/5) = 24/5
z = 4 4/5
____
17. The acute angles are complementary:
x = 90 -40 = 50
__
From the Pythagorean theorem:
y = √(15² -9.6²) = √132.84
y ≈ 11.5
Answer:
- multiplying a multi-digit number by itself several times (finding the power of a number)
- finding a square root
- statistical calculations
Step-by-step explanation:
We don't know what your introduction tells you, but the above-listed operations are ones I choose to use a calculator for. I also use a calculator for ordinary arithmetic, such as division by numbers with 2 digits or more. (It is simply faster and requires no scratch paper.)
If statistical calculations are not done with a calculator, they at least require the availability of suitable tables.
___
All of these operations can be done by hand without a calculator, and were in times passed. Lifetimes of effort were involved in generating some of the original math tables for statistics, trig, logarithms, and other functions readily evaluated using a modern calculator.
Answer:
1287
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of combinations of 13 diamonds taken 5 at a time is ...
13C5 = 13·12·11·10·9/(5·4·3·2·1) = 13·11·9 = 1287
