Answer:

Slope = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Reading your description carefully, the equation of line has been given to be

When we compare this with the standard form of a straight line

We immediately see that the slope or gradient m = 6.

Alternatively, when we consider the coordinates of the points mentioned, we have

(1, 5) ; (0, -1) ; (-1, -7)

We can take any two points out of these three and calculate the slope using the formula

For example, let us consider the points (1, 5) and (-1, -7)

Here x₁ = 1; x₂ = -1 and y₁ = 5; y₂ = -7

Plugging the numbers in the above formula, we have

This agrees with what we calculated directly from the equation of the line!

Hence, slope of the line on the graph = 6

Suppose we want to choose 2 colors, without replacement from 3 colors red blue and green how many ways can this be done in the o

andre [41]

The two colors can be chosen in 3 different ways.

<h3>In how many ways can we choose two colors?</h3>

If we have a set of N elements, the number of different sets of K elements (such that the order of the K elements does not matter) is:

$C(N, K) = \frac{N!}{(N - K)!*K!}$

In this case, we have 3 colors, so N=3, and we want to choose 2, then K=2.

Replacing that we get:

$C(3, 2) = \frac{3!}{(3- 2)!*2!} = \frac{3*2*1}{1*2*1} = 3$

The two colors can be chosen in 3 different ways.

Nick has $7.00. Bagels cost $0.75 each.

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer: 0.75x + 1.29y ≤ 7.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of bagels be x

Let the number of containers of cream cheese be y

Nick can only spend less than or equal to $7

0.75x + 1.29y ≤ 7.00
