Answer:
The slope is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula: y2-y1/x2-x1= 11-5/7-4 = 6/3=2
4. Let the numbers be x - 2, x, and x + 2, where x is an odd number.
2(x² - 4) - 4x = (x + 2)² + 21
2x² - 8 - 4x = x² + 4x + 4 + 21
2x² - 4x - 8 = x² + 4x + 25
x² - 8x - 33 = 0
(x - 11)(x + 3) = 0
x = 11, or -3
When x = 11, x - 2 = 9, x + 2 = 13
When x = -3, x - 2 = -5, x + 2 = -1
Explanation: You are on the right track. However, rather than having three unknown variables, try to reduce your working out to one unknown variable. Since you know they are consecutive odd numbers, you can simply let x be the middle term and the other two be + and - 2, provided x is an odd number.
That will reduce your variable issues, and helps as the first and third provide a difference of two squares, and this works out very nicely.
Q5: is essentially the same process. Let your variables be something in the form of one unknown variable, and you should be okay from there. Let me know if you're stuck.
Answer:
75
Step-by-step explanation:
35% off means that now it costs 100%-35%=65% of the original price
<span>£78 ---- 65%
x------100%
x=78*100/65=120</span>£<span>
or
part/whole=0.65
78/whole=0.65
whole =78/0.65 =120 </span>£
What is the mean of -3, 4, 8, -1, -4, -2, 0, 2, 5, 2, -3, 1

Answer:
3/4 or .75
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean means the average so you would add up all the numbers then divide by how many numbers there are
-3+4+8+-1+-4+-2+0+2+5+2+-3+1= 9
9/12= 3/4 or .75
depends whether or not you want it in fraction or decimal form
