In y = mx + b form, the slope can be found in the m position and the y intercept can be found in the b position.
y = mx + b
y = 2x + 15
slope(m) = 2 and y int (b) = 15
The initial amount is the y intercept, which is 15. The rate of change (the slope) is 2
example :
baskets picked in 1 hr :
y = 2(1) + 15
y = 2 + 15
y = 17
baskets picked in 2 hrs :
y = 2(2) + 15
y = 4 + 15
y = 19
so the slope ( rate of change) is basically saying for every hr of picking, you pick 2 baskets...so your picking 2 baskets per hr.
The y intercept (15) is telling us that they already had 15 baskets to start with.
Answer:
b) It is a binomial with a degree of 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find about which is true about the polynomial –8m3 + 11m from the given choices.
There are two terms so it is binomial.
Highest exponent on variable m is 3 so degree is 3.
Correct matching choice is "It is a binomial with a degree of 3."
Hence final answer is choice "b) It is a binomial with a degree of 3."
Answer: -3.3%
By not knowing how i did it, means you will still not know how to do it next time you encounter a similar problem.
Knowing how to solve a problem is just as important or even more important than just knowing the solution.
Answer: " n = - 4 " .
<u>__________</u>
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
<u>Given</u>:
-n + 8 = 12 ; solve for "n" ;
Subtract "8" from each side of the equation:
-n + 8 - 8 = 12 - 8 ;
to get:
-n = 4 ;
Which is the same as:
-1n = 4 ;
Divide each side of the equation by "-1" ; to isolate "n" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "n" :
-1n / -1 = 4 / -1 ;
to get:
" n = - 4 " ; which is our answer.
_______________
Now, let's check our answer:
_______________
→ by plugging in our value obtained for "n" ; which is " - 4 " ;
_______________
-(-4) + 8 ≟ 12 ?? ;
_______________
From the "left-hand sign" of the equation:
_______________
" - (-4) = ⁺ 4 " ;
_______________
<u>Note</u>: The opposite of negative value; or the negative of a negative value; is equal to that very positive value.
_______________
⇒ " 4 + 8 ≟ 12 ? ;
⇒ " 12 ≟ 12 ? ; Yes!
_______________
The correct answer is: " n = - 4 " .
