Slope = (-5 - (-3))/(3 - 1) = -2/2 = -1
Yes it's correct.I had doubt in 14.
Answer:
So the question is asking you to write an expression which can be defined as a mathematical equation that contains two numbers (usually a <u>variable</u> represented by a letter from the english alphabet and a <u>constant</u> like 1, 2, 15, 73, or 10) and at the very least, one operation. So we are instructed to write an expression WITH an exponent. Examples of exponents would be squaring or cubing a number: 2² or 5³
With this kind of problem its more of a guess and check to try and see which numbers would make the equation true/equal to 24.
Here is an example of what I would put down:
24 = 3x³
24/3 = x³
8 = x³
2 x 2 x 2 = x³
2 = x
Check by plugging our x-value in:
24 = 3 x 2³
24 = 3(8)
24 = 24
145 will work. It is an odd number and is greater than 142 and is less than 156
142 < 145 < 156
Other numbers such as 143, 147, 149,151,153, 155 will work.
You could use 16 large bags, and 2 small bags. Every large bag carries 9 apples. 9x16=144. That leaves 12 apples left. Small bags carry 6 apples. 6x2=12. I think this might be the right answer, hope this helps.
