Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

   = (-3-3)/(4-1)

  =-6/3

  = -2

Then we can use point slope form to make the equation

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-3 = -2(x-1)

Distribute

y-3 = -2x+2

Add 3 to each side

y-3+3 = -2x+2+3

y = -2x+5

Since this is in slope intercept form, y = mx +b, the y intercept is 5

A study conducted on 40,000 words in the English language found that about 6,670 words started with the letter T, which is the m
melisa1 [442]

To answer this problem, first let us calculate for the theoretical probability obtained from the study conducted:

Theoretical Probability = 6,670 / 40,000

Theoretical Probability = 0.16675 = 0.17

From the given choices, the list of words which can give this similar amount of probability is:

“to, sarcastic, epithet, for, less, corruptible, than, the, offspring, open, any, primary, loyalty, table, out, whom, example, who, mention, say”

In this set of words, the number of words starting with letter T is 4. Calculating for the probability of getting a word starting with T in this set is:

Sample probability = 4 / 20

<span>Sample probability = 0.20</span>

The graphs of the linear functions f and g are shown above. If h(x)=f(x)+g(x), then h′(x)=
SpyIntel [72]

Based on the graph,

     f(x) = 1/2x+3

    g(x) = -x+4

so, h(x) = -1/2 x +7

Since h'(x) is the derivative or slope of h(x) and h is a line,

h'(x) = -1/2, Answer C.
