Answer:

-3 is a rational integer.

Step-by-step explanation:

An integer is a superset of the whole numbers that includes the negated values as well as 0.

A rational number is simply anything that can be expressed as a fraction.

-3 is by these definitions, a negated 3, and any non fractional number can be expressed as a fraction.

-3 is not a natural number, as that is the set of numbers {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ... etc} and -3 is not a whole number, as that is the set of numbers {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... etc}.

And -3 is also not an irrational number since it can be expressed as a fraction.

Thus, -3 is a rational integer.

Cheers.

Find the equation of the line in slope-intercept form containing the points (6, -1) and (-3, 2).

egoroff_w [7]

Slope intercepf is y=mx+b wherem=slope and b= y intercept
slope is found by doing
(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
points are (6,-1) and (-3,2)
(x,y)
x1=6
y1=-1
x2=-3
y2=2
subsitute
(-1-2)/(6-(-2))=-3/(6+2)=-3/8
slope=-3/8
subsitute
y=-3/8x+b
subsitute and solve for b
(-3,2)
x=-3
y=2
2=-3/8(-3)+b
2=9/8+b
2=16/8
subtract 9/8 from both sides
16/8-9/8=b
7/8=b
y=-3/9x+7/8 is the equation

Which statement correctly compares the mean number of students for the data in the plots?

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

"There are about 2 more students in each class at Oak Middle School than at Poplar Middle School."

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to compute the mean for each.

Poplar Middle School:

Lets list the numbers

20,20,20,21,21,21,21,21,22,22,22,22,22,22,22,23,23,23,23,24

The average is sum of all divided by number of numbers, that will be:

435/20 = 21.75

Oak Middle School:

The numbers are:

20,21,21,22,22,23,23,23,23,24,24,24,25,25,26,26,27,27,28,29

The average is sum divided by number of numbers, that will be:

483/20 = 24.15

The difference in mean is:

24.15 - 21.75 = 2.4

We can say, that is about 2 more students in Oak Middle School, correct answer choice is "2nd answer choice" - "There are about 2 more students in each class at Oak Middle School than at Poplar Middle School."

Please answer correctly !!!!!!!!!!! Will mark brainliest !!!!!!!!!!!

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

lower price = 3

higher price =11

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = -2(x-3) (x-11)

Setting equal to zero

0 = -2(x-3) (x-11)

Using the zero product property

x-3 = 0 x-11 =0

x=3 x = 11
