1. m
2. One set of ordered pairs
3. b
To show why this is, I’m going to explain how to write the equation for a linear function with two random sets of ordered pairs - (1,0) and (5, 8).
First, find the slope. The formula for slope is m = (y2 - y1)/(x2-x1) where m is the slope and (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two sets of points.
This is why #1 is m. M is the letter used when finding slope.
To find m, I plug in the two sets of ordered pairs.
m = (8-0)/(5-1)
m = 8/4
m = 2
An equation for a line (linear function) is written in something called slope-intercept form. It looks like y = mx + b. m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (number y equals when x = 0). If m = 3 and b = 1, the equation would be y = 3x + 1.
Here, you have just solved for m and know it equals 2. Plug that value in for m.
y = 2x + b
To solve for b, plug one ordered pair in for x and y. I will use (1,0)
0 = 2(1) + b
0 = 2 + b
-2 = b
Now that you know b = -2, plug that in for b.
y = 2x - 2. Now you have the equation fo the line.
Answer:
8,566,379,470 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start simple. In order to find the population increase on January 1, 2006, we need to multiply 6,486,915,022 by 1.4% and add it to 6,486,915,022.
- 6,486,915,022*1.4% = 90,816,810.308
- 90,816,810.308+6,486,915,022 = 6,577,731,832.31 people on January 2006.
Note that the above two steps gives the same answer as 6,486,915,022*1.014.
So we need to do this for each year. 20 years pass between 1/1/2005 and 1/1/2025.
We need to do 6,486,915,022*1.014*1.014*1.014... 20 times.
This is equivalent to
.
Multiplying it out gives us 8566379470.2 = 8,566,379,470 people.
2/3,2/6,2/8
23 is the greatest because it has larger pieces
2/6 is the second greatest because it is a little smaller than thirds
2/8 is the least because it has the smallest pieces
