Answer:
4th number line (the one of the bottom right)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, solve the inequality, then choose the number line that mathes the solution.
3x ≤ -6
<em>Only step: Divide by 3.</em>
x ≤ -6/3
x ≤ -2
But which number line matches the solution?
We know this is going left, so #1 & #3 are out. This also has a closed circle (because of ≤ (less than/equal to)), so #2 is also out.
Number line #4 matches the solution (x ≤ -2), so it is the answer.
Answer:
y = -2.5 x + 6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is written as
y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
a) We can find the slope of the line passing through (-1,30 and (-4, 5) by subtracting the y coordinates and dividing the difference by the difference if the x coordinates:
m = (5 - 3 ) = 2
-4 - (-1) -3
Now use this slope and substitute the coordinates of either of the given points to find the y-intercept, b . Let's use (-1,3):
y = mx + b
3 = -2 • -1 + b
3
3= 2 + b
3
7 = b
3
The equation of the line will be y = -2 x + 7
3 3
b) Using y = mx + b, we can substitute -2.5 for the slope and use the point to find the y-intercept:
y = -2.5x + b
1.5 = -2.5 • 2 + b
1.5 = -5 + b
6.5 = b
The equation of the line will be:
y = -2.5 x + 6.5
There is 7,000 female students, and 5,000 male students. Because, if there was 2,000 more female students then male, you have to find out what two numbers add up to 12,000. (Tip, to make it easier, take away the thousands, like 7+5)
Answer:
x = 4.17
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve
4.2 k 2 k
---------------- = ---------------
8.76 x
Using cross products
4.2 * x = 2 * 8.76
4.2x =17.52
Divide by 4.2
x=4.17
