You can take any 2 points from the table and calculate the slope, as follows:
-2-(-4) 2
m = slope = ---------- = ------ = -1/5
-5 - 5 -10
The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b. You already know m (which is -1/5), and have several points from which to choose to obtain x and y. Let's use the given point (-2, -1).
Then -1 = (-1/5)(-2) + b, or -1 = 2/5 + b. Solve for b.
-5 = 2 + 5b, so 5b = -7, and b = -7/5.
The desired equation is y = (-1/5)x - 7/5.
To find percent, you take 91 and divide it by 99.2 then multiply by 100.
(91/99.2) × 100 = 91.92%
Ramesh is not correct because as the exponents decrease, the previous value is divided by 7
.
<u>Explanation:</u>
An exponent refers to the number of times a number is multiplied by itself. For example, 2 to the 3rd (written like this: 23) means: 2 x 2 x 2 = 8. 23 is not the same as 2 x 3 = 6. Remember that a number raised to the power of 1 is itself.
Exponents are superscript numerals that let you know how many times you should multiply a number by itself. Some real world applications include understanding scientific scales like the pH scale or the Richter scale, using scientific notation to write very large or very small numbers and taking measurements.
Answer: 2(3m+4n+2) is the answer
