Answer:
Point B
Step-by-step explanation:
Lines given:
- y= 2/5x - 1/2
- y= -1/3x +2/3
x coordinate of intersection of given lines is:
- 2/5x - 1/2= -1/3x+2/3
- 2/5x+1/3x= 2/3 +1/2
- 6/15x+5/15x= 4/6+3/6
- 11/15x=7/6
- x= 7*15/11*6
- x= 35/22
For this value of x, the value of y is:
- y= 2/5*35/22 - 1/2
- y=14/22- 1/2
- y= 3/22
As per graph point (35/22, 3/22) is point B
F(x) is the same as y.......so basically ur subbing in ur points into the equation to see if it comes out equal.
f(x) = 3 - 2x.....(-2,-1)....x = -2 and f(x) = -1
-1 = 3 - 2(-1)
-1 = 3 + 2
-1 = 5.....this is not true, so it is not a solution
and that is how to do this problem.....
(-1,5)......this IS a solution
(0,3)......this IS a solution
(1,0)...this IS NOT a solution
(2,-1)...this IS a solution
The slope is 2, because you subtract the points 3,17 from 7,25 to get 8/4/ Simplify that into 2.
Answer:
Option B, -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The slope is change in y over change in x.</u>
<u />
<em>Since this line is facing downward, we already know that the slope is negative.</em>
<em />
<u>To find the ratio, find the change in y and divide the change in x.</u>
<em>Change in y = -1</em>
<em>Change in x = 2</em>
<em />
<u>Change in y over change in x:</u> <em>-1/2</em>
Answer: Option B, -1/2
