Answer:

You will have 128 orange marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Set this up as an equation

Variable x = number of orange marbles

3/8 = 48/x

Cross multiply

3 × x = 8 × 48

3x = 384

Divide both sides by 3 to isolate the variable

3x ÷ 3 = 384 ÷ 3

1x = 128

x = 128

128 orange marbles

Check work:

Substitute the variable x for the answer

3/8 = 48/128

Cross multiply

3 × 128 = 8 × 48

384 = 384

If the numbers equal, the answer is correct

I need help finding the slope
grin007 [14]

answer:
-1

work:

y = mx+ b

so we can tell that the Y intercept is 1, so we can plug that in. ( + b is the y-intercept)

y = mx + 1

plug in some values to find the slope.
(-1, 2)
2 = -m + 1
- 1       - 1

1 = -1m 
/-1   /-1

-1 = m
the slope is -1.

i hope this helps! :D

The table shows the numbers y of students absent from school x days after a flu outbreak.
allsm [11]
  1. A function that models the data is given by this quadratic equation, y = -0.4908x² + 5.8845x + 1.3572.
  2. The number of students that are absent 10 days after the outbreak is equal to 11 students.

<h3>What is a scatter plot?</h3>

A scatter plot can be defined as a type of graph which is used for the graphical representation of the values of two (2) variables, with the resulting points showing any association (correlation) between the data set.

<h3>What is a quadratic function?</h3>

A quadratic function can be defined as a mathematical expression (equation) that can be used to define and represent the relationship that exists between two or more variable on a graph.

In Mathematics, the standard form of a quadratic equation is given by;

ax² + bx + c = 0

By critically observing the graph (see attachment) which models the data in the given table, we can infer and logically deduce that the quadratic function is given by:

y = -0.4908x² + 5.8845x + 1.3572

For the number of students that are absent 10 days after the outbreak, we have:

y = -0.4908(10)² + 5.8845(10) + 1.3572

y = -0.4908(100) + 58.845 + 1.3572

y = -49.08 + 58.845 + 1.3572

Number of students, y = 11.12 ≈ 11 students.

Edgar wants to plot the ordered pair (1.8, - 1.2) on a coordinate plane on each axis one grid square equals 0.1 . Starting at th
yan [13]

Answer:

For better understanding of the answer see the attached figure :

length of grid square on each axis on coordinate plane is 1 units

But here it is given to be 0.1 units.

So, in order to find the ordered pair (1.8 , -1.2) we need to first locate 1.8 on x-axis and -1.2 on y-axis

Now, as each axis one grid square equals 0.1 . So,we go 18 units on positive x -axis and mark point (1.8,0) and 12 units on negative y-axis and mark point (0,-1.2) and draw vertical and horizontal lines passing through these points respectively. And the point of intersection of these lines is our required point (1.8,-1.2)

storchak [24]

Since line m is parallel to line k.

Their slopes are equal.

slope of line k= 2/3 [given]

So; Slope of line m=2/3

Hope it helps...
