Answer:

5 pies.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 pieces=6 half of 6=3

A line passes through the point (3,6) and has a slope of 5?

hammer [34]

Answer:

y = 5x - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁), where (x₁, y₁) = (3, 6)

y - 6 = 5(x - 3)

y = 5x - 15 + 6

y = 5x - 9

What is the equation of the line that passes through 1,4 and 2,1

sashaice [31]

Answer:

y = -3x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line

y = mx + c

y - intercept point y

m - slope of the line

x - intercept point x

c - intercept point of the line

Step 1: find the slope

m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

Given two points

( 1 , 4) ( 2 , 1)

x1 = 1

y1 = 4

x2 = 2

y2 = 1

insert the values

m = 1 - 4 / 2 - 1

m = -3/1

m = -3

y = -3x + c

Step 2: substitute any of the two points given into the equation of a line

y = -3x + c

( 1 ,4)

x = 1

y = 4

4 = -3(1) + c

4 = -3 + c

4 + 3 = c

c = 7

Step 3: sub c into the equation

y = -3x + 7

The equation of the line is

y = -3x + 7

Select all the correct answers. Which statements are true about function g? NO LINKS!!!

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

A, B, E

Step-by-step explanation:

The attachment shows a graph of the function. It tends to infinity for x going to infinity in either direction. (A, B are true)

The right-side piece is cubic, not quadratic.

The U-shape tells you the function is decreasing on the left side.

The two function definitions have the same value at x=2, so the function has no discontinuities. It is continuous. (E is true)

What value of x is in the solution set of 3(x – 4) > 5x + 2?

bonufazy [111]

We have to simplify and get the value of x from this inequality given:

Given inequality,

$3(x - 4) > 5x + 2$

Now let's simplify by using distributive property,

$3x - 12 > 5x + 2$

We need to find x, so let's isolate x to the letter side of the inequality for calculation at ease.

$3x - 12 - 5x - 2 > 0$

$- 2x - 14 > 0$

Now, dividing -2 from both sides.

Note : As we are dividing a negative number from both sides, the sign of the inequality will be <u>reversed</u>.

$\dfrac{ - 2x - 14}{ - 2} > \dfrac{0}{ - 2}$

$x + 7 < 0$

Now subtracting -7 from both sides,

$x + 7 - 7 < 0 - 7$

$x < - 7$

Or, Interval of the equal $(- \infin, -7 ]$

What are the exact solutions of x2 − 5x − 1 = 0 using x equals negative b plus or minus the square root of the quantity b square

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

$x=2.5+\frac{\sqrt{29}}{2}\\\\x=2.5-\frac{\sqrt{29}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So the question here is asking you to use the quadratic formula which is expressed as: $x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\$

A quadratic can generally be expressed as: $y=ax^2+bx+c$

So using the equation you gave: $0=x^2-5x-1$

We can identify the following values: a=1, b=-5, c=-1

Btw the equation explicitly write "1" as the coefficient of x, but since it's not provided it's implied that it's 1.

So plugging in the known values, we get the following equation:

$x=\frac{5\pm\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(1)(-1)}}{2(1)}\\\\x=\frac{5\pm\sqrt{25+4}}{2}\\\\x=\frac{5\pm\sqrt{29}}{2}\\\\x=2.5+\frac{\sqrt{29}}{2}\\\\x=2.5-\frac{\sqrt{29}}{2}$

The last step just consists of taking the + and - solution, and since it asks for exact solutions you leave the 29 under the radical, and you don't approximate. There is no further simplification that can be done here.
