Answer:

finding slope: The slope will be the same for a straight line no matter which two points you pick as you know. All you need to do is to calculate the difference in the y coordinates of the 2 points and divide that by the difference of the x coordinates of the points(rise over run). That will give you the slope.

parallel: We can determine from their equations whether two lines are parallel by comparing their slopes. If the slopes are the same and the y-intercepts are different, the lines are parallel. If the slopes are different, the lines are not parallel. Unlike parallel lines, perpendicular lines do intersect.

hope this helps!

Answer:

The slope of a line is the rise/run of how far away the points are from each other. Say you have the equation y=3/4x-6, the slope is 3/4 so that means you plot your first point at -6 on the y-axis, because that is your y-intercept, and then you will go up 3, right 4. You will continue to do this until you have enough points to make a line. When two lines are parallel, they will always have the same slope. So the lines y=1/2x+4 and y=1/2x-3 are parallel because not only do they have the same slope, they do not intersect at all, which is a requirement for parallel lines. I hope this helps!!

[SCREENSHOT INCLUDED] Which of the following is the best estimate of f '(2) based on this table of values?
mel-nik [20]

Using derivatives, it is found that the best estimate of f '(2) based on this table of values is of 10.

The rate of change <u>from x = 0 to x = 2</u> is given by:

r_1 = \frac{2 - (-16)}{2 - 0} = \frac{18}{2} = 9

From <u>x = 2 to x = 4</u>, it is given by:

r_2 = \frac{24 - 2}{4 - 2} = \frac{22}{2} = 11

The average of these rates is:

A = \frac{r_1 + r_2}{2} = \frac{9 + 11}{2} = 10

Hence, the best estimate of f '(2) based on this table of values is of 10.

Increase 840 in the ratio 2 : 3​
Iteru [2.4K]

Ratios be 2x and 3x

\\ \rm\longmapsto 2x+3x=840

\\ \rm\longmapsto 5x=840

\\ \rm\longmapsto x=\dfrac{840}{5}

\\ \rm\longmapsto x=168

Now

  • 2x=2(168)=336
  • 3x=3(168)=508
