I would think that all but one point would be on the line. One way to approach this problem is to find the equation of the line based upon any two points chosen at random, and then determine whether or not the other points satisfy this equation. Next time, would you please enclose the coordinates of each point inside parentheses: (2.5,14), (2.25,12), and so on, to avoid confusion.
14-12
slope of line thru 1st 2 points is m = ---------------- = 2/0.25 = 8
2.50-2.25
What is the eqn of the line: y = mx + b becomes
14 = (8)(2.5) + b; find b:
14-20 = b = -6. Then, y = 8x - 6.
Now determine whether (12,1.25) lies on this line.
Is 1.25 = 8(12) - 6? Is 1.25 = 90? No. So, unless I've made arithmetic mistakes, (1.25, 5) does not lie on the line thru (2.5,14) and (2.25,12).
Why not work this problem out yourself using my approach as a guide?
Answer: Points (-1 , 7.5), (0 , 6), and (1 , 4.5).
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 20% since the percentages cancels each other out.
Answer:
48.
Step-by-step explanation:
First you multiply the number by itself as many times as the number of the exponent is. In this case you <u>multiply -3 to itself 6 times which makes -729</u>, <u>2 to the 6th power is 64</u>, <u>-3 to the 5th power is -243, and 2 to the 2nd power is 4.</u> Then you <u>multiply -729 by 64 which makes -46656</u> and <u>multiply -243 by 4 which makes -972</u>, and then <u>divide -972 from -46656</u> <em>which makes 48</em>.
