Consider what the slope of this line would be. Slope is rise/run; this line rises 7 (5 - (-2)) and runs 0 (0 - 0). This means that the slope would be 7/0. Dividing by zero is not possible, therefore, it cannot be written in slope-intercept form.

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

option C

c. least: $101

greatest: $1001

Step-by-step explanation:

A radio station advertises a contest with ten cash prizes totaling $5510. There is to be a $100 difference between each successive prize.

Sum of 10 prizes = 5510

100 is the difference. there is a common difference d=100

So its a arithmetic sequence

the sum formula for arithmetic sequence is

$S_n = \frac{n}{2}(2a_1 +(n-1)d)$

Sn = 5510, n=10 n d= 100 we need to find out first term a1

$5510 = \frac{10}{2}(2a_1 +(10-1)100)$

5510 = 5 (2a1 + 900)

5510 = 10a1 + 4500

Subtract 4500 on both sides

1010= 10a1

divide by 10 on both sides

a1 = 101

so first term that is least term is 101

To find out greatest term we use formula

$a_n = a_1 + (n-1) d$

a(10) = 101 + (10-1)100

= 101 + 900= 1001

greatest is 1001
