Answer:

2.42

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to use two points from store b to find the slope (y1-y2)/(x1-x2). I chose the first two points. (15.54-25.9)/(1.5-2.5)= 10.36. After you take another point from store b to plug into the equation y1-y2=m (x1-x2). M is the slope we just found and I used the first point.

Y1-15.54=10.36 (x1-1.5) distribute the 10.36 to the parentheses.

Y1-15.54=10.36x -15.54 get y1 by itself

Y=10.36x so store b is 10.36 a pound and store a is 7.94 a pound. 10.36-7.94= 2.42

Margie says the set of numbers, 0. 1, -1, -21 4 , 3, are in order from least to greatest. What is her error? She did not use the

forsale [732]

One of the errors made by Margie by saying the set of numbers 0, 1, -1, -21, 4, 3 is that the -21 should be the first number on the list.

The given set of numbers is:

0, 1, -1, -21, 4, 3.

Margie says that the set of numbers above is in order from least to greatest

Kindly note that:

The negative number with the highest magnitude is the lowest

The positive number with the highest magnitude is the highest

Arranging this number by carefully following the note above, the set of numbers above from the least to greatest is:

-21, -1, 0, 1, 3, 4

It is obvious that Margie made a mistake in arranging the numbers, and one of the mistake is that the -21 should be the first number on the list since it is the most negative

Write as a product: ax^2+ay^2–bx^2–by^2+b–a

Vesna [10]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{ax^2+ay^2-bx^2-by^2+b-a=(a-b)(x^2+y^2-1)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$ax^2+ay^2-bx^2-by^2+b-a\\\\=(ax^2-bx^2)+(ay^2-by^2)+(b-a)\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\=x^2(a-b)+y^2(a-b)-1(a-b)\\\\=(a-b)(x^2+y^2-1)$
