What word describes the slopes of the line

Mathematics
1 answer:
grin007 [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Positive

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple ways we can go about this.

First, we can see that as x increases, so does y, so that means its positive

For perspective, if x is the amount of time and y is the number of sales, we can see that the sales are going up and not going down or staying at the same place

If you wanna check your work on that, you can plot two points and find the slope using y1-y1/x1-x2 and the slope will be positive.

We can also use the process of elimination, we know it can't be zero because it's not a straight, horizontal line and we know its not undefined because it isn't a straight vertical line, so it's between negative and positive, and since the line is going up, that means that it's positive.

<h3>What is the meaning of avarage?</h3>

An average value is defined as the sum of all the values divided by the total number of values in a given data.

Therefore we get,have ion industry  average hourly earnings, 2000-2009 a line graph titled construction industry, average hourly earnings (dollars), 2000 to 2009,

where the x-axis shows years and the y-axis shows average hourly earnings of production workers.

line starts at 17.2 on january 2000, slowly increases to 19.7 on january 2006, then increases more quickly to 20.5 on january 2007 and 22.4 on january 2009

<h3>What is the meaning of increasing 2%?</h3>

The percent increase between two values is the difference between a final value and an initial value, expressed as a percentage of the initial value.

Therefore from the given data line starts

17.2 on january 2006

20.5 on janury 2007

22.4 on janury 2009

It seems that The option B is correct.

The sum of 2 consecutive numbers is 37. Find the numbers. If x represents the smaller integer, then the larger integer is
NARA [144]

Answer:

x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a few ways this problem could be solved. The easiest route is to note that the first part of the question says "2 consecutive numbers". If the numbers are next to each other on a number line (consecutive) and x is the smaller number, the larger number is x + 1.

To check, let's find the two numbers. We know the numbers are next to each other on a number line and that together, they equal 37. Let's begin with 15 and 16.

15 + 16 = 31

These numbers are too low, as they should add to 37. Let's try 18 and 19.

18 + 19 = 37

There are the two correct numbers. If x = the smaller number, x = 18.

18 + 1 = 19

Since this is correct, we know for sure that the answer is x + 1.

Write the equation of the line that passes through (2,3) and (4, 1) in point-slope form. Use (2,3) for (x1, y1).
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

y-2 = -(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)  where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are two points on the line

    = (1-3)/(4-2)

   =-2/2

   =-1

The point slope form is

y-y1 = m(x-x1)  wher m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line

y-3 = -1(x-2)

y-2 = -(x-2)
