Answer: slope is 1/3
Step-by-step explanation: make a graph of y=1/3x+9
Step-by-step explanation:
We must ask a question that your answer corresponds to each of the topics in the statement, therefore we will review each one:
5. Distances members of the track team jogged last week
How far did you run last week?
6. Numbers of letters in name of street you live on
How many letters are there in the name of your street?
7. Cost of a restaurant dinner
How much did you pay for dinner?
8. Numbers of cars of different colors in a parking lot
What color is your car?
Don't get too involved in the 'simplify' part just yet.
It doesn't mean make the problem easier.
It means that when you have the answer, make sure it's in simplest form.
That's why it says "Simplify your answer".
Notice that that's the 2nd instruction.
There's nothing to simplify until you have an answer.
The first thing you have to do here is find the area of a triangle.
Do you remember that formula ?
I'll bet you do.
The area of a triangle is (1/2) · (length of the base) · (height) .
The height and the length of the base are given, right there
in the picture. Take those, and use them to find the area.
Once you've multiplied the binomials, don't forget about the (1/2).
Finally, you have a trinomial for an answer.
Put the big sweet cherry on top: Factor it !
I think that's the 'simplify' part.
You may be surprised.
I was when I worked it out just now ... just for you.
6/54 times because there are 9 marbles and the orange marble is 1 out of those 9 marbles. If you multiply 6*9= 54 then you notice there is a 6/54 chance of picking any 1 marble out of the 54 times that you decide to pick marbles.
