Answer:

5n-6= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference of...... this means its asking us to subtract one number from another number

5 times a number...... that means 5n

6..... since it said DIFFERENCE, it would be -6

is -2........ this means the answer to the equation is -2

So the equation is 5n-6= -2

Hope this helps!

Match each set of points with the slope of the line formed by the ordered pairs.
Fynjy0 [20]

1) The slope of the point (0,0) and (2,1) is 1/2.

2) The slope of the point (0,-1) and (2,-5) is -2.

3) The slope of the point (0,7) and (2,4) is -3/2.

4) The points (-1,3) and (-1,-3) has No slope.

5) The slope of the point (1,-3) and (-1,-3) is zero.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

There are five set of points given in the question.

You need to find out the slope of the line formed by the points.

The formula used to find the slope of a line is given by,

Slope = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

1) The given points are (0,0) and (2,1)

(x1,y1) ⇒ (0,0)

(x2,y2) ⇒ (2,1)

Slope = \frac{1-0}{2-0}

⇒ 1/2 is the slope.

2) The given points are (0,-1) and (2,-5)

(x1,y1) ⇒ (0,-1)

(x2,y2) ⇒ (2,-5)

Slope = \frac{-5+1}{2-0}

⇒ \frac{-4}{2}

⇒ -2 is the slope.

3) The given points are (0,7) and (2,4)

(x1,y1) ⇒ (0,7)

(x2,y2) ⇒ (2,4)

Slope = \frac{4-7}{2-0}

⇒ -3/2 is the slope.

4) The given points are (-1,3) and (-1,-3)

(x1,y1) ⇒ (-1,3)

(x2,y2) ⇒ (-1,-3)

Slope = \frac{-3-3}{-1+1}

⇒ -6/0 (No slope)

If the denominator of a fraction is zero, the expression is not a legal fraction because it's overall value is undefined.

∴ There is no slope.

5) The given points are (1,-3) and (-1,-3)

(x1,y1) ⇒ (1,-3)

(x2,y2) ⇒ (-1,-3)

Slope = \frac{-3+3}{-1-1}

⇒ 0/-2

∴ The slope is zero.

Does the point (6,3) satisfy the equation y = 4(x – 5)?
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

plug (6,3) into the given equation to find out

3 = 4(6-5)

3 = 4(1)

3 = 4

since 3 does not equal 4, the point (6,3) does not satisfy the equation y=4(x-5)

A card was selected at random from a standard deck of cards. The suit of the card was recorded, and then the card was put back i
cupoosta [38]

The relative frequency of selecting a diamond from 40 trials of selecting a random card is 30%.

<h3>What is relative frequency?</h3>

The relative frequency of an event is the ratio of total number of favorable or desired outcome to the total number of trails done.

Given information-

The card is selected random from the deck of cards.

Total number of trails is 40.

It is known that the total number of diamond card in a standard deck of card is 11. There is total 40 trials is done in which a random card is selected.

As the relative frequency is the ratio of total number of diamonds to the total number of trials done. Thus,

f_r=\dfrac{11}{40}\\f_r=0.3

In the percentage from,

f_r={0.3}\times100\\f_r=30

Thus the relative frequency of selecting a diamond from 40 trials of selecting a random card is 30%.
