Please i really need help <br> for both qeutions<br> 100 points
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

7. a) slope = 5

7. b) slope = 1/2

8. slope = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = rise/run

rise is the vertical change, run is the horizontal change

7. a)

Pick any two points on your line. (0,0) and (1,5) are easy to work with.

The vertical change between the two points is 5

The horizontal change between those points is 1

so slope = 5/1 = 5

7. b)

Again, you can use (0,0) as one of your points. The point (2,4) is good as the second.

slope = 4/2 = 1/2

8. We don't have a graph, but we are given two points to work with, (1,4) and (5,8). Use the formula given...

m = slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

= (8 - 4) / (5 - 1)

= 4/4

= 1

I hope that helped!

Y=-1\4z+5 please grqph
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer

Attached the graph

Step by step explanation

Y = -1/4z + 5

Let's form the table values

Here z is the independent variable and y is the dependent values.

Let's take z = -1, 0, 1, 2 and find the corresponding y-values

<u>z                           y</u>

-1                         5.25

0                          5

1                           4.75

2                           4.5

Now let's plot the points and draw the graph.

Here is the graph.

Two students are reading a novel. Ashley reads 10 pages per day. Carly reads 8 pages per day, but she starts early and is alread
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The word per indicates the slope (m) of a linear function, y=mx +b.Using d for x and p for y , the equation representing Ashely's reading is p = 10d. Carly begins on page  40 which represents b, the y intercept of a linear function which indicates an initial amount.  So the equation representing Carly's reading is p=8d + 40.

Kay is a student in Mrs. Hudson’s class. Assuming you know nothing else about Kay, what is the probability that Kay’s birthday w
Drupady [299]

Answer:

262/365

Step-by-step explanation:

So as you can see there is no more information aout Kay on her birthday, so the chances of her birthday being on a week day is given by the total number of the weekdays of the year between the total number of days in a year, so in 2019 there are 262 weekdays, divided by 365 you get the probability that Kay´s birthday falls on a weekday.

262/365=,7178=71,78%

So the probability of Kay´s brithday falling on a week day will be 71,72%

Use the equation and type the ordered-pairs.
matrenka [14]

Hello!

To find the y-values of the given ordered pairs, substitute the x-values into the equation, y = log₂ x.

y = log₂ 1/2, y = -1

y = log₂ 1, y = 0

y = log₂ 2, y = 1

y = log₂ 4, y = 2

y = log₂ 8, y = 3

y = log₂ 16, y = 4

Therefore, the ordered pairs of y = log₂ x is: {(1/2, -1), (1, 0), (2, 1), (4, 2), (8, 3), (16, 4)}.
