What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (7, -4) and (7, 0)? Write your answer in the simplest form.

olga55 [171]

Answer:

The slop is undefined

i.e. $m=\infty$

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the slope formula

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

As the points are (7, -4) and (7, 0)

Here:

(x₁, y₁) = (7, -4)

(x₂, y₂) = (7, 0)

$\mathrm{When\:}y_1\ne \:y_2\mathrm{\:and\:}\:x_1=x_2\mathrm{\:the\:slope\:is\:}\infty$

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$=\frac{\left(0-\left(-4\right)\right)}{\left(7-7\right)}$

$=\frac{0-\left(-4\right)}{0}$

$=\infty$

Therefore, the slop is undefined i.e. $m=\infty$

Determine whether the function f (x) = x + 9x” is even, odd or neither.

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is even because if we put x=1 then we get 10 if we put x=2 then we get 20 and so on. So all these are even numbers.

The head of a computer science department is interested in estimating the proportion of students entering the department who wil

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

At 95% Confidence interval level,Level of significance $\alpha$ 0.05, the value of Z from the standard normal tables = 1.96

Margin of Error = 0.10

Let assume that the estimated proportion = 0.5

therefore; the sample size n can be determined by using the formula: $n =(\dfrac{Z}{E})^2 \times p\times (1-p)$

$n =(\dfrac{1.96}{0.1})^2 \times 0.5\times (1-0.5)$

$n =(19.6)^2 \times 0.5\times (0.5)$

n = 96.04

n $\approx$ 96
