Answer:

The slope is - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope, m =change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis represent

change in the value of y = y2 - y1

Change in value of x = x2 -x1

y2 = final value of y

y 1 = initial value of y

x2 = final value of x

x1 = initial value of x

The line passes through the point (6, 2) and (4, 10)

y2 = 10

y1 = 2

x2 = 4

x1 = 6

Slope,m = (10 - 2)/(4 - 6) = 8/- 2 = - 4

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = y2 - y1/x2 - x1

Given

x1 = 6

y1 = 2

x2 = 4

y2 = 10

Therefore

Slope = 10 - 2/4 - 6

= 8/-2

= -4

Noah was asked to find the median of the following numbers.
Digiron [165]

Answer:

Noah did not make any error

Step-by-step explanation:

The median of a list of strictly increasing numbers is simply the middle number. If there's an even number of numbers in the list, then the median is the average of the middle two terms.

Here, the numbers are 115, 109, 117, 136, 127, 131. When ordered from least to greatest, we get: 109, 115, 117, 127, 131, and 136, which is what Noah got.

Since there are 6 numbers (6 is even), the median will be the average of the middle two numbers, which are 117 and 127: (117 + 127)/2 = 244/2 = 122

So, Noah was correct.

The area of one field is 16 acres, and the area of the second field is 1 1/4 times bigger. A barn of wheat on the first field ma
Elodia [21]

Answer:

858 thousand pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The first field has an area of 16 acres; the second has an area "1 1/4 times bigger".

Most people will interpret that incorrectly, saying the area of the second field is 16 time 1 1/4, which is 20. But the grammatically correct interpretation of "1 1/4 times bigger" is the size of the first field, plus 1 1/4 more times the size of the first field.

So the size of the second field in acres is 16+%2B+1.25%2A16+=+36

So the first field has an area of 16 acres and the second has an area of 36 acres.

The first field yields 37.5 thousand pounds of wheat per acre. The total amount of wheat from the first field is 16%2A37500+=+600000

The yield from the second filed is 1 2/15 times as much per acre as the first field. The yield in pounds per acre for the second field is 37500%2A%2817%2F15%29+=+40500.

So the total amount of wheat from the second field is 36%2A40500+=+1458000

The difference in the total yield from the two fields is 1458000-600000+=+858000

The second field yielded 858 thousand pounds more of wheat.
