Step-by-step explanation:
gradient = slope or several other words.
it describes how strongly a line (or tangent to a bent curve) is going up or down or ... if it is changing at all.
it is represented by the ratio
(y coordinate change / x coordinate change)
when going from one point on the line to another.
in our case, when going from A to B we have
x changes by -2k (from 3k to k).
y changes by -11 (from 8 to -3).
so, the gradient or slope is
-11/-2k = 3
11/2k = 3
11 = 3×2k = 6k
k = 11/6
A = (33/6, 8) = (11/2, 8)
B = (11/6, -3)
Answer:
x=1, y=7
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -3x + 10 - first equation
y=-3x + 4 - second equation
rearrange the expression to
-3x-y= -10
3x-y= -4
pick an equation and simplify; lets pick the second equation
3x-y= -4
divide 3 by both sides
x=
- third equation
substitute the value of x into an equation; lets pick the first equation
-3x-y= -10
-3
- y = -10
simplify. -3 cancels 3 so we are left with
-1(-4+y)-y = -10
simplify
4-y-y= -10
4-2y= -10
subtract 4 from both sides
-2y= -10-4
-2y= -14
divide -2 by both sides
y=7
substitute the value of y, (y=7) in an equation, we are using the second equation
3x-y= -4
3x-7= -4
3x = -4+7
3x= 3
divide 3 by both sides
x=1
so the answer is x=1, y=7
Answer:
X is the midpoint of the line wxy
Answer:
1. P ( tails) = 1/2
2.P (number greater than 4) = 1/3
3. P (2 die sum to 8) = 5/36
Step-by-step explanation:
A coin only has 2 possibilities, head or tails, and they are equally likely
So the probability of getting a tails is 1/2
P ( tails) = 1/2
A die has the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6 . There are 2 numbers greater than 4. They are 5 and 6. So there are 2 of the 6 choices that work.
P (number greater than 4) = 2/6 = 1/3
See the dice chart
There are 36 possibilities when you roll the die.
There are 5 that sum to 8
P (2 die sum to 8) = 5/36
