Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient of the line segment is the same as slope

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

= ( -4 - -5)/( 2 - -4)

= (-4+5)/( 2 +4)

1/6

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Gradient = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\$

$=\frac{-4-[-5]}{2-[-4]}\\\\=\frac{-4+5}{2+4}\\\\=\frac{1}{6}$

I don’t know if it’s A or B

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

this is true due to the ratio of a 30-60-90 triangle, which is 1-2-sqrt(3). The 12 corresponds to the sqrt(3), which means that the 1 corresponds to 4sqrt3 and the 2 to 8sqrt3.

Given the function f(x) = 2|x + 6| – 4, for what values of x is f(x) = 6?

lara [203]

Answer:

x = -1 , - 11,

Step-by-step explanation:

| x | = x

|- x | = x

f(x) = 2 | x + 6 | - 4

x = - 1 , f( - 1) = 2 | - 1 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 5 | - 4 = 10 - 4 = 6 , True

x = 1 , f( 1 ) = 2 | 1 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 7 | - 4 = 14 - 4 = 10 , False

x = 11, f( 11 ) = 2 | 11 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 17 | - 4 = 34 - 4 = 30 , False

x = - 11, f( - 11) = 2 | -11 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | - 5 | - 4 = 10 - 4 = 6 , True

x = 14 , f( 14 ) = 2 | 14 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 20 | - 4 = 40 - 4 = 36 , False

x = -14 , f( - 14 ) = 2 | - 14 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | - 8 | - 4 = 16 - 4 = 12 , False

x = - 26 , f( - 26) = 2 | -26 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | -20 | - 4 = 40 - 4 = 36 , False

x = 26, f( 26 ) = 2 | 26 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 32 | - 4 = 64 - 4 = 60 , False

Given f ( x ) = 6

f( x ) = 2 | x + 6 | - 4

6 = 2 | x + 6 | - 4

6 + 4 = 2 | x + 6| - 4 + 4 [ adding 4 to both sides ]

10 = 2 | x + 6 | + 0

5 = | x + 6 | [ dividing both sides by 2 ]

$- 5 =\ ( x+ 6) \ = 5\\\\$ $[ \ | x | = a\ => \ -a \ = x \ = a \ ]$

$- 5 - 6 = \ x + 6 - 6 \ = \ 5 - 6\\$ $[ \ subtracting \ by \ 6 \ ]$

$-11 = \ x \ = - 1$

Kia has 2 1/4 pounds of peppermint candies. She wants to put them in small bags, each about 3/8 of a pound . How many small bags

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When I am dealing with fractions I put them in money wise so 2 1/4 would be like 2.25 and 3/8 would be like 0.75.

So that means you divide 2.25 by 0.75 and that will give you three.

Therefore Kia can make<u><em> 3 small bags of candies.</em></u>
