Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(the line is a / shape, so the slope is positive)

(the line crosses the y axis at (0,-2))

(using the above information, we can conclude that the equation is y=2x-2)

slope = m = rise/run = 2/1 = 2

y=mx+b

y=2x+b

Choose any point on the line) (1,0)

0=2(1)+b

b=-2

y=2x-2

Which is the equation for the line that has a slope of 12 and passes through the point (3, 20)?

sasho [114]

Answer:

y=12x-16

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-20=12(x-3)

y=12x-36+20

y=12x-16

How to reduce a ratio to lowest terms

aleksley [76]

It is usual to represent ratios in their simplest form so that we are not operating with large numbers. Reducing ratios to their simplest form is directly linked to equivalent fractions.

For example: On a farm there are 4 Bulls and 200 Cows. Write this as a ratio in its simplest form.

Bulls : Cows

4 : 200

If we halve the number of bulls then we must halve the number of cows so that the relationship between the bulls and cows stays constant. This gives us:

Bulls : Cows

2 : 100

Halving again gives us

1 : 50

So the ratio of Bulls to Cows equals 1 : 50. The ratio is now represented in its simplest form.

An example where we have 3 quantities.

On the farm there are 24 ducks, 36 geese and 48 hens.

Ratio of ducks : geese : hens

24 : 36 : 48

Dividing each quantity by 12 gives us

2 : 3 : 4

So the ratio of ducks to geese to hens equals 2 : 3 : 4 which is the simplest form since we can find no further common factor.

Problem 18

Answers:

~P -> Q: "if it is not fall, then the leaves change colors"

~P -> ~Q: "if it is not fall, then the leaves don't change colors"

P -> ~Q: "If it is fall, then the leaves don't change colors"

Q -> ~P: "If the leaves change colors, then it is not fall"

----------

Explanation:

Simply replace each letter with the corresponding definition. We replace each P with "it is fall" and each ~P with "it is not fall". The squiggly line means "not". The same idea applies with Q and ~Q.

==========================================

Problem 19

Answer: Choice A) 134

----------

Explanation:

AB = CD

8x = 4x+24

8x-4x = 24

4x = 24

x = 6

BC = 18x+26

BC = 18*6+26

BC = 134

==========================================

Problem 20

Answer: Choice C) x = 5 and y = 11

----------

Explanation:

(anglePQR)+(angleRQS) = 90

(12x-2)+(6x+2) = 90

18x = 90

x = 5

angle TQU = 90

10y-20 = 90

10y = 110

y = 11

==========================================

Problem 21

Answer: 99

----------

Explanation:

The remote interior angles add to the exterior angle (remote interior angle theorem)

(angle RPQ) + (angle PQR) = angle PRS

(3x-29) + (7x-42) = 6x-3

10x-71 = 6x-3

10x-6x = -3+71

4x = 68

x = 68/4

x = 17

angle PRS = 6x-3

angle PRS = 6*17-3

angle PRS = 99

==========================================

Problem 22

Answer: 116

----------

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below.

Solve 105+x = 180 to get x = 75

Solve 135+y = 180 to get y = 45

Solve x+y+z = 180 to get z = 60

Solve z+82+p = 180 to get p = 38

Solve p+78+q = 180 to get q = 64

Solve q+r = 180 to get r = 116

==========================================

Problem 23

Answer: B) between 4 and 44 inches

----------

Explanation:

We use a variation of the triangle inequality theorem here.

If p is the missing side length, then

24-20 < p < 24+20

4 < p < 44

So,

4 < XY < 44

The side XY cannot be 4 inches and it cannot be 44 inches either.

==========================================

Problem 24

4 Answers: A, B, C, D

----------

Explanation:

Same idea as problem 23

24-10 < x < 24+10

14 < x < 34

So we'll select values between 14 and 34, excluding each endpoint. Those values are x = 16, 18, 24, 26

In other words, only 12 and 34 are non-answers.

==========================================

Problem 25

Answer: C) 84 degrees

----------

Explanation:

The given exterior angle is 152 degrees

Subtract that from 180 to get the adjacent interior angle 180-152 = 28

Now let's find the missing angle of triangle DEB

D+E+B = 180

28+68+B = 180

96+B = 180

B = 180-96

B = 84

This is the measure of angle DBE

This is also the measure of angle ABC because the two angles are vertical angles.

Vertical angles are always congruent.
