Answer:

slope = 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

use the formula

m=rise/run or m= $y_{2} - y_{1} / x_{2} - x_{1}$

-7-(-2)/(-3)-1

= 5/4 (or 1.25)

hope this helps :)

Christopher can paint the interior of his house in 15 hours. if he hires cynthia to help him they can do the same job together i

jenyasd209 [6]

If Christopher can paint his whole house in 15 hours, then he can get 1/15 of the job done in a single hour. If he hires Cynthia to help and they get the job done together (the sum of their efforts) in 9 hours, they can get 1/9 of the job done in a single hour. We are looking for how long Cynthia would take to do it on her own. Remember we are adding their efforts together and setting that equal to the total, so the equation is $\frac{1}{15}+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{9}$ . What we are going to do here, what makes the most sense in solving for x, is to move the term with x in it to the other side of the equation and move the 1/9 over by subtraction. $\frac{1}{15}-\frac{1}{9}=-\frac{1}{x}$ . Of course before we can subtract those 2 fractions we need a common denominator, which happens to be 45: $\frac{3}{45}-\frac{5}{45}=-\frac{1}{x}$ and $-\frac{2}{45}=-\frac{1}{x}$ . We will cross multiply to get 2x = 45 and divide to find that it takes Cynthia 22.5 hours to do the job if she had to do it alone.

I think it’s either B or D. Please help

Mrrafil [7]

Answer: D

Explanation: The function is an absolute value function with vertex at (-9,0). The slope of the part with x value greater than -9 is positive, and the slope of the part with x value less than -9 is negative.

The value of the cumulative standardized normal distribution at z is 0.8770. what is the value of z?

Vinvika [58]

<span>The value of z is 0.8770. This answer was derived from information in the question, which states that the value of z is 0.8770. Granted, I don't understand what is meant by "cumulative standardized normal distribution." I only passed statistics because the professor felt sorry for me.</span>

Suppose that f(x)=x2 and g(x) =4/5x2. Which statement best compares the graph of f(x)?

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Are f(x)=x2 and g(x) =4/5x2 correctly written?

This answer assumes they are supposed to be:

f(x)=x^2 and g(x) = (4/5)x^2

If these revisions are correct, g(x) would produce values that are (4/5) of f(x).

See attached graph.

I don't see any of the options for "best statement."

Anyone it is almost due help

Answer: I not super sure, but I think you are supposed to put the equations on each side of the table. Your end result should be 2x to the second -5x-3.
