Finding the Slope of a Line from a Table
lakkis [162]

Answer:

m = rise / run = 1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the slope of a line is m = rise / run.

Here we look at x first (to calculate the run):  x begins at -7 and ends at 0. Thus, the run is 0 - (-7), or 7.  

Now look at how y behaves (find the rise):  y begins at 0 and ends at 1. Thus, the rise is 1.

Therefore the slope of the line connecting the two poings given is

m = rise / run = 1/7

The following argument is an instance of one of the five inference forms MP, MT, HS, DS, Conj. Identify the form.
wel

Answer:

e. HS

Step-by-step explanation:

The argument:

[(P ≡ T) • (H • N)] ⊃ (T ⊃ ~S)

(T ⊃ ~S) ⊃ [(H ∨ E) ∨ R]

[(P ≡ T) • (H • N)] ⊃ [(H ∨ E) ∨ R]

is an instance of one of hypothetical syllogism (HS).

Hypothetical syllogism contains conditional statements for its premises.

Let

p = [(P ≡ T) • (H • N)]

q = (T ⊃ ~S)

r = [(H ∨ E) ∨ R]

The this can be interpreted as:

p ⊃ q

q ⊃ r

p ⊃ r

This interprets that:

If p then q

but if q then r

therefore if p then r

Thus, in logic HS is a valid argument form:

p → q

q → r

∴ p → r

Note that ⊃ symbol is used to symbolize implication relationships. This is used in conditional statements which are represented in the if...then... form.  For example p ⊃ q means: if p then q. So the type of Hypothetical syllogism used in this is conditional syllogism.

There are three parts of syllogism:

major premise

minor premise

conclusion

An example is:

If ABC is hardworking, then ABC will go to a good college.  

Major premise: ABC is hardworking.

Minor premise: Because ABC is hardworking , ABC will score well.

Conclusion: ABC will go to a good college.

Example of Hypothetical syllogism:

If AB is a CD, then EF is a GH

if WX is a YZ, then AB is a CD

therefore if WX is a YZ, then EF is a GH

This can be understood with the help of an example:

If you study the topic, then you will understand the topic.  

If you understand the topic, then you will pass the quiz.

Therefore, if you study the topic, then you will pass the quiz.

Please help.. with 6 & 15 ​
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

6. C: {x^2 +(y-1)^2 =2; x+y = 3}

15. C: The line does not intersect the circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the distance (d) from a point (x, y) to a line ax+by=c is ...

d = |ax+by-c|/√(a^2+b^2)

The formula for a circle centered at (h, k) with radius r is ...

(x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2

___

6. Comparing the circle equation to the generic equation, we find (h, k) = (0, 1) and r = √2. Then we want to find the line that is distance √2 from the center of the circle. Our line equation is x+y=c for some value of c that we want to find.

d = √2 = |0 +1 -c|/√(1^2+1^2)

2 = |1-c|

±2 = 1-c

c = 1±2 = -1 or 3

The line that is tangent to the circle is the one of choice C: x+y = 3

__

The attached graph shows the lines for all 4 answer choices. The point of tangency is (1, 2), so x+y=1+2=3.

___

15. The circle is centered at (4, 1) and has radius 3. The distance from the circle center to the line is ...

d = |2(4) -(1)|/√(2^2+(-1)^2) = 7/√5 ≈ 3.13

The distance from the circle center to the line is more than the radius of the circle, so there can be no points of intersection.

__

Alternate solution

You can substitute for y using the equation of the line. Then the circle equation becomes ...

(x -4)^2 + (2x -1)^2 = 9

x^2 -8x +16 +4x^2 -4x +1 = 9

5x^2 -12x +8 = 0

The discriminant of this quadratic is ...

b^2 -4ac = (-12)^2 -4(5)(8) = 144-160 = -16

Since this value is negative, there can be no real solutions, meaning the line does not intersect the circle.

Which term BEST describes the quadrilateral formed when line segments connect points A, B, C, and D?
NeX [460]

Answer:

The quadrilateral formed is a trapezoid

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, it is necessary to know what points A, B, C, and D.

If the points are equal to the following coordinate points

A (-2, 1)

B (2, 1)

C (3, -2)

D (-3, -2)

As shown in the image the answer would be a trapezoid.

________________________________

The figure cannot be a square, a rhombus or a rectangle since by definition these are:

A square has all sides of equal length and all its right angles.

A rhombus is a parallelogram that has all sides of equal length and all its angles different from right angles.

A rectangle is a parallelogram that has all its right angles.

The figure that we obtain is neither a parallelogram nor does it have all its right angles.
