Answer:

The number of butterflies he collects = 176

The number of moth he collects = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

This question has to do with ratio.

We are told in the question that:He collects 4 butterflies for every moth.

Hence, the ratio of

Butterflies : Moth

4 : 1

Sum of the proportion = 4 + 1 = 5

We are also told he has a total of 220 butterflies and moths.

Hence:

The number of butterflies he collects is calculated as

4/5 × 220 = 176 butterflies

The number of moth that he collects =

1/5 × 220 = 44 moth

What is the point slope of an equation with slope of 3/5 that passes through the point (10,-2)
Verdich [7]
The answer would be B. It gives you the slope and a point on the graph so use that to your advantage. All of the answers show the slope and the slope in the right place, so for now it can be any of them. Then we get to the point (10,-2). For point slope form you would switch the signs for both x and y. So the Y would now be +2 and x would be -10. Y goes together with y, and X goes together with x. In this case y+-y= slope(X+-x) Substitute in for them. Y+2=3/5(X-10)

Which of the following are incorrect expressions for slope?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Option B and C are correct.

\frac{x_2-x_1}{y_2-y_1}

\frac{run}{rise} are the expression incorrect for slope

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is defined as the change in the dependent variable  relative to the change in the dependent variable

or the ratio of the horizontal changes to vertical changes between any two points on the graph of the line.

The vertical changes between any two points is rise

The horizontal changes between any two points is run.

Formula for slope is given by:

For any two points (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2)

then slope is:

\text{Slope} =\frac{rise}{run}= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

or we can write this as:

Δy = y_2-y_1

Δx = x_2-x_1

⇒\text{Slope} = \frac{\triangle y}{\triangle x}

Therefore, the expression which are incorrect for slope  are;

\frac{x_2-x_1}{y_2-y_1}

\frac{run}{rise}
