1) gradient of line = Δ y ÷ Δ x
= (5 -2) ÷ (3 - (-6))
= ¹/₃
using the point-slope form (y-y₁) = m(x-x₁)
using (3,5)
(y - 5) = ¹/₃ (x -3)
y - 5 = ¹/₃x - 1
⇒ <span> y = ¹/₃ x + 4 [OPTION D]
</span>2) y = 2x + 5 .... (1)
<span> </span>y = ¹/₂ x + 6 .... (2)
by substituting y in (1) for y in (2)
2x + 5 = ¹/₂ x + 6
³/₂ x = 1
x = ²/₃
by substituting found x (2)
y = ¹/₂ (²/₃) + 6
y = ¹⁹/₃
∴ common point is (²/₃ , ¹⁹/₃) thus answer is FALSE [OPTION B]
3) Yes [OPTION A]
This is because the both have a gradient of 5 and if they have the same gradient then that means that the two lines are parallel to each other.
4) No [OPTION B]
Two lines are perpendicular if their gradients multiply to give - 1 and as such one is the negative reciprocal of the other. Since both gradients are ¹/₂ then they are actually parallel and not perpendicular.
Answer: a) 0 and 0.01 b) 0.99 and 1 c) 0.3 d) 0.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the likelihood that an event will occur. Probability values always lies between 0 and 1 0<P<1
A sure event occurs when the probability is 1 or values pretty close to 1 while probability of an impossible event is 0 or values close to 0. Looking at the given probability values, we can conclude that!
a) 0 and 0.01 = The event is impossible, it would never occur.
b) 0.99 and 1 - The event is certain, it would always occur.
c) 0.3 - The event is highly unlikely, but it will occur once in a while.
d) 0.6 - The event will occur more often than not.
Answer:
A. Y-68=-5(x-14)
Step-by-step explanation:
Mary is spending money at the average rate of $5 per day. After 14 days she has $68 left. The amount left depends on the number of days that have passed. write an equation for the situation
We find the equation using the point slope equation of a line. This is given as:
y - y1 = m(x-x1)
The slope intercept form will be
y = -5x + b
since the amount decreases by $5 per day...
Our slope is -5 so m=-5
We have a point (x1,y1) = (14, 68)
Hence, we have:
y-68 = -5(x-14)
Option A is correct
Answer:
y = -1/2x + 0
y = mx+b
Step-by-step explanation:
Question 1:
We are going to add.
1/5 + 1/2
2/10 + 5/10
7/10
Note that we are going DOWN so the number will be negative.
Therefore, the answer is A.) -7/10
Question 2:
We are going to subtract.
4 1/2 - 1 2/3
9/2 - 5/3
27/6 - 10/6
17/6 or 2 5/6
Note that we are still BELOW sea level so the number will be negative.
Therefore, the answer is C.) -2 5/6
Question 3:
We are going to subtract.
2 2/3 - 1 1/5
8/3 - 6/5
40/15 - 18/15
22/15 or 1 7/15
Therefore, the answer is B.) 1 7/15
Best of Luck!
