The graph of linear f passes through the point 1 -9 and has a slope of -3 what is the zero of f

Mathematics
1 answer:
AlexFokin [52]3 years ago

Answer:

(C) -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Points on the graph (x1, y1) = (1, -9).

Mathematically, the equation of a straight line is given by the formula;

y = mx + c

Where;

m is the slope.

x and y are the points

c is the intercept.

To find the zero of the linear function f, we would use the following formula;

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Substituting into the formula, we have;

y - (-9) = -3(x - 1)

y + 9 = -3x + 3

y = -3x + 3 - 9

y = -3x -6 = mx + c

Intercept (c) or zero of a function = -6

goblinko [34]
The line drops 3 squares for each one it moves to the right, so the slope is
.. -3/1 = -3

The 1st selection is appropriate.

_____
Given the choices, you can tell at a glance that -3 is the correct one. When it goes down to the right, the slope is negative. when the angle is steep, the slope has a magnitude greater than 1. Of the negative choices offered, {-3, -1/3}, the obvious choice is -3.

A line has a slope of ±1 when it makes a 45° angle with the x- and y-axes. Steeper than that is a slope whose magnitude is greater than 1. Shallower than that, and the slope has a magnitude less than 1.

Evaluate [16 ÷ (2 + 3 • 2)] + [4 • (36 – 25)]
maw [93]

Answer:

46

Step-by-step explanation:

There is an open + in the middle. It does not have any brackets around it. Therefore you do it at the very last.

Left side of the plus sign.

[16 ÷ (2 + 3*2)] Do the multiplication inside the parenthesis ( 2*3) first.

= [16 ÷ (2 + 6)] Add inside the parenthesis.

= [16 ÷ 8 ]         Do the division

= 2

Right side of the open plus sign

[4 * (36 - 25)]   Do the subtraction first.

[4 * 11 ]             Do the multiplication

44

Now combine both right and left side.

2 + 44

46

The answer is 46.

An engineer is going to redesign an ejection seat for an airplane. the seat was designed for pilots weighing between 130lb and 1
Vlad [161]

Answer: 0.4758

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mean : \mu=137\text{ lb}

Standard deviation : \sigma =28.9\text{ lb}

Also, the new population of pilots has normally distributed .

The formula to calculate the z-score :-

z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

For x=130 lb .

z=\dfrac{130-137}{28.9}=-0.2422145\approx-0.24

For x=171lb.

z=\dfrac{171-137}{28.9}=1.1764705\approx1.18

The p-value =P(-0.24

=0.8809999-0.4051651=0.4758348\approx0.4758348\approx0.4758

Hence, the required probability : 0.4758
