The slope is -2.

The slope is the rise over the run. Because the line goes down from left to right, it makes the value negative. For every one the it moves to the right, the line goes down two units.

Is each line parallel, perpendicular, or neither parallel nor perpendicular to a line whose slope is −6?

Parallel, slope is the same, perpendicular slope is opposite and reciprocal

line n, with slope −6 , same slope -----> Parallel

line p, with slope 1/6 , opposite and reciprocal -----> Perpendicular

line q, with slope −1/6 , -----> Neither

line m, with slope 6, -----> Neither

If the probability of a win is 0.02, and the probability of a draw is 0.8, what is the probability of a loss?

atroni [7]

A probability is a number between zero and one.

There are 3 options win, lose or draw.
This means that (win + loss + draw = 1)

From the information given you know:
Win = 0.02
Draw = 0.8

So: 0.02 + loss + 0.8 = 1
Therefor loss = 1 - 0.8 - 0.02
loss = 0.18
final answer ^

Hope this helps, let me know if you don't get any of it!

At Acme Inc., there are 3 more than twice as many salespeople as inventors. If the whole company has 27 employees,

Olenka [21]

Answer:

There are 8 inventors.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 's' be the salesperson

Let 'i' be the inventors

Given that there are 3 more than twice as many salespeople as inventors.

i.e s = 3+2i

Also given that the whole company has 27 employees.

i.e.

s + i = 27

substituting s = 3+2i

3 + 2i + i= 27

3 + 3i = 27

3i = 27 - 3

3i = 24

divide both sides by 3

i = 8

Thus, there are 8 inventors.

VERIFICATION

As the total number of employees is 27.

so the salespeople will be:

s = 3+2i

= 3 + 2(8)

= 3 + 16

= 19

Thus, the total employees are verified as:

s + i = 27

19 + 8 = 27

27 = 27

Can I get an answer please

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer is D. f(x) = x + 1

when x = -1, f(-1) = -1 + 1 = 0
when x = 0, f(0) = 0 + 1 = 1
when x = 1, f(1) = 1 + 1 = 2
when x = 2, f(2) = 2 + 1 = 3

Hope it helps
