Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (-2 - (-2))/(3 - (-6)) = (-2 + 2)/(3 + 6) = 0/9 = 0
Required slope = 0
Answer:
A. 2.50
Step-by-step explanation:
25 ÷ 2 = 12.5
15 - 12.5 = 2.50
Answer:
15.79%
Step-by-step explanation:
do 95-80 which is 15
then do 15/95 as a fraction then multiply that number by 100 to get 15 15/19 then turn that into a decimal and you get 15.79%
Both problems give you a function in the second column and the x-values. To find out the values of a through f, you need to plug in those x-values into the function and simplify!
You need to know three exponent rules to simplify these expressions:
1)
The
negative exponent rule says that when a
base has a negative exponent, flip the base onto the other side of the
fraction to make it into a positive exponent. For example,

.
2)
Raising a fraction to a power is the same as separately raising the numerator and denominator to that power. For example,

.
3) The
zero exponent rule<span> says that any number
raised to zero is 1. For example,

.
</span>
Back to the Problem:
Problem 1
The x-values are in the left column. The title of the right column tells you that the function is

. The x-values are:
<span>
1) x = 0</span>Plug this into

to find letter a:

<span>
2) x = 2</span>Plug this into

to find letter b:

<span>
3) x = 4</span>Plug this into

to find letter c:

<span>
Problem 2
</span>The x-values are in the left column. The title of the right column tells you that the function is

. The x-values are:
<span>
1) x = 0</span>Plug this into

to find letter d:

<span>
2) x = 2
</span>Plug this into

to find letter e:

<span>
3) x = 4
</span>Plug this into

to find letter f:

<span>
