Answer:

-11/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope can be found with this equation:

(y₁ - y₂) / (x₁ - x₂)

What this essentially tells us to do is to put one set of the x and y coordinates into x₁ and y₁, respectfully. Then, put the other set of x and y points as x₂ and y₂.

With this scenerio, we can substitute the given points into the formula.

(6 - (-5)) / (-4 - 2) =

(6 + 5 ) / (-6) =

11 / (-6) =

-11/6

The slope is  - 11/6

Let fat be the explanatory variable and calories be the response variable; which scenario best describes ŷ = 121 + 1.42x?
emmasim [6.3K]

Using <u>linear function concepts</u>, it is found that the correct option is:

The amount of calories in a cheeseburger increases by 1.42 for every one gram of fat. The calorie amount estimated by this model is 121 if there are zero grams of fat.

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which represents by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

In this problem:

  • The explanatory variable fat is the input.
  • The response variable calories is the output.

The equation is:

y = 121 + 1.42x

  • The slope is of 1.42, which means that the amount of calories increases by 1.42 when the amount of fat increases by 1 gram.
  • The y-intercept is of 121, which means that if there are 0 grams of fat, there will be 121 calories.

Thus, the correct option is:

The amount of calories in a cheeseburger increases by 1.42 for every one gram of fat. The calorie amount estimated by this model is 121 if there are zero grams of fat.

Use the definition mtan=lim
Leokris [45]

(a) mtan refers to the slope of the tangent line. Given <em>f(x)</em> = 9 + 7<em>x</em> ², compute the difference quotient:

\dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}h = \dfrac{(9+7(x+h)^2)-(9+7x^2)}h = \dfrac{(9+7x^2+14xh+7h^2)-9-7x^2}h = \dfrac{14xh+7h^2}h

Then as <em>h</em> approaches 0 - bearing in mind that we're specifically considering <em>h</em> <em>near</em> 0, and not <em>h</em> = 0 - we can eliminate the factor of <em>h</em> in the numerator and denominator, so that

m_{\rm tan} = \displaystyle \lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}h = \lim_{h\to0}\frac{14xh+7h^2}h = \lim_{h\to0}(14x+7h) = 14x

and so the slope of the line at <em>P</em> (0, 9), for which we take <em>x</em> = 0, is 0.

(b) The equation of the tangent line is then <em>y</em> = 9.

Labor rate = $7.50 per hour Labor time = 6.5 hours Retail price of parts = $0 Total job cost = $82.00 Overhead rate?
Ulleksa [173]
Total cost job=
Retail price of parts+labor cost+manufacturing overhead

Total cost job 82

Retail price of parts 0

Labor cost=7.5×6.5=48.75

Manufacturing overhead ?

82=0+48.75+?

?=82−48.75

?=33.25

Manufacturing overhead is 33.25

Now find manufacturing overhead rate from the cost of labor
33.25÷48.75=0.682×100=68.2%

The answer 68.2%
