Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

reminder on addition / subtraction

+ (- ) = - or - ( + ) = -

- ( - ) = +

(+) + ( +) = +

A

7 + (- 5) = 7 - 5 = 2 ← not negative

B

1 + (- 1) = 1 - 1 = 0 ← not negative

C

- 3 + 4 = 1 ← not negative

D

The correct answer is: D. (-3) + 2 = -1

The other ones result in a positive sum:

A: 7 + (-5) = 2
B: 1 + (-1) = 0
C: (-3) + 4 = 1

Fine the slope of the line through each pair of points . (-8,-20),(5,2)
kozerog [31]

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (-8, -20) and (5, 2). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{2-(-20)}{5-(-8)}=\dfrac{22}{13}

Answer: The slope is \dfrac{22}{13}

Exit Ticket: At noon, a tank has a water depth of 9 in. After 3 hours, the depth was 8 inches. At 6pm, the depth was 7 inches. W
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The  straight line equation is:

y = m*x  + b     Where m is the slope of the line and b the intercept with   y-axis, in our case y is the depth of the tank and x (time in lapsus of 3 hours).

The slope m  =  ( y₂ -  y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁)

We have point  A ( 3 , 8 )  and point  B ( 6 , 7 )

m  = ( 6 - 3 ) / (7 - 8 )  m = -3

We see that  each 3 hours time-depth decreases  1 in.

Then   to find the depth at the beginning of x-axis

At  noon     12   tank was  9 inches, three hours before at 9 in the morning the depth was 10 inches and:

9  in the morning   10

6  in the morning   11

3  in the midnight   12

12 in the night         13

Then 13 is the intercept with y-axis

then the equation is:

h = - 3*x + 13

Note x is time in lapsus  of 3 hours

An animal reserve has 40,000 elk. The population increases 11% a year. How long tell the population is equal to 80,000. If someo
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

7 years (This answer is to the nearest year)

Step-by-step explanation:

The way you could work this out is by trial and error. 11 % a year means that its population increases by 4400 annually. 40,000 X 1.11^1 gives you the amount it would be after one year (44000). I got the 1.11 because of the percentage (0.11) plus the amount you need to do percentage increase (1). Then all you do is keep on going up till you hit the number you need (80,000) after about 7 years the total would have hit 80,000 and would have actually went past it (83046)
