Some methods for graphing equations work well with certain equations and some don’t. Knowing which method to select based on the

given equation is a valuable skill. You have learned three methods to graph equations. These methods are:
y = mx + b
find intercepts
use a t-chart

A. Post your response to the discussion board.

Using the following 3 equations, answer the questions:
11 x plus y equals 4 space x plus y equals negative 2 space x minus 2 y equals 18

How can you determine which equations can be graphed more easily using x- and y-intercepts, rewriting in slope-intercept form, or using a table of values?
Which method works best for you personally? When does it not work as well?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I tried to translate "11 x plus y equals 4 space x plus y equals negative 2 space x minus 2 y equals 18"

This is what I got:

11x + y = 4

x+y=-2

x-2y=18

For me, personally, I need to rewrite these equations into standard format of y=mx+b (slope intercept):

-------

11x + y = 4

y=-11x+4

-------

x+y=-2

y=-x-2

-------

x-2y=18

2y = x-18

y=(1/2)x-9

------

For each one I can find the y-intercept easily: (4, -2. and -9). I can quickly generate a second point by assuming a convenient value for x (one that makes the calculation simple).

1. y=-11x+4 let x = 1; y = -7 : (1,-7)

y=-x-2 let x = 2; y= -4 : (2,-4)

y=(1/2)x-9 let x= 2; y=-8 : (2,8)

The y-intercepts tell us at point on the line for each equation:

(4, -2. and -9) means points at (0,4), (0,-2) and (0.-9)

Now we have two point for each line equations. All we have to do is mark those two points for each equation and draw a line through them. Easy!

The two points for each equation are:

1. (1,-7), (0,4)

2. (2,-4), (0,-2)

3. (2,8), (0.-9)

This always works well for equation of lines. More comples equations involving parabolas, etc., are more easily graphed using tables of the results of various x inputs.

Answer:

1)

A)

We must use the formula b x h/2  12 x 8/2 = 48    

A=48

B)

We must use the formula 1/2a root c squared - a squared

Solving and substituing will get you 35.78

2)

A)

We must divide 81 by 2 to get 9. Since this is a square, all sides will be 9. Then, we must add 9 four times to get 36 cm as our perimeter

B) If we draw the square with a diagonal line, we can understand that the diagonal line (hypotenus) is  s root 2.

3) The formula for this area of a triangle is h x b/2. We must substitute the numbers to get our answer:

h x b /2 = 10 x 20/2 = 200/2 = 100

AREA IS 100cm squared

The original cost of Sam’s investment is $10,000. After liquidating the investment, Sam calculated his real return to be $10,700
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Return on investment (ROI) = 7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount invested = $10,000

Total amount get (refund) = $10,700

Find:

Return on investment (ROI) = ?

Computation:

Amount Return = Total amount get (refund) - Amount invested

Amount Return = $10,700 - $10,000

Amount Return = $700

Return\ on\ investment \ (ROI) = [\frac{Amount\ Return}{Amount\ invested} ]100\\\\Return\ on\ investment \ (ROI) = [\frac{700}{10,000} ]100 \\\\ Return\ on\ investment \ (ROI) =7

Return on investment (ROI) = 7%

You own an accessories store, and sales last month were $24,000. You had $3,500 in discounts and $975 in returns.
Len [333]

Answer:

The net sales for last month were <u>$19,525</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Last month sales were $24,000.

Discounts is $3,500 and $975 in returns.

Now, to get the net sales for last month.

So, we deduct the discount:

<em>Sales - discounts</em> = \$24,000 - \$3,500 =\$20,500.

Then, we deduct the returns from the remaining amount:

<em>Sales after discounts - returns</em> = \$20,500 - \$975

                                                   = \$19,525.

Therefore, the net sales for last month were $19,525.
