Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 7/8 by 1/4. (You divide the "supply" of raisins into 1/4 cup "parts".)

$\frac{7}{8} \div \frac{1}{4} = \frac{7}{8} \times \frac{4}{1} = \frac{28}{8} =\frac{7}{1} =7$

Multiply 7/8 by the reciprocal of 1/4 ("flip" the 1/4).

The result is 28/8, which can be simplified ("reduced") to 7.

LOTS OF POINTS!?!?!?Write a linear function f with the values f(5)=−1 and f(0)=−1. f(x)=

Brut [27]

Answer:

The euation of the linear function is:

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

As the function has the values

at x = 5, f(5) = -1

at x = 0, f(0) = -1

Thus, the two points are:

(5, -1)

(0, -1)

Finding the slope between (5, -1) and (0, -1)

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(5,\:-1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(0,\:-1\right)$

$m=\frac{-1-\left(-1\right)}{0-5}$

$m=0$

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation is

y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

We also know that the y-intercept can be computed by setting x=0 and finding the corresponding value of y.

so at x = 0, y = -1

Thus, the y-intercept 'b' = -1

Now, substituting m = 0 and b = -1 in the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

y = 0x + -1

y = -1

Therefore, the euation of the linear function is:

y = -1

Help with math please???

Tresset [83]

Okay, let's see...

The problem is asking for a linear equation most likely in the form of y=mx+b

y is another way to say f(x)

m = slope

b = y intercept

Let's start with the y intercept first.

Y intercept means ' When does the line touch (intercept) the y axis.

In this case, if you look at the graph, the line touches the y axis at -1.

-1 will replaces b

To find the slope we are going to take 2 precise points from the graph.

Lets use (0,-1) and (-6,4)

To find the slope, we're going to use $\frac{(y_{2} -y_{1} )}{(x_{2} -x_{1} )}$

4 - (-1) / -6 - 0

Solve, our slope is 5/-6

That is our m

Our final equation is

$f(x)=\frac{-5}{6} x -1$

Please help thank you.

I believe that through deductive reasoning angle O is 64 degrees. The reason is it's bigger than angle R so that rules out 32 and 16 degrees, but it's not obtuse, so that rules out 128 degrees, thereby leaving you with 64. Hope this helps :)
