Answer:

m = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that slope = (change in y) / (change in x).

Going from  (−8,−1) to (−6,−2), x increases by 2 (because -6 - (-8) = 2), and

y decreases by 1.  Thus, the slope here is

m = (change in y) / (change in x) = (-1) / 2 = -1 / 2

m = -1/2

0.9(x+1.4)-2.3+0.1x=1.6

First, distribute 0.9 to x and 1.4 to get rid of the parentheses.

0.9x+1.26-2.3+0.1x=1.6

Now, combine like terms to simplify the equation a bit.

x-1.04=1.6

Add 1.04 to both sides:

x=2.64

Your answer is 2.64.

I hope this helps :)

What is the slope of the line y+2=-2(x-3)
muminat

Answer:

m = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation is in point-slope form

The numbers added or subtracted by a variable are a coordinate point.

y + 2 --> (0,-2)

x - 3 --> (3,0)

(3,-2)

The slope is represented by the number outside of the parentheses.

Therefore, the slope of the line is -2

When you are trying to find the mean in a dot plot do you want to use the number of dots of the actual number underneath of the
yuradex [85]

The number of dots tells us how many times we need to add the actual number underneath the dots. So you need to use both.

<h3>Which number should you use for the mean?</h3>

Let's suppose we have the next set:

{2, 2, 2, 4, 5, 5, 6}

If you graphed it in a dot plot, then you will have:

  • 3 dots above the number 2.
  • 1 dot above the number 4.
  • 2 dots above the number 5.
  • 1 dot above the number 6.

A total of 7 dots.

To find the mean, we just compute:

M = \frac{2 + 2 + 2 + 4 + 5 + 5 + 6}{7} = 3.7

So the number of dots tells us how many times we need to add the actual number underneath the dots. In conclusion, to find the mean you need to use both, the number of dots and the number underneath.
