Answer:

-1 = 1/3 * 6 - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

So if it goes through point (6, -1) and has a slope of -1/3, all of this is parts of the slope intercept equal, Y = mx - B. You have the slope, which is m in the equation, y = -1/3 x - b. you already have a y and x which are the points passed, -1 = -1/3 * 6 - b, but this can't equal y, so you must have did it wrong, the only way this could equal y is if the slope wasn't negative, and in that case it would be -1 = 1/3 * 6 - 3. Because 1/3 * 6 is 2 and then subract 3 and you get -1.

Answer:

  • y = - 1/3x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>We need to find the equation of the line with:</u>

  • Slope m = - 1/3
  • Passes through the point (6, - 1)

<u>The slope intercept form is:</u>

  • y = mx + b

<u>We have the slope, find the y-intercept by substituting the coordinates and slope values into equation above:</u>

  • -1 = (-1/3)*6 + b
  • - 1 = - 2 + b
  • b = 2 - 1
  • b = 1

<u>The line is:</u>

  • y = - 1/3x + 1

12.1.33 Question Help Suppose that 62​% of families living in a certain country own an HDTV and 16​% own a computer. The Additio
poizon [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose :

62% own an HDTV

16% own a computer

Using the addition rule : suggests that (62% + 16%) = 78% either own an HDTV or a computer.

The reasoning is wrong because ; since it is possible to own both an HDTV and also own a computer at the same time, the outcome of the addition rule is wrong as both events are independent. If both event cannot occur at the same time (mutually exclusive event) , then, the addition rule may be applied,. But since both can occur independently and each family can own an HDTV while also owning a computer, then the addition rule is wrong for the scenario described.

Prove the quotient rule. hint: you can do this directly, but it may be easier to find the derivative of 1/x and then use the cha
Bess [88]
The quotient rule is
d(u/v) = (u dv - v du) / u2

d(u/v) can written as
d( u (1/v) )

Using the product rule and chain rule
d( u (1/v)) = u d(1/v) + (1/v) du
= u (-1/v2) dv + (!/v) du
= (u dv - v du) / u2

How much would it cost to buy 3 medium sodas and 2 hot dogs
Vesnalui [34]

To start off you need to figure out how much money each item costs.  Now get out your calculator because it will make this process go much faster.



EXAMPLE:

If your sodas cost $2.25 EACH you need to do the following math equation

2.25 X 3 = 6.75 witch is the total you would be paying in this situation.


HOT DOGS EXAMPLE:


Lets say that your hotdogs are $4.75 PER DOG. You just need to follow the same steps above.


4.75 X 2 = 9.5 but thats not how we write money so it would be $9.50


Hope this helps,


Daniel
