Answer:
The slope of the line is m = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is essentially change in height over change in horizontal distance, and is often referred to as "rise over run." It has applications in gradients in geography as well as civil engineering, such as the building of roads. In the case of a road the "rise" is the change in altitude, while the "run" is the difference in distance between two fixed points, as long as the distance for the measurement is not large enough that the earth's curvature should be considered as a factor. The slope is represented mathematically as:
m = y2-y1 / x2-x1
m = 2 - 5 / -1 - 2
m = -3 / -3
m = 1
X1 is 2
Y1 is 5
X2 is -1
Y2 is 2
The answer is 2.25 square inches or 7.065 square inches.
a. f(a) =5a+12
we have 1. a=6
Therefore, where ever we find a we'll substitute in 6
f(6) =5(6) +12
6f=30+12
6f=42
so therefore 1. a=6 will match c on the right
2. a=2
f(2) =5(2) +12
2f = 10+12
2f = 22
therefore 2. a=2 will match a on the right
3. a=4
f(4) =5(4) +12
4f=20+12
4f=32
therefore 3. a=4 will match d on the right
4. a=5
f(5) =5(5) +12
5f=25+12
5f=37
therefore 4. a=5 will match b on the right
Number of weekend minutes used: x
Number of weekday minutes used: y
This month Nick was billed for 643 minutes:
(1) x+y=643
The charge for these minutes was $35.44
Telephone company charges $0.04 per minute for weekend calls (x)
and $0.08 per minute for calls made on weekdays (y)
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44
We have a system of 2 equations and 2 unkowns:
(1) x+y=643
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44
Using the method of substitution
Isolating x from the first equation:
(1) x+y-y=643-y
(3) x=643-y
Replacing x by 643-y in the second equation
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44
0.04(643-y)+0.08y=35.44
25.72-0.04y+0.08y=35.44
0.04y+25.72=35.44
Solving for y:
0.04y+25.72-25.72=35.44-25.72
0.04y=9.72
Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.04:
0.04y/0.04=9.72/0.04
y=243
Replacing y by 243 in the equation (3)
(3) x=643-y
x=643-243
x=400
Answers:
The number of weekends minutes used was 400
The number of weekdays minutes used was 243
