Answer:

Slope: 2

The slope how much y increases when x increases by 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the difference between both y-coordinates. (6)

2. Find the difference between both x-coordinates. (3)

Divide the difference between y and x. y/x=2

The slope is 2.

Answer:

The slope of line that passes through the points (2, -4) and (5, 2) is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's the required formula to find slope line :

${\longrightarrow{\pmb{\sf{m = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}}}}}$

As per given question we have provided that :

$\begin{gathered}\footnotesize\rm {\underline{\underline{Where}}}\begin{cases}& \sf y_2 = 2\\& \sf y_1 = - 4\\ & \sf x_2 = 5\\ & \sf x_1 = 2\end{cases} \end{gathered}$

Substituting the values in the formula to find slope line that passes through the points :

$\begin{gathered}\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m = \dfrac{(2) - ( - 4)}{5 - 2}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m = \dfrac{2 + 4}{3}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m = \dfrac{6}{3}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m = 2}}}\\\\\qquad{\star{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\pink{m = 2}}}}}} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the slope of line that passes through the points (2, -4) and (5, 2) is 2.

\The lengths of a lawn mower part are approximately normally distributed with a given mean Mu = 4 in. and standard deviation Sig

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

68.26% of the parts will have lengths between 3.8 in. and 4.2 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths of a lawn mower part are approximately normally distributed

$\mu = 4$

Standard deviation = $\sigma =0.2$

We are supposed to find What percentage of the parts will have lengths between 3.8 in. and 4.2 in . i.e. P(3.8<x<4.2)

Formula : $Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

At x = 3.8

$Z=\frac{3.8-4}{0.2}$

Z=-1

Refer the z table for p value

p value =0.1587

At x =4.2

$Z=\frac{4.2-4}{0.2}$

Z=1

Refer the z table for p value

p value =0.8413

P(3.8<x<4.2)=P(x<4.2)-P(x<3.8)=0.8413-0.1587=0.6826

So, 68.26% of the parts will have lengths between 3.8 in. and 4.2 in.

H(-4), h(0), h(4), h(8)

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

The first two x-values, -4 and 0, fall in the first part of the function definition.

There is no function definition for x = 4, as the second part only applies for x > 4.

The last x-value, 8, falls in the second part of the function definition.

The function is evaluated by putting the x-value where x is in the expression and doing the arithmetic. For example, ...

h(-4) = -(-4+1)^2 +7 = -(-3)^2 +7 = -9 +7 = -2

h(0) = 6

h(4) = undefined

h(8) = -8/3
