Consider the fraction first ;

${:\implies \quad \sf \dfrac{\dfrac{3}{(x-1)}-4}{2-\dfrac{2}{(x-1)}}}$

${:\implies \quad \sf \dfrac{\dfrac{3-4(x-1)}{\cancel{(x-1)}}}{\dfrac{2(x-1)-2}{\cancel{(x-1)}}}}$

${:\implies \quad \sf \dfrac{3-4x+7}{2(x-1-1)}}$

${:\implies \quad \boxed{\bf{\dfrac{-4x+7}{2(x-2)}}}}$

Hence, Option B) is required answer

Which linear inequality is represented by the graph? (A)y ≤1/3 x − 1 (B)y ≥ x − 1 (C)y < 3x − 1 (D)y > 3x − 1

lubasha [3.4K]

The equation of the line is $\boxed{y \geqslant \frac{1}{3}x - 1}.$

Further explanation:

The linear equation with slope $m$ and intercept $c$ is given as follows.

$\boxed{y = mx + c}$

The formula for slope of line with points $\left( {{x_1},{y_1}} \right)$ and $\left( {{x_2},{y_2}} \right)$ can be expressed as,

$\boxed{m = \frac{{{y_2} - {y_1}}}{{{x_2} - {x_1}}}}$

Given:

Explanation:

The line intersects y-axis at $\left( {0, - 1} \right)$ . Therefore, the y-intercept is $-1.$

The line passes through the points $\left( {0, - 1} \right)$ and $\left( {3,0} \right).$

The slope can be obtained as follows,

$\begin{aligned}m&= \frac{{0- \left( {- 1} \right)}}{{3 - 0}}\\&= \frac{1}{3}\\\end{aligned}$

Substitute $\dfrac{1}{3}$ for m, $3$ for $x$ and $0$ for $y$ in equation $y = mx + c$ to obtain the value of $c$ .

$\begin{aligned}0& \frac{1}{3} \cdot 3 + c\\- 1&=c\\\end{aligned}$

To check whether the equation includes origin substitute 0 for x and 0 for y in equation $y \geqslant \dfrac{1}{3}x - 1.$

$\begin{aligned}0&\geqslant \frac{1}{3} \times 0 - 1 \\0&\geqslant - 1\\\end{gathered}$

The statement is true. The equation contains origin.

The equation of the line is $\boxed{y \geqslant \frac{1}{3}x - 1}.$

PLZZZ HELPPP ME ASAP!!!

Sonja [21]

Answer:

Not a function.

Does not pass vertical line test.

Step-by-step explanation:

Something called a vertical line test is used to determine if a relation that has been graphed is a function or not.

We say if it passes then it is a function.

It will pass if you are able to draw infinitely many vertical lines covering the whole graph and each vertical line either touches your relation once or none.

If a single vertical line that you draw touches more than once, then it isn't a function.

When I say draw, I don't mean you should physically do it, but more so imagine it.

Now this particular relation is not a function because I can find a vertical line that touches more than once. Take the vertical line x=5 for example.

It will touch at (5,-6) and (5,6). You cannot have an x assigned to more than one y.

The data show the average monthly temperatures for two cities over a 6-month period. City 1: {20, 24, 40, 63, 76, 89} City 2: {4

Mrac [35]

Answer:

The MAD of city 2 is less than the MAD for city 1, which means the average monthly temperature of city 2 vary less than the average monthly temperatures for City 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

For comparing the mean absolute deviations of both data sets we have to calculate the mean absolute deviation for both data sets first,

So for city 1:

$Mean = x1 = \frac{20+24+40+63+76+89}{6}$

$x1 = \frac{312}{6}$

$x1 = 52$

Now to calculate the mean deviations mean will be subtracted from each data value. (Note: The minus sign is ignored as the deviation is the distance of value from the mean and it cannot be negative. For this purpose absolute is used)

$20-52 = -32=32\\24-52=-28=28\\40-52=-12=12\\63-52=11\\76-52=24\\89-52=37$

The deviations will be added then. $Mean Absolute Deviation = \frac{32+28+12+11+24+37}{6} \\=\frac{144}{6}\\=24$

So the mean absolute deviation for city 1 is 24 ..

For city 2:

$Mean = x2 = \frac{41+50+58+62+72+83}{6}$

$x2 = \frac{366}{6}$

$x2 = 61$

Now to calculate the mean deviations mean will be subtracted from each data value. (Note: The minus sign is ignored)

$41-61=-20=20\\50-61=-11=11\\58-61=-3=3\\62-61=1\\72-61=11\\83-61=22$

The deviations will be added then. $Mean Absolute Deviation = \frac{20+11+3+1+11+22}{6} \\=\frac{68}{6}\\=11.33$

So the MAD for city 2 is 11.33 ..

So,

The MAD of city 2 is less than the MAD for city 1, which means the average monthly temperature of city 2 vary less than the average monthly temperatures for City 1.
