Y can realistically be any positive number, since a negative number multiplied by a positive number's product is negative. a negative number will always be less than a positive number, in this case the positive number being 60.
<span>a negative number multiplied by another negative number's product is positive, so as long as the negative numbers are less than -6 (because -10 times -6 is 60, and 60 is not less than 60) y can be negative.</span>
I hope this helps!
I assume you mean one that is not rational, such as √2. In such a case, you make a reasonable estimate of it's position, and then label the point that you plot.
For example, you know that √2 is greater than 1 and less than 2, so put the point at about 1½ (actual value is about 1.4142).
For √3, you know the answer is still less than 4, but greater than √2. If both of those points are required to be plotted just make sure you put it in proper relation, otherwise about 1¾ is plenty good (actual value is about 1.7321).
If you are going to get into larger numbers, it's not a bad idea to just learn a few roots. Certainly 2, 3, and 5 (2.2361) and 10 (3.1623) shouldn't be too hard.
Then for a number like 20, which you can quickly workout is √4•√5 or 2√5, you could easily guess about 4½ (4.4721).
They're usually not really interested in your graphing skills on this sort of exercise. They just want you to demonstrate that you have a grasp of the magnitude of irrational numbers.
Answer:
D. All those resources can be found in Africa
Part A:
Given that <span>Starlight tree farms sells Douglas Firs and Noble First.
Let </span>n be the number of Noble Fir trees sold, then<span> if they sold 139 more Douglas First than Noble Firs, this means that the number of Douglas First trees sold is n + 139.
Given that the total number of trees sold was 377, then we have, n + n + 139 = 377, which means that 2n + 139 = 377
Therefore, the equation that could be used to solve for n, the number of Noble Fir trees sold is 2n + 139 = 377.
Part B:
</span><span>Given that you are driving 55 miles per hour and you must drive a total of 440 miles. If you already driven 275 miles, then, the equation representing the number of hours, h, it will take to reach your destination is given by 55h + 275 = 440.
Subtracting 275 from both sides of the equation gives:
</span>

<span>
Dividing both sides by 55 gives:
</span>

<span>
Therefore, the time it will take you to reach your destination is 3 hours.</span>
The equation you use for the slope of this kind of problem is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). x1 is the first X coordinate, x2 is the second, y1 is the first y coordinate, y2 is the second.
(5-3)/(2-2)
2/0
This equation has an UNDEFINED SLOPE, as it is just a vertical line.
