Find the slope between :
(0,6
(8,-6)
This is for my hw.​

Answers

Answer:

Exact form: -3/2

Decimal Form: -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there!

We need to find out the slope of the given two coordinates/points, that are:

(0,6(8,-6)

Solution:

We'll need to use the formulae that is used to find out the slope,that is:

[tex] \pink{\star}\boxed{\rm \: Slope = \cfrac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 - x_1}} \pink{\star}[/tex]

According to this question,here:

[tex]\rm \blue{\star} (y_2 , y_1) = (-6 , 6) \blue{\star}[/tex][tex]\rm \blue{\star}(x_2 , x_1)= (8 , 0) \blue{\star}[/tex]

So substitute them accordingly:

[Slope is denoted as m]

[tex] \rm \: m = \cfrac{ - 6 -( 6)}{8 - 0} [/tex]

Simplify using PEMDAS rule.

[tex] \rm \: m = \cfrac{ - 12}{8} [/tex]

-12/8 could be canceled.

[tex] \rm \: m = \cfrac{ - 6}{4} [/tex]

-6/4 could also be canceled.

[tex] \boxed{ \rm \: m = \cfrac{ - 3}{2} \: or \: - \cfrac{3}{2} }[/tex]

Or it could be represented as decimal:

[tex] \boxed{ \rm \: m = - 1.5}[/tex]

Hence , the slope m will be -3/2 or -1.5

Re-Written Problem [Formatted]

Teams with varying numbers of players are playing a group card game. the time taken by each team to complete one game is given in the table. What is the relationship between the two variables?

Numbers of players on team are going to be 1, 2 , 3, 4, 5.

time taken to complete game (in minutes) 32, 26, 20, 14, 8

(Select the correct answer)

A. Positive linear association

B. Exponential relationship

C. Negative linear association

D. No relationship

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step-by-step explanation:

Lower x values (numbers of players on team) are correlated with higher y values (time taken to complete game)

[note: I know which values are x and y because of a cause-and-effect relationship. x causes y. number of players causes a change in minutes {it wouldn't make sense for the number of time it took to cause the number of players} ]

So, if we were to graph this relationship, we would see a downward-slope / negative slope of a line, because greater x-values are associated with lower y-values.

So, you would see a negative line, showing a negative linear association.

What is quadratic equation?

A quadratic equation is a second-order polynomial equation in a single variable x. ax²+bx+c=0. with a ≠ 0 .

x²-13x+q=0

when x= 12

So, 12²-13*12+q=0

2. Draw a diagram that matches the equation you circled.

Answers

Using the figure given, The one equation that matches with the diagram is 3x=30-6.  The diagram that matches the equation circled is given in the image attached.

What is the Equations about?

From the above, we can see that the equation that matches with the diagram are:

3(x+6)=3030=3x+66+3x=30

Note that for 3(x+6)=30

3x +  18 = 30

3x = 30-18

3x = 12

x = 12/3

x = 4

Then fixing x into the equation =

3(x+6)=30

3(4+6)=30

Therefore , 12 + 18 will give us 30 and the answer is straight forward. The same applies for 30=3x+6 and 6+3x=30 as the answer is straight forward.

But the one equation that does not matches with the diagram is 3x=30-6 because its output is not straight forward.

3x =30-6

3x = 24

x = 24/3

x = 8

Fixing 8 into the equation

3x = 30-6

3(8) = 24

=24 is the  answer and not 30

Therefore, Using the figure given, The one equation that matches with the diagram is 3x=30-6.

The number of students that were absent is; 24

How to find the Probability?

Let the total number of students be x .

The number of students which were absent = ¹/₃x.

Number of students which were present = ²/₃x

Thus;

Number of students who attended math's test = ¹/₂x

Number of students who attended physics test = ¹/₄x

No. of students who attended both tests = 6

A denotes number of students who attended math's test

B denotes number of students who attended physics test

Thus;

n(A) = ¹/₂x

n(B) = ¹/₄x

n(A ∩ B) = 6

n(A∪B) = number of students which were present

Thus;

n(A ∪ B) = n(A) + n(B) − n(A∩B)

²/₃x = ¹/₂x + ¹/₄x − 6

²/₃x = ³/₄x - 6

³/₄x - ²/₃x = 6

x = 72

Thus, number of students that were absent = ¹/₃ * 72

Number of students that were absent = 24

Each interior angle measures 108°.
All of the angles are congruent.
The polygon is a regular hexagon.
The sum of the measures of the interior angles is 180(5 – 2)°.

Answers

Answer:

Each interior angle measures 108°.All of the angles are congruent.The sum of the measures of the interior angles is 180(5 – 2)°.

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is [tex]180(n-2)[/tex] degrees, where n is the number of sides. In this case, n=5, so the sum is 180(5-2)=540 degrees, meaning the first statement is false.

(2) Since the angles add to 540 degrees, dividing this amongst the five equal angles, we get that each angle measures 108 degrees, so this statement is true.

(3) By definition, all angles of a regular polygon are congruent.

(4) A hexagon has 6 sides, but this polygon has only 5 sides, so this statement is false.

(5) This is true. (See statement (1)).

The large rectangle shown here is 3cm by 5 cm. What is a direct way to determine the area of the rectangle in square centimeters that relies on the meaning of area?

Answers

Answer:

Place the squares on the rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The area of the 1cm by 1cm square is 1 square cm.

We can solve for the area by placing multiple of those squares in the larger rectangle.

If we place it, we get 15 placed squares, with a total area of 15 square cm. This relies on the meaning of area, as we are simply measuring the number of square cm taken up by the object.

We would place 3 rows of 5 squares, representing a height of 3 cm (side length of 3 squares), and a length of 5 cm (side length go 4 squares).

This also proves the area formula A = L * W, as we multiple the side lengths to find the number of square units.

a bicycle wheel has a diameter of 65cm what is the length of 1000 revolutions of the wheel in metres​

Answers

Answer: 2041 meters

A bicycle wheel is a circular object.

The circumference of a circle is 2π(radius)

Here given:

diameter: 65 cmradius = diameter/2 = 65/2 = 32.5 cm

Hence find the length for each revolution:

2π(32.5) = 204.1 cm per revolution

Then for 1000 revolutions:

204.1 × 1000 = 204100 cm ≈ 2041 meter

A jet travels 590 miles in 5 hours; how far can it travel in 11 hours. With an explanation.

Answers

first divide 590 by 5 which equals 118
then take 118 and multiply by 11 which equals 1298 miles. the jet will be able to travel 1298 miles in 11 hours

Answer:

1298 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

In 5 hours, a jet would travel 5 times the distance that it would if it were to travel for one hour. This means that 590 is five times the distance of one hour. So, 590 divided by 5 is 118, so the jet travels 118 miles in one hour(this is basically the speed).

We can do the reverse to find how far it can travel in 11 hours given the jet travels 118 miles an hour. Using the same logic, the jet would travel 118 in each of the 11 hours, which is 118 x 11: 1298 mi.
