Finding the slope from points

Finding The Slope From Points

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

m = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the slope of the line is :

slope = m = [tex]\frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1-x_2}[/tex]

Given that the two coordinates of the line are :

( -1 , - 7 ) ⇒ ( x₁ , y₁ )

( 1 , -13 )  ⇒ ( x₂ , y₂ )

Let us solve now.

m = ( y₁ - y₂ ) ÷ ( x₁ - x₂ )

m =  ( -7 - ( -13)) ÷ ( -1 - 1 )

m = ( -7 + 13 ) ÷ ( -2 )

m = 6 ÷ -2

m = -3

Answer 2

Answer:

m = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two points:

(-1,-7) & (1,-13)

To Find:

The slope

Solution:

Using slope's formulae,

[m denotes slope]

[tex] \boxed{ \rm{m = \cfrac{y_2 -y_1 }{x_2 - x_1} }}[/tex]

According to the question, on the formula:

(y_2,y_1) = (-13,-7)(x_2,x_1) = (1,-1)

Substitute them onto the formulae:

[tex] \rm \: m = \cfrac{ - 13 - ( - 7)}{1 - ( - 1)} [/tex]

Simplify using PEMDAS:

P = ParenthesesE = exponentsM = MultiplicationD = DivisionA = additionS = subtraction

[tex] \rm \: m = \cfrac{ - 13 + 7}{1 \ + 1} [/tex]

[tex] \rm \: m = \cfrac{ - \cancel6}{ \cancel2} = \boxed{ - 3}[/tex]

Hence, the slope of the line that passes through the given points in it's simplest form is -3.

Jordan is planning to buy a vehicle. He has the following choices.

Type: sedan or SUV
Transmission: 5-speed or automatic
Color: red, blue, black, green, or silver
Top: sunroof or no sunroof

Jordan says that he has a total of 2 + 2 + 5 + 2, or 11, possible vehicle choices. What is Jordan’s error?
He should have multiplied the sum by 4.
He should have added only the choices for type and transmission.
He should have multiplied only the choices for type and transmission.
He should have multiplied the choices, instead of adding them.

Answers

Jordan's error is He should have multiplied the choices, instead of adding them. Thus, the correct option is D.

What are the number of choices?

Whenever you have multiple choices, you have to multiply the number of choices you have in different groups to get the final number of choices.

For example, you have to make a sandwich and you can either use white bread or brown bread. Also, you can either use jam or peanut butter or veggies. Therefore, here the number of choices is 6.

White bread and JamWhite bread and Peanut butterWhite bread and VeggiesBrown bread and JamBrown bread and Peanut butterBrown bread and Veggies

Similarly, Jordan has two choices for type, two choices for transmission, 5 choices for color, and 2 choices for the top. Therefore, the number of choices Jordan has is,

Number of choices in total = 2 × 2 × 5 × 2

Hence, Jordan's error is He should have multiplied the choices, instead of adding them. Thus, the correct option is D.

An intravenous solution needs 2 liters (L) of glucose to be mixed with 7 units of blood. How much glucose (in liters) is needed for 30 units of blood

Answers

8.57 liters glucose (in liters) is needed for 30 units of blood.

What is Unitary method?

The unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value.

For 7 units of blood = 2 l of glucose needed.

Foe 1 units of blood, glucose needed = 2/7

For, 30 units of blood , glucose needed = 8.57 liters

Answers

The amount of money that he should have at the closing of December should be $227.69.

The correct answer choice is option C

How to find total savings?

Given that,

Starting amount = $24

And, it plans to save 10% more as compared to the last month.

The amount of money that he should have at the closing of December can be solved using the concept of geometric sequence.

First term, a = $24

Common ratio, r = 1.10

Number of terms, n = 7

So,

Sn = a1×(r^n -1)/(r -1)

S7 = 24×(1.10^7 -1)/(1.10 -1)

= (24×0.948717) / 0.10

= $227.69

The total amount Cory will have saved by the end of December is approximately $227.69

Answer:

  (c)  $227.69

Step-by-step explanation:

The amounts Cory will be adding to his account comprise a geometric series with first term $24 and each successive term 10% more, or 1.10 times the previous term. The total amount Cory will have saved by the end of December is the sum of 7 terms of the series.

__

sum of geometric series

The sum of ...

  24 +1.10×24 +1.10²×24 +... +1.10⁶×24

is given by the formula ...

  Sn = a1×(r^n -1)/(r -1)

where a1 is the first term (24), and r is the common ratio (1.10).

formula application

For the series representing Cory's deposits, we have ...

  S7 = 24×(1.10^7 -1)/(1.10 -1) = 24×0.948717/0.10 ≈ 227.69

At the end of December, Cory will have about $227.69.
