A line has equation y=-½x−3
Find the gradient.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

gradient is 1/2  =  0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

y= 1/2 x−3

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

1/2 x−3=y

Add 3 to both sides.

1/2 x=y+3

Multiply both sides by 2.

1/2 x = 1/2 y+3

Dividing by  1/2 undoes the multiplication by  1/2

x= 1/2 y+3

Divide y+3 by  1/2  by multiplying y+3 by the reciprocal of  1/2

.

x=2y+6

In picture there is a triangle with the intersection line in between the triangles.

Triangle PUB is divided into 2 triangles that is ΔPUM and ΔPMB.

We have angles

∠B=35°,∠U=62°,∠P=21°

We have to find the angle of angle 1 and 2.

We know,

In triangle sum of the 3 angles is 180°.

Now, we take ΔPMB

We find the other angle of M.

21°+35°+M=180°

M=180°-21°-35°

M=180°-56°

M=124°

So, now we can find the angle 1.

the straight line has a angles of 180°.

124°+∠1=180°

∠1=180°-124°

∠1=56°

Now, we find angle 2.

Take ΔPUM

62°+∠1+∠2=180°

62°+56°+∠2=180°

∠2=180°-62°-56°

∠2=180°-118°

∠2=62°

Therefore, the angles are ∠1=56° and ∠2=62°.

Order the following expressions from least to greatest.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{a} \quad \boxed{|b - c|} \quad \boxed{|a - b|} \quad \boxed{|a - c|}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The bars either side of an expression or a value are the absolute value symbol.  "Absolute value" means how far a number is from zero.   Therefore, the absolute value of a number is its positive numerical value.  

The values of a, b and c are negative. All expressions except "a" are absolute values, and are therefore positive numerical values. Therefore, "a" is the least expression.

The simplest way to calculate each expression's numerical value is by assigning approximate numbers to each value, then carrying out each calculation.

From inspection of the graph:

a ≈ -3.8b ≈ -1.3c ≈ -0.7

[tex]\begin{aligned} \implies |a - b| & \approx |-3.8 - (-1.3)|\\ & = |-2.5| \\ &= 2.5\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned} \implies |b - c| &\approx |-1.3 - (-0.7)| \\ &= |-0.6| \\ &= 0.6\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\implies a \approx -3.8[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned} \implies |a - c| &\approx |-3.8 - (-0.7)| \\ &= |-3.1| \\ &= 3.1\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore:  -3.8 < 0.6 < 2.5 < 3.1

Hence, the expressions from least to greatest are:

[tex]\boxed{a} \quad \boxed{|b - c|} \quad \boxed{|a - b|} \quad \boxed{|a - c|}[/tex]

Answers

0.6004 is standard deviation of equation .

Why is there a standard deviation?

The term "standard deviation" (or "") refers to a measurement of the data's dispersion from the mean. A low standard deviation implies that the data are grouped around the mean, whereas a large standard deviation shows that the data are more dispersed.An individual collection of data is compared to the average of several other sets of data using the standard deviation. You can compute two different forms of standard deviation: When data are gathered from every person in a population or collection, it is the population standard deviation.

=0.6004$P(120≤X≤153)=0.6004​

The mean is μ=147, and the standard deviation is σ=16.

0.6462−0.0458=0.6004.

Thus, P(120≤X≤153)=0.6004.

find the equation of the line parallel to y=3x+4 and that passes through the point (-5,4)

Answers

Answer:

y = 3x + 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of line in slope y-intercept form: y = mx +b

Here m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

     y = 3x + 4

m = 3

Parallel lines have same slope.

   m = 3

y = 3x + b

Substitute (-5,4) in the above equation.

        4 = 3*(-5) + b

        4 = -15 + b

  4 + 15 = b

           b = 19

Equation of the line: y = 3x + 19

Answer: y = 3x +19

Step-by-step explanation:

-Parallel lines have the same gradient

y = 3x + c

rearrange to give c= y - 3x

substitute x = -5 and y = 4

c = 3 - (3x-5)

c= 19

so the equation is y = 3x + 19

Ian is ___ centimeters tall now.

Answers

Ian is 144 centimeters tall now by solving the equation.

What is an equation?

A mathematical statement called an equation includes the sign "equal to" between two expressions with equal values.

Let Lisa, Ian, and Jim's real heights are L, I, and J, respectively.

Lisa's friend Ian is 4 centimeters taller than her, therefore L=4+I

In the sentence "Ian is 8 cm taller than Jim.": I=8+J, 

Hence, J=I-8 

Thus, Lisa, Ian, and Jim are 4+I, I, and I-8 correspondingly in height.

Since their heights increase by 2 cm every 4 months, this results in an 8-centimeter height increase.

Thus, after four months, Lisa, Ian, and Jim reach the following heights:

4+I+I+8, I+8, and I-8+8 that equal to I+12, I+8, and I respectively

"The total of Ian's and Jim's heights will be 140 centimeters more than Lisa's height in four months" means:

(I + 8) + I = 140 + (I + 12)

⇒2I + 8 = 152+I

⇒I = 144

⇒I=152-8

=144

Therefore, Ian is 144 centimeters tall now.

4/6 of a pizza left divided by the 4 children to feed, means we can divide the fraction by 4 to get how much each child gets, we can divide the top of the fraction by 4 to get 1/6. This means each child gets 1/6 of a pizza.

[tex]13x+45+19x+3=180 \\ \\ 32x+48=180 \\ \\ 32x=132 \\ \\ x=33/8[/tex]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical Angle Theorem

When two straight lines intersect, they form two pairs of angles.  The vertically opposite (non-adjacent) angles are congruent.

Angles on a Straight Line Theorem

The sum of angles formed on a straight line is equal to 180°.

The error made is confusing the Vertical Angle Theorem with the Angles on a Straight Line Theorem.  To find x, we should either:

Equal a pair of vertical angles and solve for x, orEqual the sum a pair of angles that form a straight line to 180° and solve for x.

Applying the Vertical Angle Theorem:

How to calculate the value?

From the information, the average daily profit of an electronics store is $31,435 and the company estimates that 15% is lost each day to returns, with a margin of error of ±4%.

In a random survey sample, a margin of error is a statistical measurement that takes into account the discrepancy between actual and anticipated findings. Simply said, you may determine the degree of unpredictability in data and research results using the margin of error.

The maximum the company can expect for returned items will be:

= (15% + 4%) × Profit

= 19% × $31,435

= 0.19 × $31,435

= $5972.65
