PLEASE ANSWER: find the slope of the line through each pair of points. (1,6) and (8,-1)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: -1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope fo the line with the given points, you use the formula [tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex].

[tex]m=\frac{-1-6}{8-1}=\frac{-7}{7} =-1[/tex]

Now, we know that the slope is -1.

you pay 9.70 for 2.5 pounds of roasted peanuts. You buy 1.4 pounds of almonds for 8.55 per pound.

How much less do roasted peanuts cost per pound than almonds?

How much more do you spend on almonds than on roasted peanuts.

Answers

$9.70 / 2.5lbs = $3.88 / pound of roasted peanuts.

$8.55 * 1.4lbs = $11.97 / 1.4 pounds of almonds

$8.55 - $3.88 = $4.67.

Roasted peanuts cost $4.67 less per pound than almonds.

$11.97 - $9.70 = $2.27

You spend $2.27 more on almonds than you do roasted peanuts.

GEOMETRY HELP!!

19. What is the coordinate of the midpoint of the segment formed by the two points you found in Exercises 17 and 18?

Please explain

Answers

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the coordinate of the midpoint of segment QB, first, find the distance from Q to B.

QB = |4 - 8| = |-4| = 4

The coordinate of the midpoint of QB would be at ½ the distance of QB (½*4 = 2).

Therefore, coordinate of the midpoint of QB = the coordinate of Q + 2 = 4 + 2 = 6

OR

Coordinate of B - 2 = 8 - 2 = 6

Coordinate of the midpoint of QB = 6

Coordinate of W = -8

Coordinate of A = 0

distance from W to A (WA) = |-8 - 0| = |-8| = 8

The coordinate of the midpoint of WA would be at ½ the distance of WA = ½*8 = 4.

Therefore, coordinate of the midpoint of WA = the coordinate of W + 4 = -8 + 4 = -4

Or

Coordinate of A - 4 = 0 - 4 = -4

Coordinate of the midpoint of WA = -4

Now, let's find the midpoint between the two new coordinates we have found, which are -4 and 4

Distance of the segment formed by coordinate -4 and 4 = |-4 - 4| = |-8| = 8

Midpoint = ½*8 = 4

Coordinate of the midpoint = -4 + 4 = 0

Or

4 - 4 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  Let's solve your equation step-by-step. ( x + 5 ) ( x − 2 ) = 0 Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation. x 2 + 3 x − 10 = 0 Step 2: Factor left side of equation. ( x − 2 ) ( x + 5 ) = 0 Step 3: Set factors equal to 0. x − 2 = 0 or x + 5 = 0 x = 2 or x = − 5.        <—— this is for the first explanation

2. Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation. 6 x 2 + 13 x − 5 = 0 Step 2: Factor left side of equation. ( 3 x − 1 ) ( 2 x + 5 ) = 0 Step 3: Set factors equal to 0. 3 x − 1 = 0 or 2 x + 5 = 0 x = 1 3 or x = − 5 2 Answer: x = 1 3 or x = − 5 2

<———— this is for the second explanation

3.Step 1: Factor left side of equation. ( x + 1 ) ( x − 4 ) = 0 Step 2: Set factors equal to 0. x + 1 = 0 or x − 4 = 0 x = − 1 or x      

<———- this is for the third explanation

4.Step 1: Factor left side of equation. ( 2 x + 1 ) ( x − 3 ) = 0 Step 2: Set factors equal to 0. 2 x + 1 = 0 or x − 3 = 0 x = − 1 2 or x = 3

<—————- this is for the fourth explanation

5. Step 1: Add 16 to both sides. x 2 − 16 + 16 = 0 + 16 x 2 = 16 Step 2: Take square root. x = ± 16 x = 4 or x = − 4

<—————- this is for the fith explanation

6. Step 1: Add 25 to both sides. 9 x 2 − 25 + 25 = 0 + 25 9 x 2 = 25 Step 2: Divide both sides by 9. 9 x 2 9 = 25 9 x 2 = 25 9 Step 3: Take square root. x = ± 25 9 x = 1.666667 , − 1.666667

<—————- this is for the sixth explanation

3x(x+30°) i really need help asap

Answers

A13x2+390x here is the answer

Answer:

x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

x + 30 = 3x

Reorder the terms:

30 + x = 3x

Solving

30 + x = 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

30 + x + -3x = 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: x + -3x = -2x

30 + -2x = 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

30 + -2x = 0

Add '-30' to each side of the equation.

30 + -30 + -2x = 0 + -30

Combine like terms: 30 + -30 = 0

0 + -2x = 0 + -30

-2x = 0 + -30

Combine like terms: 0 + -30 = -30

-2x = -30

Divide each side by '-2'.

x = 15

Simplifying

x = 15

How to go from a percent to a decimal and please put an explanation and example. If you do not know the answer then don’t respond. I really need to understand this! Please

Answers

Divide a percent by 100 and remove the percent sign to convert from a percent to a decimal. The shortcut way to convert from a percentage to a decimal is by removing the percent sign and moving the decimal point 2 places to the left.

example: 3.25% = 3.25 over 100 or,
3.25%=3.25100
3.25
%
=
3.25
100
3.25 over 100 is the same as 3.25 divided by 100. Completing the division we get:

3.25 ÷ 100 = 0.0325

Therefore, we have shown that

3.25% = 0.0325

Example :When we divide 50 by 100 we get 0.5 (a decimal number). So, to convert from percent to decimal: divide by 100, and remove the "%" sign.

Subtract the following fractions. (Reduce answers to lowest terms.)
3/10 - 1/4=
3/14
3/6
1/2
1/20

Answers

Answer:

1/20

Step-by-step explanation:

3/10 - 1/4

First, convert the fractions to a common denominator:

3/10 *2/2 = 6/20

1/4 * 5/5 = 5/20

Now put them back into the equation and solve:

6/20 - 5/20 = 1/20

Another way to do this:

3/10 - 1/4

Convert the fractions into decimals:

3/10 = 0.3

1/4 = 0.25

substitute back into the equation and solve:

0.3 - 0.25 = 0.05

convert back into fractions:

0.05 = 1/20
