1) What does the slope mean in real life in the context of the problem?
2) What does the y-intercept mean in real life in the context of the problem?
Answer in complete sentences.
Answers
Answer:
1. Growth rate of tree 3 ft per year, 2. Beginning height of tree 5 feet, rise/run = 3/1 = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution is
1) The slope of the graph m = 3 represents the growth of the tree per year
2) The y-intercept means the initial height of the tree , when x = 0
What is an Equation of a line?
The equation of a line is expressed as y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
And y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )
y = y-coordinate of second point
y₁ = y-coordinate of point one
m = slope
x = x-coordinate of second point
x₁ = x-coordinate of point one
The slope m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )
Given data ,
Let the equation of line be represented as A
Now , the value of A is
Let the first point be P = P ( 3 , 14 )
Let the second point be Q = Q ( 1 , 8 )
Now , the slope of the two points on the line is given by
Slope m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )
Substituting the values in the equation , we get
Slope m = ( 14 - 8 ) / ( 3 - 1 )
Slope m = 6/2
Slope m = 3
Therefore , the slope is 3 feet per year
b)
The y intercept is calculated from the equation of line , when x = 0
So , the equation of line is given as
y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )
Substituting the values in the equation , we get
y - 14 = 3 ( x - 3 )
On simplifying the equation , we get
y - 14 = 3x - 9
Adding 14 on both sides of the equation , we get
y = 3x + 5
Now , when x = 0
y = 3 ( 0 ) + 5
y = 5 feet
From the graph we can see that , at 0 years the initial height of the tree is also 5 feet
Therefore , the y intercept is 5 feet
Hence , The slope of the equation is 3 and y intercept is 5

Each unit in the coordinate plane corresponds to 1 mile. Find the distance from the stadium to Pine Avenue. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
The distance is about
miles.
Answers
The distance from the stadium to Pine Avenue is [tex]13.4miles[/tex], (to the nearest tenth)
The stadium is on Hazel Street(the green line). Pine Avenue is the blue line. The distance from the stadium to Pine Avenue will be the distance on the graph (in miles) from the point representing the stadium, to the point of intersection between Hazel Street and Pine Avenue.
We know the location of the stadium, [tex]S=(-6,6)[/tex]
The point of intersection can be obtained by solving the simultaneous equations
[tex]y=-\dfrac{1}{2}x+3\\y=2x-12[/tex]
since both equations are set equal to [tex]y[/tex], set them equal to each other, to eliminate [tex]y[/tex], and solve for [tex]x[/tex]
[tex]-\dfrac{1}{2}x+3=2x-12\\\\x=6[/tex]
Substitute this value of [tex]x[/tex], into the equation for Pine avenue
[tex]y-2x-12\\=2(6)-12\\=0[/tex]
The point of intersection between Hazel Street and Pine Avenue is [tex]I=(x,y)=(6,0)[/tex]
To compute the distance between the stadium and Pine Avenue, we find the distance between the two points [tex]S[/tex] and [tex]I[/tex]. So,
[tex]d=\sqrt{(6-(-6))^2+(0-6)^2}\\\\=\sqrt{12^2+(-6)^2}\\\\=6\sqrt5\approx13.4\text{ (to the nearest tenth)}[/tex]
The distance is [tex]13.4miles[/tex]

Using the tables to answer the question, the correct option is D.
Only table B represents a function
A relation/table will represent a function if each value of x is attached to a unique value of y.
That is, no value of x must be mapped to more than one value of y.
By considering the tables represented
Set A = {(-5, 2), (-8, 5), (-5, 8)}
As clearly shown above, when x = -5, y = 2 and 8. This means that there are more than 1 value of y for a single value of x, therefore, table A does not represent a function.
Set B = {(-5, 2), (-8, 5), (-11, 2)}
As shown above, all values of x have different values of y. Therefore, table B represents a function.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What you have here is called "the difference of two squares"
Difference means subtraction and both 100x2 and 49 are perfect squares.
The factored form of 100x2-49 is
(10x+7)(10x-7)
Because 10x times 10x is 100x2 and 7 times 7 is 49
One factor has a + and

First part;
The difference between y-values following a change in 2 units of the x-value is a constant, and is equal to 1;
The rate of change of the function, m, is therefore;
[tex]\displaystyle m = \frac{2 - 1}{6 - 4} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5[/tex]
The slope and intercept form of the equation of the function is therefore;
y - 3 = 0.5·(x - 8) = 0.5·x - 4
y = 0.5·x - 4 + 3 = 0.5·x - 1
The rule that represent the function is; y = 0.5·x - 1
Second part;
2·n represent twice the number
The difference between twice the number and 6 = 2·n - 6
At least 35 = ≥ 35
Therefore, the inequality is; 2·n - 6 ≥ 35
Third part;
The given quadratic equation is; a·x² + b·x + c = 0
Therefore;

The y-intercept of the graph is -0.5
The slope is -4 ÷ 8 = -0.5
Therefore, the equation is; y = -0.5·x - 4
The shaded area is the area lower than the y-values, with broken lines (indicating < relationship) which gives, the correct inequality as follows;

Find the slope-intercept form of the line that satisfies the given conditions.
Through A(−7, 5) and B(6, 11)
Answers
Answer:
[tex]y=\frac{6}{13}x+\frac{107}{13}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
(x1, y1) = (-7, 5)
(x2, y2) = (6, 11)
The firs thing to do is fine the slope. That is the distance between the y-coordinates divided by the distance between the x-coordinates:
[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]
I marked the points above as points 1 and 2, so you can plug those numbers into the formula:
[tex]m=\frac{11-5}{6--7}\\\\m=\frac{6}{13}[/tex]
That fraction can't be simplified any further, so the slope of this line is 6/13. The next thing to do is to find the y-intercept.
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
Plug the slope and any point of your choice into the equation. I'll use point b:
[tex]11=(\frac{6}{13})6+b[/tex]
Now, solve for b:
[tex]11=\frac{36}{13}+b\\\\11-\frac{36}{13}=b\\\\\frac{143}{13}-\frac{36}{13}=b\\\\\frac{107}{13}=b\\\\b=\frac{107}{13}[/tex]
They're far from clean, but those are the correct slope and y-intercept. Using those, the equation for this line is:
[tex]y=\frac{6}{13}x+\frac{107}{13}[/tex]
You can confirm that this is the correct equation by checking it with one of the points. Plug in one of the known values of x and make sure it gives the correct value of y:
[tex]y=\frac{6}{13}(-7)+\frac{107}{13}\\\\y=\frac{-42}{13}+\frac{107}{13}\\\\y=\frac{65}{13}\\\\y=5[/tex]
That works out.

Answers
Using conditional probability, it is found that there is a 0.1165 = 11.65% probability that a person with the flu is a person who received a flu shot.
Conditional Probability
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
In which
P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened. [tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening. P(A) is the probability of A happening.In this problem:
Event A: Person has the flu.Event B: Person got the flu shot.The percentages associated with getting the flu are:
20% of 30%(got the shot).65% of 70%(did not get the shot).Hence:
[tex]P(A) = 0.2(0.3) + 0.65(0.7) = 0.515[/tex]
The probability of both having the flu and getting the shot is:
[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.2(0.3) = 0.06[/tex]
Hence, the conditional probability is:
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.06}{0.515} = 0.1165[/tex]
0.1165 = 11.65% probability that a person with the flu is a person who received a flu shot.
