What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (6, -3) and
(-6, -5)?
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of an equation for a straight line is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).
We can calculate the slope from the two given points, (6,-3) and (-6,-5). Slope is Rise/Run, where Rise is the change in y and Run is the change in x.
From the two given points, starting at (-6,-5) and going to (6,-3):
Rise = (-3 - (-5)) = +2
Run = (6 - (-6)) = 12
Rise/Run (slope) = 2/12 or 1/6
The equation becomes y = (1/6)x + b
We can find b by enterieng either of the two given points and solving for b. I'll pick (6,-3):
y = (1/6)x + b
-3 = (1/6)*(6) + b
-3 = 1 + b [Now you can see why I chose (6,-3)]
b = -4
The equation is y = (1/6)x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:
In the year 2000, the population of Florida was 16 million people. Since then, the population has grown at least 2% each year. How many years will it be before the state's population is at least 30 million people? Round to the nearest tenth of a year.
Answers
Using an exponential function, it is found that it will take 31.7 years for the state's population to be of at least 30 million people.
An increasing exponential function is given by:
[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 + r)^t[/tex]
In which:
A(0) is the initial value.r is the growth rate, as a decimal.In this problem:
The initial population is of 16 million people, hence [tex]A(0) = 16[/tex].The growth rate is of 2%, hence [tex]r = 0.02[/tex]Then:
[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 + r)^t[/tex]
[tex]A(t) = 16(1 + 0.02)^t[/tex]
[tex]A(t) = 16(1.02)^t[/tex]
It will be 30 million after t years, for which A(t) = 30, hence:
[tex]A(t) = 16(1.02)^t[/tex]
[tex]30 = 16(1.02)^t[/tex]
[tex](1.02)^t = \frac{30}{16}[/tex]
[tex](1.02)^t = 1.875[/tex]
[tex]\log{(1.02)^t} = \log{1.875}[/tex]
[tex]t\log{1.02} = \log{1.875}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{\log{1.875}}{\log{1.02}}[/tex]
[tex]t = 31.7[/tex]
It will take 31.7 years for the state's population to be of at least 30 million people.

The product of two consecutive positive odd numbers is 195.By constructing a quadratic equation and solving it, find the two numbers
Please help
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
x = one odd number
the second odd number is (x+2), as both are consecutive.
so,
x × (x + 2) = 195
x² + 2x = 195
x² + 2x - 195 = 0
the formula to solve this is
x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)
in our case
a = 1
b = 2
c = -195
x = (-2 ± sqrt(4 - 4×1×-195))/(2×1) =
= (-2 ± sqrt(4 + 4×195))/2 = (-2 ± sqrt(784))/2 =
= (-2 ± 28)/2 = -1 ± 14
x1 = -1 + 14 = 13
x2 = -1 - 14 = -15 which is invalid as the numbers are positive.
so, the two numbers are 13 and 15.
Which statement best explains why the sum of the areas of the two white squares in Figure two is the same as the area of the white square in figure one
Answers
Answer:
Statement 1 best explains why the sum of the areas of the two white squares in fig 2 is the same as the area of the white square in fig 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
Statement 1:
In each figure the total area is equal and the area of 4 triangles is equal, so the remaining white area must also be equal.
Explanation:
Total area of each square = ab*ab
Fig 1 has 4 triangle each with area = ab/2
Total area of non-white part in fig 1 = 4*(ab/2) = 2*ab
Fig 2 has 2 non-white rectangles each with area = a*b
Total area of non-white rectangles in fig 2 = 2*ab
As non-white area of fig 1 = non-white area of fig 2
The remaining white area must also be equal.

Answers
The Scale used on blueprint is 1 inches represents 4/3 feet
Scaling is the increase or decrease in size of a figure or object so as to create an image of that object.
Since on the blueprint, the walls measure 10 feet by 12 feet but on the blue print it measures 7.5 inches by 9 inches. Hence:
Scale used on blueprint is 7.5 inches = 10 feet or 9 inches = 12 feet
1 inches = 4/3 feet

Johnny was asked how long it will take the population to reach
complete sentence) Please help.
Answers
The assumption Johnny made is that, none of the residents of the town will live up to 230.7 years.
The given parameters are:
[tex]\mathbf{a =10000}[/tex] --- the initial population
[tex]\mathbf{r =0.3\%}[/tex] -- the declining rate
Population are always modelled using exponential function.
This is represented as:
[tex]\mathbf{y = a(1 - r)^x}[/tex]
Where y represents the population in x years.
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{y = 10000(1 - 0.3\%)^x}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{y = 10000(1 - 0.003)^x}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{y = 10000(0.997)^x}[/tex]
When the population reaches half, then y = 5000.
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{5000 = 10000(0.997)^x}[/tex]
Divide both sides by 10000
[tex]\mathbf{0.5 = 0.997^x}[/tex]
Take logarithm of both sides
[tex]\mathbf{log(0.5) = log(0.997)^x}[/tex]
Apply law of logarithm
[tex]\mathbf{log(0.5) = xlog(0.997)}[/tex]
Make x the subject
[tex]\mathbf{x = log(0.5) \div log(0.997)}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{x = 230.7}[/tex]
This means that the population will become half the original population in 230.7 years.
The assumption Johnny made is that, none of the residents of the town will live up to 230.7 years.

The proportional relationships that have a unit rate that is greater than that of the one of the graph are: the first and third tables, and y = 2x.
How to Determine the Unit Rate of a Proportional Relationship?The unit rate can be calculated as, m = y/x. In an equation that represents a proportional relationship, y = mx, the value of m is the unit rate.
Using a point on the graph, (5, 2):
Unit rate of the graph = y/x = 2/5
Unit rate = 0.4.
Unit rate for the first table = 3/5 = 0.6 [greater than 0.4]
Unit rate for the second table = 2/6 = 0.3 [less than 0.4]
Unit rate for y = 2x, is 2 [greater than 0.4].
Unit rate for y = 0.25x, is 0.25 [less than 0.4].
Unit rate for the third table = 2/4 = 0.5 [greater than 0.4]
Unit rate for the second table = 3/8 = 0.375 [less than 0.4]
Those that have a unit rate that is greater than the one of the graph are: the first and third tables, and y = 2x.
