What we need to memorize when finding the slope is this formula:
[tex] \displaystyle \large{m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} }[/tex]
m here represents the slope. I hope this does not confuse you with line m.
The problem here is that we do not have any given points, but we have a way.
If we notice on the graph, the graph contains or passes through (2,-1) and (-2,1). We can use these points to find the slope. So let these be the following:
[tex] \displaystyle \large{(x_1,y_1) = (2 ,- 1)} \\ \displaystyle \large{(x_2,y_2) = ( - 2 ,1)} [/tex]
Then we substitute these points in the formula.
[tex] \displaystyle \large{m = \frac{ 1 - ( - 1)}{ - 2 - 2} }[/tex]
negative × negative = positive.
[tex] \displaystyle \large{m = \frac{ 1 + 1}{ - 2 - 2} } \\ \displaystyle \large{m = \frac{ 2}{ - 4} } \longrightarrow \boxed{m = - \frac{1}{2} }[/tex]
Since m represents the slope. Therefore, the slope of line m is -1/2

While planning a hiking trip, you examine a map of the trail you are going on hike. The scale on the map shows that 2 inches represents 5 miles.
If the trail measures 12 inches on the map, how long is the trail?
Answer:
30 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Scale = 2 inches represents 5 miles
This means that 2 inches in the map equals to 5 miles on ground ;
Hence, if the trail measures 12 inches on the map, the length on ground will be ; x
2 inches = 5 miles
12 inches = x miles
Cross multiply :
2x = (12 * 5)
2x = 60
x = 60 / 2
x = 30 miles
Which of the binomials below is a factor of this trinomial?
x^2+8x+16
This is because the given expression factors to (x+4)(x+4), which condenses to (x+4)^2.
To factor, think of two numbers that A) multiply to 16, and B) add to 8. Those values would be 4 and 4
4+4 = 8
4*4 = 16
So that's how we end up with (x+4)(x+4). You can use the FOIL rule to expand that out and get x^2+8x+16 again to help verify you have the correct factorization.

T is the midpoint of pq where pt=3x-3 and tq=5x-7 find x
Answer: x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
P-----------------------T----------------------Q
(3x-3) (5x-7)
Since T is the midpoint we know that PT and TQ are equal
Just solve the equation: 3x-3 = 5x-7
[tex]3x-3 = 5x-7[/tex]
now move the x to one side
[tex]-3 = 2x-7[/tex] (I subtracted the 3x)
then get the 2x by itself
[tex]4=2x[/tex]
lastly, divide by 2 to get x by itself
[tex]x=2\\[/tex]

Consider the function z(x,y) describing the paraboloid \[z = (2x - y)^2 - 2y^2 - 3y.\]Archimedes and Brahmagupta are playing a game. Archimedes first chooses $x.$ Afterwards, Brahmagupta chooses $y.$ Archimedes wishes to minimize $z$ while Brahmagupta wishes to maximize $z.$ Assuming that Brahmagupta will play optimally, what value of $x$ should Archimedes choose?
Answer: -3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Expanding z we get
z = 4x^2 - 4xy + y^2 - 2y^2 - 3y
= -y^2 - (4x + 3) y + 4x^2.
After Archimedes chooses x, Brahmagupta will choose
y=-(4x+3/2) in order to maximize z
Then
z=-((-4x+3)/2)^2 -(4x+3)(-4x+3)/2)^2)+4x^2
z=8x^2+6x+9/4
To minimize this expression, Archimedes should choose x=-3/8

Answer:
rightacuteobtuserightobtuseStep-by-step explanation:
When the same problem is repeated, I like to solve it using a spreadsheet. That way, the formulas only need to be entered once, and the arithmetic is (almost) guaranteed to be done correctly.
A "form factor" computed from side lengths can be used to determine the type of triangle. Where 'c' is the long side, that factor can be computed as ...
f = a² +b² -c²
and interpreted as follows:
f = 0, right trianglef > 0, acute trianglef < 0, obtuse triangle(The sign of f matches the sign of the cosine of the largest angle computed using the law of cosines.)
Of course, a right triangle can also be identified by looking at the slopes of the sides of the triangle. If any pair of slopes has a product that is -1, or if any pair is 0 and "undefined", then the triangle will be a right triangle.

The attached spreadsheet is designed to accommodate a number of different problem requirements. It shows both side lengths and slopes, and it shows the "form factor" as described above. The final classification is shown at far right.

Kenji simplifies 3^5 x 4^ 5and gets the result 12^10, but Darlene is not sure. Is Kenji correct? Justify your answer.
That's a question about exponentiation.
Answer:
Kenji is wrong because he does not aply the porperty correctly.
Step-by-step explanation:
A exponetiation has this form:
[tex]\boxed{a^b}[/tex]
a is the base
b is the power or exponent
To understand that situation it's important to know a property about exponentiation. When we have a multiplication with the same exponent and diferent bases, the result is the multiplication of the bases with the same exponent. Let's see this above, in mathematical language:
[tex]\boxed{a^b \cdot c^b = (a\cdot c) ^b}[/tex]
Examples:
[tex]2^3 \cdot 8^3 = (2 \cdot 8) ^3 = 16^3[/tex][tex]10^9 \cdot 23^9 = (10 \cdot 23) ^9 = 230^9[/tex]Now, we can say why Kenji is wrong. It's easy simplify [tex]3^5 \cdot 4^5[/tex]! We know that the result is [tex](3 \cdot 4) ^5 = 12^5[/tex], but Kenji multiplied the bases and added the exponents, that's why he is wrong.
I hope I've helped. ^^

Linda leaves the school to go home. She walks 7 blocks south and then 9 blocks east. how far is Linda from her office?
A.8 blocks
B.11.5 blocks
C.20 blocks
D.14 blocks
Answer:
B. 11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
That missing length can be solved via the equation a^2+b^2=c^2, where the hypotenuse is c. We know A and B, which is 7 and 9.
7^2+9^2=130
sqrt 130 is 11.4017543
Here, you kinda have to break the rules of rounding to say that it is B.

What are the zeroes of f(x) = x2 - X - 2?
x= -2,1
x = 2, -1
x= -2, -1
x = 2,1
Answer:
x=2 x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x^2 - X - 2
0= x^2 -x-2
Factor
0 =(x-2)(x+1)
Using the zero product property
x-2 =0 x+1 =0
x=2 x=-1
Answer:
x=2, -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We want to find the zeros of this function: f(x)=x²-x-2
The zeros are the values of x that will make f(x)=0
So that means in order to find the zeros, set f(x) as 0
In that case,
x²-x-2=0
Now let's solve the quadratic equation
We can do it by factoring
-x is the sum of two numbers, while -2 is the product of those two same numbers
Now think: which two numbers add up to -1, but multiply to get -2?
Those numbers are -2 and 1
Now factor the polynomial by FOIL:
(x-2)(x+1)=0
Split and solve
x-2=0
x=2
x+1=0
x=-1
The zeros are x=2, -1
Hope this helps!

A town recently dismissed 8 employees in order to meet their new budget reductions. The town had 9 employees over 50 years of age and 16 under 50. If the dismissed employees were selected at random, what is the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50? Express your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to four decimal places.
Answer:
The probability that at least 7 employees were over 50 is 0.0073%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a town recently dismissed 8 employees in order to meet their new budget reductions, and the town had 9 employees over 50 years of age and 16 under 50, if the dismissed employees were selected at random, to determine what is the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50, the following calculation must be performed:
9/25 x 8/24 x 7/23 x 6/22 x 5/21 x 4/20 x 3/19 = X
0.36 x 0.33 x 0.304 x 0.272 x 0.238 x 0.2 x 0.157 = X
0.000073 = X
100X = 0.0073
Therefore, the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50 is 0.0073%.

A department store mails a customer satisfaction survey to people who make credit card purchases at the store. This month, 3521 people made credit card purchases. Surveys are mailed to 278 of these people, chosen at random, and 172 people return the survey form. Identify the population and the sample.
Answer:
The population is the population of 3521 people who made credit card purchases.
The sample is the 172 people who returned the survey form.
Step-by-step explanation:
Department mails customers satisfactions forms to those who make credit cards purchase at the store, totaling 3521 people. Thus, the population is the population of 3521 people who made credit card purchases.
Surveys are mailed to 278 of these people, chosen at random, and 172 people return the survey form.
Thus the sample, that is, those from whom the data will be taken and expanded to the rest of the population, is the 172 people who returned the survey form.
The population is all 3521 people who made credit card purchases.
The sample is the 172 people who returned the survey form.

Given the parabola below, find the endpoints of the latus rectum. (x-2)^2=-20(y+2)
Answer:
The endpoints of the latus rectum are [tex](12, -7)[/tex] and [tex](-8, -7)[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
A parabola with vertex at point [tex]C(x, y) = (h,k)[/tex] and whose axis of symmetry is parallel to the y-axis is defined by the following formula:
[tex](x-h)^{2} = 4\cdot p \cdot (y-k)[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]y[/tex] - Independent variable.
[tex]x[/tex] - Dependent variable.
[tex]p[/tex] - Distance from vertex to the focus.
[tex]h[/tex], [tex]k[/tex] - Coordinates of the vertex.
The coordinates of the focus are represented by:
[tex]F(x,y) = (h, k+p)[/tex] (2)
The latus rectum is a line segment parallel to the x-axis which contains the focus. If we know that [tex]h = 2[/tex], [tex]k = -2[/tex] and [tex]p = -5[/tex], then the latus rectum is between the following endpoints:
By (2):
[tex]F(x,y) = (2, -2-5)[/tex]
[tex]F(x,y) = (2,-7)[/tex]
By (1):
[tex](x-2)^{2} = -20\cdot (-7+2)[/tex]
[tex](x-2)^{2} = 100[/tex]
[tex]x - 2 = \pm 10[/tex]
There are two solutions:
[tex]x_{1} = 2 + 10[/tex]
[tex]x_{1} = 12[/tex]
[tex]x_{2} = 2-10[/tex]
[tex]x_{2} = -8[/tex]
Hence, the endpoints of the latus rectum are [tex](12, -7)[/tex] and [tex](-8, -7)[/tex].

Find the volume of the solid whose base is the region in the first quadrant bounded by y=x^4, y=1 and the y-axis and whose cross-sections perpendicular to the x axis are semicircles.
The base of the solid - call it B - is the set of points
B = {(x, y) : 0 ≤ x ≤ 1 and x ⁴ ≤ y ≤ 1}
Recall the area of a circle with radius r is πr ²; in terms of the diameter d = 2r, the area is π (d/2)² = π/4 d ². Then the area of a semicircle with the same diamater is half of this, π/8 d ².
Cross sections of the solid in question are semicircles arranged perpendicular to the x-axis, which means the diameters of each cross section corresponds to the vertical distance between y = x ⁴ and y = 1 for any given values of x between 0 and 1. So d = 1 - x ⁴, which makes the area of each cross section come out to π/8 (1 - x ⁴)².
Split up the solid into very thin cross sections with "base" area π/8 (1 - x ⁴)² and thickness ∆x. Take the sum of these half-cylinders' volumes, then let ∆x converge to 0. In short, we get the total volume by integrating,
[tex]\displaystyle \int_0^1\frac\pi8(1-x^4)^2\,\mathrm dx = \frac\pi8\int_0^1(1-2x^4+x^8)\,\mathrm dx = \boxed{\frac{4\pi}{45}}[/tex]

A map has a scale in which 1.25 inches represents 250 miles.
How many miles does 1 inch represent?
Answer: 200 miles
Work Shown:
(1.25 inches)/(250 miles) = (1 inch)/(x miles)
(1.25)/(250) = 1/x
1.25x = 250*1 ..... cross multiplication
1.25x = 250
x = 250/(1.25)
x = 200 miles
