y -6 -2 2 6 10
x -4 -2 0 2 4

Answers

Answer:

y = 2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

for each rise of 4 in y

there is a run of 2 in x

m = rise/run

m = 4/2

m = 2

when x = 0, y = 2

therefor the y-intercept, b = 2

y = mx + b

y = 2x + 2

How do you find the mean of 46,37,34,31,29, and 24??

Answers

Answer:

To find the mean you need to add all the given numbers and then divide that by how many numbers you added. In this case, the process would look like this.

1. add all numbers

46+37+34+31+29+24 = 201

2. divide the sum (201) by the amount of numbers you added (6)

201/6 = 33.5

3. and you're done! the mean (which is basically the average) of the given numbers is 33.5

1) Add up all data values to get the sum.
2) Count the number of values in your data set.
3) Divide the sum by the count.

we can convert 5 1/3 to a fraction by multiplying 5 times the denominator and adding 1 (the numerator) to it. we get

16/3

we now need to get common denominators. the least common denominators is 9, so we multiply 16/3 by 3/3 and we get:

now we can add the two:

48/9 + 5/9 = 53/9 or 5 and 8/9

Given: measure 1, measure 2, measure 3, and measure 4 formed by two intersecting segments Prove: measure 1 and measure 3 are congruent. NEED HELP ASAP!!​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Note:

The text below that are formatted in bold and underlined font are the solutions to the missing boxes in your given problem.  

Explanation:

Given that ∠1, ∠2, ∠3, and ∠4 are formed by two intersecting segments, and that:

∠1 and  ∠2 form a linear pair  

∠2 and ∠3 form a linear pair  

These linear pair relationships suggest that by the Linear Pair Postulate:

∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary.    ⇒  Linear Pair Postulate

∠2 and ∠3 are supplementary.    ⇒  Linear Pair Postulate

m∠2 + m∠ 3 = 180°  ⇒  Definition of supplementary angles.

m∠1 + m∠3  = m∠2 + m∠ 3  ⇒  Substitution Property of Equality.          

m∠1  =  m∠3   ⇒  Subtraction Property of Equality.  

write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to 2x+4y= 14 a need goes through (4,6)

Answers

Answer:  4x-2y = 4

This can be simplified to 2x-y = 2

Solving for y leads to y = 2x-2

========================================================

Explanation:

Anything perpendicular to Ax+By = C is of the form Bx-Ay = D

The given equation 2x+4y = 14 tells us that A = 2, B = 4, C = 14.

So Bx-Ay = D updates to 4x-2y = D.

We'll plug in the coordinates of the given point (x,y) = (4,6) to solve for D.

4x-2y = D

D = 4x-2y

D = 4(4)-2(6)

D = 16-12

D = 4

So 4x-2y = D updates to 4x-2y = 4

Optionally, we can divide each term by 2 to go from 4x-2y = 4 to 2x-y = 2

If we wanted to solve for y, then we'd get y = 2x-2

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the half angle formulas

sin(θ/2) = ±√((1 - cosθ)/2)

sin(θ/2) = ±√((1 - (3/5))/2)

sin(θ/2) = ±√((2/5)/2)

sin(θ/2) = ±√(1/5)

knowing θ is in the 4th quadrant, θ/2 will be in the second quadrant where sines are positive.

sin(θ/2) = +√(1/5) = √0.2

Hi everyone, I'm having trouble with this question and I'm not sure how to do it/where to start. Does anyone have a solution to it? It will help me with my future problems on this topic!

Answers

This is quite an interesting problem. I am not sure how high you are in math, but I am going to use calculus I techniques to solve it. First, we need to model an equation. Let P be the total profit and x be every time you increase the cost by $10. If you think about it hard enough you come up with the equation

[tex]P(x)=(200-5x)(250+10x)[/tex]

(200-5x) is the amount of plots you will be able to sell, and (250+10x) is the amount you charge for. So, at x =0

[tex]P(0)=(200-5(0))(250+10(0))=(200)(250)=$50,000[/tex]

This is the initial condition where if we sell 200 plots at $250/plot.

So, this equation makes sense.

Now, let's maximize using the first derivative of the function.

Let's get it into an easily differentiable form.

[tex]P(x)=(200-5x)(250+10x)=-50x^2+2000x-1250x+50000\\=-50x^2+750x+50000[/tex]

From here, differentiate the problem.

[tex]P'(x)=-100x+750[/tex]

Now, set it equal to zero and solve for x.

[tex]P'(x)=-100x+750=0\\x=7.5[/tex]

This a critical point of the function. Let's plug back into the original equation to see what it gives us.

[tex]P(7.5)=(200-5(7.5))(250+10(7.5))=(162.5)(325)=52,812.50[/tex]

You cant sell half a plot, so we need to see what happens if we sell 162 plots and 163 plots, and then compare which one gives us more money.

In order to sell 162 plots

[tex]200-5x=162\\x=7.6[/tex]Plug back into P(x) to see the profit

[tex]P(7.6)=(200-5(7.6))(250+10(7.6))=(162)(326)=52,812[/tex]

Now, do the same for 163 plots

[tex]200-5x=163\\x=7.4\\P(7.4)=(200-5(7.4))(250+10(7.4))=(163)(324)=52,812[/tex]

As we can see, they are the same. So, you can charge either $324 or $326 in rent. But, if your teacher is not looking for a logical answer and you can somehow sell half a plot, you can charge $325 in rent for the maximum profit.
