What is the slope of the line represented by the equation 2x + 3y= -12. (A)- 3/2. (B)-2/3. (C) 2/3. (D) 3/2

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we need to rearrange the equation into slope intercept form:

[tex]2x + 3y = -12[/tex]

subtract 2x on both sides:

[tex]3y = -2x-12[/tex]

divide 3 on both sides:

[tex]y = \frac{-2}{3} x + 4[/tex]

Finally, we get it in the form y = mx + b. We know that in that form, m is the slope so that means, the slope is -2/3

Answer 2
Answer:
-2/3

Explanation:
The equation in the question is written in the standard form of a linear equation.

Standard form: Ax+By=C

A, B and C don’t have any direct interpretation on a graph, so we can’t identify the slope or really any information about the line when the equation is in standard form.

To identify the slope from an equation, we have to change it to slope-intercept form.

Slope-intercept form: y=mx+b

Here’s what the variables mean:

Y= the y-coordinate
M=the slope
X=the x-coordinate
B= the y-intercept (the point on the line that intercepts the y-axis)

1) Rearrange the equation
2x+3y=-12
Subtract both sides by 2x to isolate 3y
-2x+2x+3y=-2x-12
3y=-2x-12
Divide both sides by 3 to isolate y
3y/3=-2/3x-12/3
y=-2/3x-4

2) Identify the m variable
The value in place of the m variable in y=mx+b represents the slope. From the equation above, we can see clearly that -2/3x is in place of the m variable. Here’s a comparison:

y=mx+b
y=-2/3x-4

Therefore, the slope of the line represented by the equation 2x+3y=-12 is -2/3.

I hope this helps! Please comment if you have any questions.

what is the slope of the line shown below?

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

the answer is A because you can tell the line has a negative slope since its going from left to right rather than right to left and then you do rise/run so the rise=2 and the run=3 so the answer for slope would be -2/3

Answer:

-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to find two exact points the use your formula. I used (0,1) and (-3,3).

y2-y1 / x2-x1

Or just use rise over run and count up 2 and across to the left 3 and also realize it's a negative slope going down from the left so your answer will be negative.

I hope I helped you. You can comment if you need anymore help.

Suppose you scored an 80 on a measure where the mean is 65 and the standard deviation is 5. How many standard deviations from the mean is your score

Answers

Answer:

The score is 3 standard deviations from the mean

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, we simply calculate the z-score

Mathematically;

z-score = (x-mean)/SD

In this question , x = 80

mean = 65

SD = 5

Thus;

z-score = (80-65)/5 = 15/5 = 3

3.For many years in the U.S, each bank printed its own currency. The variety of different bills led to widespread counterfeiting. By the time of the Civil War, a significant fraction of the currency in circulation was counterfeit. If one soldier had 48 bills, 16 of which were counterfeit, and another soldier had 39 bills, 13 of which were counterfeit, make a conjecture about what fraction of bills were counterfeit at the time of the Civil War.

Answers

Answer:

1.   [tex]n: n^3 > 0[/tex] is not true for negative integers

2.  [tex]45\ and\ 45[/tex] show that all angles do not have different measure

3.  [tex]Fraction = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (1):

[tex]n: n^3 > 0[/tex]

Take

[tex]n = -1[/tex]

[tex]-1^3 = -1[/tex]

[tex]n: n^3 > 0[/tex] is not true for negative integers

Solving (2):

The angles of a right angled triangle are:

[tex]45, 45\ and\ 90[/tex]

[tex]45\ and\ 45[/tex] show that all angles do not have different measure

Solving (3):

When

[tex]Bills = 48[/tex]

[tex]Counterfeit = 16[/tex]

The fraction is calculated as thus:

[tex]Fraction = \frac{Counterfeit}{Bills}[/tex]

[tex]Fraction = \frac{16}{48}[/tex]

[tex]Fraction = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Similarly, when

[tex]Bills = 39[/tex]

[tex]Counterfeit = 13[/tex]

[tex]Fraction = \frac{Counterfeit}{Bills}[/tex]

[tex]Fraction = \frac{13}{39}[/tex]

[tex]Fraction = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Review the graph.

On a coordinate plane, the y-axis is labeled imaginary and the x-axis is labeled real. Point z 1 is (4, negative 3) and point z 2 is (negative 3, 2).

Suppose z3 = z1 – z2.Which quadrant contains z3?

quadrant I
quadrant II
quadrant III
quadrant IV

Answers

The position of z3 is (d) quadrant IV

The given parameters are:

[tex]\mathbf{z_1 = (4,-3)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{z_2 = (-3,2)}[/tex]

The expression for z3 is given as:

[tex]\mathbf{z_3 = z_1 -z_2}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{z_3 = (4,-3) - (-3,2)}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]\mathbf{z_3 = (4 + 3,-3 - 2)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{z_3 = (7,-5)}[/tex]

When the x-coordinate is positive, and the y-coordinate is negative, the point is in the fourth quadrant.

Hence, the position of z3 is (d) quadrant IV
