can m ( in a y=mx+b equasion) be a fraction

i got 1 1/4 and.....yeah im confused

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

yes it can

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes, m can be a fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

m in y=mx+b stands for slope, and slope is rise/run, so it most definitely can be a fraction. BUT, keep it as 5/4 or 1.25 when writing it so you don't confuse yourself next time ;)

Next time study more! I know its hard but you can do it keep trying ur best :)

Here are the instruction plz help asap
Part 1
You will need to measure five different people. Record your measurements on a piece of paper. Using a tape measure or ruler, measure the length (in inches) of a person’s left foot and then measure the length (in inches) of that same person’s forearm (between their wrist and elbow). Refer to the diagrams below. You will have two measurements for each person.

(An easy way to measure the length of a foot is to have your subject stand on a piece of paper. Then, trace their foot and measure the outline once they move off the paper.)

To measure the forearm, measure inside the arm, between the wrist and the elbow.




Part 2
Organize your data and find the rate of change.

Create a table of the measurements for your data. Label the forearm measurements as your input and the foot measurements as your output.

Select two sets of points and find the rate of change for your data.

Describe your results. If you had to express this relation as a verbal statement, how would you describe it?
Part 3
Compare rates of change.

The equation below can be used to find the length of a foot or forearm when you know one or the other.

(length of the foot) = 0.860 • (length of the forearm) + 3.302

If you let y = length of the foot and x = length of the forearm, this equation can be simplified to
y = 0.860x + 3.302.

Using this equation, how long would the foot of a person be if his forearm was 17 inches long?

What is the rate of change of the equation from Part A?

Compare the equation from Part A to your data. Are they the same? Which has a greater rate of change? Why do you think the values are different?

Is the relation in your data a function? Why or why not? Could the equation in Part A represent a function? Why or why not? Explain your answer.
For this option you will submit the details from all three parts. Submit your measurements, the table, and description that you created in Parts 1 and 2. Submit your answers to the questions from Part 3.

Answers

Answer:

again please don't just straight up copy it just use it as a base please also i tried my best and don't know if i got it right

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 2

Organize your data and find the rate of change.

I’m sorry i didn’t know how to make a table so i just did this  

Person number 1- Left foot is 9 inches Forearm is 8.5 inches

Person number 2- Left foot is 7.5 inches Forearm is 7 inches

Person number 3- Left foot  is 11 inches Forearm is 10.5 inches

Person number 4- Left foot: is 10 inches Forearm is 9.5 inches

Person number 5- Left foot  is 6 inches Forearm is 5.5 inches

The rate of change equals y=x-0.5

I believe that it's a function because there is a relationship between 2 variables.

Part 3

Compare rates of change.

The equation below can be used to find the length of a foot or forearm when you know one or the other.  

(length of the foot) = 0.860 • (length of the forearm) + 3.302

If you let y = length of the foot and x = length of the forearm, this equation can be simplified to

y = 0.860x + 3.302.  

Using this equation, how long would the foot of a person be if his forearm was 17 inches long?

i don’t know how to type all my formulas and work so i'm just going to say the answer i got the rate of change = 0.86x or y=0.86x+3.302  

What is the rate of change of the equation from Part A?

For Part A i got y=x-0.5 and that part A has the greater rate of change.

 

Compare the equation from Part A to your data. Are they the same? Which has a greater rate of change? Why do you think the values are different?

Well, the values have to be different because there are different rates of change and different linear coefficients; and also each input value will result in a different output value because they all have different parameters as well.  

Is the relation in your data a function? Why or why not? Could the equation in Part A represent a function? Why or why not? Explain your answer.

Yes, it is a function because each input from part A fits well together with the output on the other set, which matches the definition of a function.

does 3,34 satisfy the equation y= 8x + 10

Answers

8(3)+10=34
24+10=34
34=34

It does

Answer:

Let y=34 and x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 8x + 10

34 = 8 (3) + 10

34 = 24 + 10

34 = 34

Hence,3 and 34 satisfies this equation.

The height of a firework shot upward from the ground with the initial velocity of 10meters per second is represented by the function h(t) = - 16t2 + 4t How long did it take the firework to reach the ground

Answers

Answer:

0.375 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

In simple terms, to find the time it took to reach the ground, we need to find t from the equation.

If we differentiate h with respect to t we will get the velocity with which the fireworks is moving at.

[tex]h(t) = - 16t^2 + 4t.\\dh/dt =-32t +4[/tex]

We can now equate this to its velocity and solve for t

10 = -32t +4

t = 0.1875 ( time cannot be negative in value, so we ignore the negative sign)

Therefore, the time it took the fireworks to reach the ground is = 2 x 0.1875= 0.375 seconds.

(We need to account for the fact that the fireworks went up and came down)

Solve the system of equations. Show your work.
y=x^2-3x+4
x+y=4

Answers

Answer:

Answers are in bold

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1A

Use the Zero Product Property to find the x-intercepts:

0=-(x+4)(x-1)

0=(x+4)(x-1)

0=(x+4)

-4=x

x=-4

0=(x-1)

1=x

x=1

So the x-intercepts are x=-4 and x=1 which is also (-4,0) and (1,0)

For the y-intercepts, plug in x=0:

f(x)=-(0+4)(0-1)

f(x)=(-4)(-1)

f(x)=4

So the y-intercept is y=4 which is also (0,4)

Part 1B

In general, the axis of symmetry is equal to x=h in the equation y=(x-h)^2+k

For a parabola, the axis of symmetry is equal to x=-b/2a, so we expand the given equation and then plug in the values of "a" and "b" to get the axis of symmetry:

f(x)=-(x+4)(x-1)

f(x)=-(x^2+3x-4)

f(x)=-x^2-3x+4

So now we know a=-1 and b=-3, therefore we can plug them in:

x=-b/2a

x=-(-3)/2(-1)

x=3/-2

x=-3/2

x=-1.5

So the equation of the axis of symmetry is x=-1.5

Part 1C

We'll use the equation x=-b/2a to get the x-coordinate for the vertex (which we already know is x=-1.5), then plug in that value of x in the original equation to get the y-coordinate for the vertex:

f(x)=-(-1.5+4)(-1.5+1)

f(x)=-(2.5)(-0.5)

f(x)=-(-1.25)

f(x)=1.25 <-- y-coordinate

So the coordinates of the vertex are (-1.5,1.25)

Part 1D

A band earned $550.00 for playing at a concert. Their manager takes 15% of the money earned for each show and the band is donating 20% of the money earned to charity. How much money is left for the band to split?

Answers

Answer:

The amount of the money earned left for the band to split is $357.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount the band earned for playing at the concert = $550.00

The percentage of the money earned taken by the manager = 15%

The percentage of the money earned the band is donating to charity = 20%

The amount of the money earned the manager takes = 15/100 × 550 = 82.5

∴ The amount of the money earned the manager takes = $82.5

The amount of the money earned that is donated to charity = 20/100 × 550 = 110

∴ The amount of the money earned that is donated to charity = $110

The amount of the money earned left for the band to split = $550 - $82.5 - $110 = $357.5.
