Which expression is equivalent to StartFraction 3 x Over x + 1 EndFractiondivided by x + 1?

Match each pair of points to the equation of the line that is parallel to the line passing through the points.

Paraphin [41]

we know that

If two lines are parallel, then, their slopes are equal.

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

we will proceed to calculate the slope in each case, to determine the solution of the problem

Case A) Point $B(5,2)\ C(7,-5)$

Find the slope BC

Substitute the values in the formula

$m=\frac{-5-2}{7-5}$

$m=\frac{-7}{2}$

$m=-3.5$

so

The equation $y=-3.5x-15$ is parallel to the line passing through the points $B(5,2)\ C(7,-5)$

therefore

the answer Part A) is

$B(5,2)\ C(7,-5)$ ------> $y=-3.5x-15$

Case B) Point $D(11,6)\ E(5,9)$

Find the slope DE

Substitute the values in the formula

$m=\frac{9-6}{5-11}$

$m=\frac{3}{-6}$

$m=-0.5$

so

The equation $y=-0.5x-3$ is parallel to the line passing through the points $D(11,6)\ E(5,9)$

therefore

the answer Part B) is

$D(11,6)\ E(5,9)$ ------> $y=-0.5x-3$

Case C) Point $F(-7,12)\ G(3,-8)$

Find the slope FG

Substitute the values in the formula

$m=\frac{-8-12}{3+7}$

$m=\frac{-20}{10}$

$m=-2$

so

Any linear equation with slope $m=-2$ will be parallel to the line passing through the points $F(-7,12)\ G(3,-8)$

Case D) Point $H(4,4)\ I(8,9)$

Find the slope HI

Substitute the values in the formula

$m=\frac{9-4}{8-4}$

$m=\frac{5}{4}$

$m=1.25$

so

The equation $y=1.25x+4$ is parallel to the line passing through the points $H(4,4)\ I(8,9)$

therefore

the answer Part D) is

$H(4,4)\ I(8,9)$ ------> $y=1.25x+4$

Case E) Point $J(7,2)\ K(-9,8)$

Find the slope JK

Substitute the values in the formula

$m=\frac{8-2}{-9-7}$

$m=\frac{6}{-16}$

$m=-0.375$

so

Any linear equation with slope $m=-0.375$ will be parallel to the line passing through the points $J(7,2)\ K(-9,8)$

Case F) Point $L(5,-7)\ M(4,-12)$

Find the slope LM

Substitute the values in the formula

$m=\frac{-12+7}{4-5}$

$m=\frac{-5}{-1}$

$m=5$

so

The equation $y=5x+19$ is parallel to the line passing through the points $L(5,-7)\ M(4,-12)$

therefore

the answer Part F) is

$L(5,-7)\ M(4,-12)$ ------> $y=5x+19$

A function is expressed by the equation y=0.3x−6. For what value of the independent variable will the value of the function be e

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

0; 10; 20

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the independent variable

y is the dependent variable

y is dependent on x

a) For what value of the independent variable will the value of the function be equal to −6

y=0.3x−6

-6 = 0.3x-6

0=0.3x

x = 0

Therefore, if the independent variable is 0, the value of the function will be -6.

b) For what value of the independent variable will the value of the function be equal to −3

y=0.3x−6

-3 = 0.3x-6

0.3x = -3+6

0.3x = 3

x = 3/0.3

x = 10

Therefore, if the independent variable is 10, the value of the function will be -3.

c) For what value of the independent variable will the value of the function be equal to 0.

y=0.3x−6

0=0.3x-6

6 = 0.3x

x = 6/0.3

x = 20

Therefore, if the independent variable is 20, the value of the function will be 0.

There are three choices of jellybeans - grape ,cherry and orange. if the probability of getting a grape is 3/10 and the probabil

muminat

When looking at probabilities, two ideas are always true.

1) Any probability is more than 0.

2) The sum of all the probabilites is 1.

Idea #2 works here. (For example, think of how a die has six things and the probability of each is 1/6. So 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 1.) Let G = the probability of grape, C = probability of cherry and O = the probability of orange. From Idea #2, G + C + O = 1. Since we know G and C, then

3/10 + 1/5 + O = 1.

3/10 + 2/10 + O = 1

5/10 + O = 1

O = 5/10

Thus, the probability of an orange jelly bean is 5/10 = 1/2.

the local volleyball team hosts a concession stand to raise money. They can spend $120 to purchase popcorn, candy, and drinks. t

Art [367]

To solve this question, I did an equation:
0.75x + 1.20y = 120
0.75(95) + 1.20(35) = 120
Then multiply:
71.25 + 42 = 120
Now to check:
71.25 + 42 = 113.25
Answer: 120 - 113.25 = $6.75 Hope this helps
