Talia wants to write the equation of the graphed line in point-slope form. These are the steps she plans to use: Step 1: Choose

a point on the line, such as (2, 5). Step 2: Choose another point on the line, such as (1, 3). Step 3: Count units to determine the slope ratio. The line runs 1 unit to the right and rises 2 units up, so the slope is . Step 4: Substitute those values into the point-slope form. y – y1 = m(x – x1) y – 3 = (x – 1) Which of Talia’s steps is incorrect? Step 1 is incorrect because it uses a point that is not on the line. Step 2 is incorrect because it uses a point that is not on the line. Step 3 is incorrect because it shows an incorrect ratio for the slope. Step 4 is incorrect because it shows an incorrect substitution of (1, 3) into the point-slope form.

Answer:
Steps 3 and 4 are incorrect because
(a) An incorrect value for slope was obtained in step 3.
(b) The incorrect value for the slope was used in step 4.

Explanation:
Let us evaluate Talia's steps.

Step 1: Select (2, 5) as a point on the line.
            CORRECT

Step 2: Select another point (1, 3) on the line.
            CORRECT

Step 3: Count units to the right and count units up, to determine the slope.
            Units right = 2 - 1 = 1
            Units up = 5 - 3 = 2
            Slope = (Units up)/(Units right) = 2/1 = 2
            INCORRECT because Talia did not obtain a slope of 2.

Step 4: Substitute obtained values in the point-slope form.
             (y - y1) = m(x - x1). If we select the point (1, 3), then
            y - 2 = 2(x - 1).
            Talia's equation is INCORRECT because she used an incorrect value
            for the slope.

The perimeter of a square is 56cm. What is the approximate length of its diagonal?
Nina [5.8K]
4. 19.8
56/4=14
Diagonal of a square is equal to one side multiplied by the square root of two.
Therefore, it is 19.8, being that square root is (in super simple rounding) 1.5.

Pam likes to practice dancing while preparing for a math tournament. She spends 80 minutes every day practicing dance and math.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Part A)

x+y=80

y=x+20

B)

30 minutes

C)

no

If Pam was to spend 60 minutes practicing dance, then she would only get 20 minutes of math. 60-20=40. She would be practicing dance 40 minutes more than math, not just 20.

A local project being analyzed by PERT has 42​ activities, 13 of which are on the critical path. If the estimated time along the
ryzh [129]

Answer:

the probability that the project will be completed in 95 days or​ less, P(x ≤ 95) = 0.023

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a normal probability distribution question.

We'll need to standardize the 95 days to solve this.

The standardized score is the value minus the mean then divided by the standard deviation.

z = (x - xbar)/σ

x = 95 days

xbar = mean = 105 days

σ = standard deviation = √(variance) = √25 = 5

z = (95 - 105)/5 = - 2

To determine the probability that the project will be completed in 95 days or​ less, P(x ≤ 95) = P(z ≤ (-2))

We'll use data from the normal probability table for these probabilities

P(x ≤ 95) = P(z ≤ (-2)) = 0.02275 = 0.023

Workers at a particular mining site receive an average of 35 days paid vacation, which is lower than the national average. The m
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The average of paid time off is the sum of the paid time off (T) of each employee divided by the number of employees(n):

av = (∑T)/n

Thus, av is directly proportional to the sum of T and indirectly proportional to n. It means that if T raises, the average raises too. So, the manager must fire the employees who have the least number of days off, so T will increase.
