The equation f equals 9/5 C + 32 relates temperature measured in degrees celsius C to degrees Fahrenheit f Determine whether there is a proportional relationship between C and F explain your reason

Answers

Given:

[tex]F=\dfrac{9}{5}C+32[/tex]

where, F is degree Fahrenheit and C is degree Celsius.

To find:

Whether there is a proportional relationship between C and F.

Solution:

We know that, proportional relations is defined as

[tex]y\propto x[/tex]

[tex]y=kx[/tex]

where, k is constant of proportionality.

So, the line of proportional relationship passes through (0,0) and the equation must be true for (0,0).

If there is a proportional relationship between C and F, then the equation must be true for (0,0).

Substituting F=0 and C=0 in the given equation, we get

[tex]0=\dfrac{9}{5}(0)+32[/tex]

[tex]0=0+32[/tex]

[tex]0=32[/tex]

This statement is false because [tex]0\neq 32[/tex].

It means the line of given equation does not passes through (0,0). So, it s not a proportional relationship.

Hence, there is not a proportional relationship between C and F.

The product of a number and -5 is at least 35. Write as an inequality.

Answers

Product hints at multiplication so -5n is AT LEAST meaning that it is at or greater than 35....

-5n ≥ 35

Answer:

-5x≥35

Step-by-step explanation:

The word "product" means to multiply so I know that -5 times a number x is at least 35. The phrase "at least" means greater than or equal to so I know its a ≥ sign.

Find the y-intercept of a line that passes through the point (-5,-6) and has a slope of 2.

Answers

Answer:

The y intercept is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

-Given point: (-5,-6)

-Slope of 2

1) Put the equation into point-slope form y - y1 = m(x - x1)

With the given, we can plug it all in using this formula!

-y1 = -6

-x1 = -5

m = 2

(you would change these negative numbers into positives because the equation shows them being subtracted! remember that two negatives make one positive!)

y+6= 2(x+5)

2) Simplify

y+6= 2(x+5)

y+6=2x+10

y=2x+4

With y=2x+4, set x to 0 because the y intercept is where x is equal to 0 and you get 4!

Question 2 (1 point)
In a football game, all for the home team's 26 points came from 7-point touchdowns and 3-point field goals. The team scores six times. Write
and solve a system of equations to find the number of touchdowns and field goals that the home team scored.

Answers

Answer:

(2,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1:

x+y=6(for the 6 times they scored)

x=-y+6

Equation 2:

7x+3y=26 (for the 7 point touchdowns, and 3 point field goals.)

7(-y+6)+3y=26(replace x with -y+6)

7y+42+3y=26(distrubite property)

-4y+42=26

-4y= -16

y= 4

Now that we know that y is equal to 4:

x+4=6

x=2

The number of touchdowns and field goals that the home team scored are 2 and 4 respectively

Let the number of points touch down be xLet the number of -point field goals be y

If the team scored six-time, this is expressed as;

x + y = 6

y = 6 - x ........................ 1

If in the football game, all for the home team's 26 points came from 7-point touchdowns and 3-point field goals, this is expressed as;

7x + 3y = 26 ...................2

Substitute equation 1 into 2 to have:

7x + 3(6-x) = 26

7x + 18 - 3x = 26

4x + 18 = 26

4x = 26 - 18

4x = 8

x = 2

Recall that y = 6 - x

y = 6 - 2

y = 4

Hence the number of touchdowns and field goals that the home team scored are 2 and 4 respectively

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the graph of y = 4/5x+9?

Answers

Perpendicular = opposite sign and reciprocal slope
4/5x slope turns into -5/4x
The slope of perpendicular line: -5/4x

Answer:

m = -5/4

General Formulas and Concepts:

Algebra I

The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

m - slope b - y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Slope-Intercept Form (Original):   y = 4/5x + 9

Step 2: Break Original Function

Slope m = 4/5

y-intercept b = 9

Step 3: Find slope of perpendicular line

Take the negative reciprocal.

Perpendicular Slope m = -5/4

If the x- intercept is 2 and the y- intercept is -5 and the slope is 1/3. Write in equation in slope intercept form and standard form.

Answers

Answer:

The equation in slope-intercept form is

[tex]y=\frac{5}{2}x-5[/tex]

The equation in the standard form will be:

[tex]\frac{5}{2}x-y=5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept is obtained when we set the value y=0

As the x-intercept is 2, therefore the point representing

the x-intercept will be: (2, 0)

The y-intercept is obtained when we set the value x=0

As the y-intercept is -5, therefore the point representing

the y-intercept will be: (0, -5)

So we get the two points

(2, 0)

(0, -5)

Finding the slope between (2, 0) and (0, -5)

[tex]\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(2,\:0\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(0,\:-5\right)[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{-5-0}{0-2}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Using the point-slope form of the line equation

[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]

Here m is the slope

substituting the values m = 5/2 and the point (2, 0)

[tex]y-0=\frac{5}{2}\left(x-2\right)[/tex]

so writing the equation in slope-intercept form

As we know that the slope-intercept form is

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

here

m = gradient or slop b = y-intercept

so

[tex]y=\frac{5}{2}\left(x-2\right)[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{5}{2}x-5[/tex]

Hence, the equation in slope-intercept form is

[tex]y=\frac{5}{2}x-5[/tex]

Writing the equation in the standard form form

As we know that the equation in the standard form is

[tex]Ax+By=C[/tex]

where x and y are variables and A, B and C are constants

As we already know the equation in slope-intercept form

[tex]y=\frac{5}{2}x-5[/tex]

so the equation in the standard form will be:

[tex]\frac{5}{2}x-y=5[/tex]

6x-4y+z=1

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

it is more easier because both of them have the same y

Answer:

Use equation (1) and equation(2) and eliminate 4y+z

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-4y+z=-5     ...(1)

6x-4y+z=1        ...(2)

x+y+z=6          ...(3)

First, you find the equation that you can use the elimination method on;

there are multiples of them.

However, I would use equation (1) and equation(2) and eliminate 4y+z :

 3x-4y+z=-5

- 6x-4y+z=1  

         -3x=-6

            x=2

As you can see, both the terms with y and z are eliminated in one step, exposing the variable x.

From here is just my advice:

There are multiple ways for you to answer this question. In math, the process may sometimes not matter if the answer was correct. Nevertheless, you should try finding one way that fits you or makes it easier to solve. I personally think that how I have been trying this helped me later when math got more complicated. (Also, it was fun for me to find another way that I was not taught of)

where the left vertical rectangle is 3x high and x-2 wide; the center area between vertical rectangles is (2x-2)-(x-2) = x wide and (3x-10) high; and the right vertical rectangle is (x-2 +3x)-(2x-2) = 2x wide and 40 high.

As we said, the right vertical rectangle is 2x wide, so the area that has P as one of its dimensions is ...
