HELP MATH FINAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Which is not true about x=27 a) it intersects the axis at 2 b) its slope is undefined c) it is horizontal d) it is vertical Simplify using the distributive property -2(3x-4) if y varies directly as x and y and y=36 when x=18, find the constant of variation and write the variation equation for this find the slope of a line through the points (1,-8) and (-3,2) which is the independent variable in this situation? the cost of a long distance telephone call increases with the number of minutes of the call
hmm.... seems to me that it would be b but let me double check
"Which is not true" so how can there only be 1 right?
true*
x=27 means a vertical line at x=27 for every y
yes it does
so it does not intesept at x=2 its slope is not undefined and it not horizontal
yes but the question asks for 1 wrong answer so.....
unless im missing something here :/
-2(3x-4) When using the distributive property, we're just going to distribute the -2 to 3x and -4. So, -2*3x and -2*-4 gives us: -6x+8
wait what :/ @Butterfly16
x=27 is a vertical line whose slope is undefined. So that means that choice A is untrue and choice c is also untrue. Must be a typo somewhere.
no typo got it right off the test
yes its probably a typo because there is only one wrong answer, i mean untrue
im confused :/
the slope is infinite rise
undefined would be if it not continous
ok so it is defined
right?
Then put c as the wrong answer since it is vertical and not horizontal. But it does not cross the axis at 2 either. Could it possibly be that the equation is x = 2?
i would go with c too, since its the most obvious one
Interesting.
ya interesting ...
