Can someone check my answers

OpenStudy (abb0t):

What is it?

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

Let me find someone to help you @igivemedalsandfollow! @nincompoop @Preetha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Posting your question first will get you help faster...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

"check my answers and if wrong give me the right ones" that might be against code of conduct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We can not give him the correct answers, however we would have to guide him.

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

Lets not spam this post guys :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@nincompoop This user wants QH Help, where are you?

@amistre64

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@nincompoop Where are you? If we help him, he just wasted his money >_>

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

@QualifiedHelper please be patient.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean hes right when are they anwering in a hour or 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, @igivemedalsandfollow! what did you get for the slope for the values they gave you in this question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well 30.40 divided by two is 15.2 60.80 divided by four is 15.2 76 divided by 5 is 15.2 And 121.60 divided by 8 is 15.2 So the only relationship I see is 15.2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can take any two points: \(\sf (2, 30.4)\) and \(\sf (4, 60.8)\) Slope formula = \(\sf \Large\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

btw i just have 15.2 rn the other one not no morer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct! And that is the slope for Relationship B. And they said that Relationship A has a greater rate. Rate means slope. So which answer choices are greater than 15.2 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not all of them are greater than 15.2 Is \(\sf 14.9 > 15.2\) ? Is \(\sf 15.2 > 15.2\) ? Is \(\sf 15.4 > 15.2 \) ? Is \(\sf 15.6 > 15.2\) ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There are only two answers choices that are greater than 15.2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so just 15.2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and 15.4 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

15.4 is correct, but 15.2 is wrong.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh really

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(\sf \Huge 15.2 > 15.2~\color{red}{WRONG!}\) If however, it was \(\sf\Huge 15.2 \ge 15.2~\color{green}{Correct}\) but that isn't the case.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So what would be the other correct answer? There are two, you already got one of them and that is 15.4 What other answer choice is greater than 15.2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

16.4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Exactly! So C and D are your correct answers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So you were half-way correct. Great job :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank u at least u helped and i payed a dollar and no qualified help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

$2 dollars*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea lol can u help with 3 more pls

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Go ahead, ask away. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think its d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@QualifiedHelper

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Calculate the slope of the points: \(\sf (4,3)\) and \(\sf (8,6)\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wym

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Calculate the slope of those two points: \(\sf\Large\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\) where the two points are \(\sf (x_1,y_1)\) and \(\sf (x_2,y_2)\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1 and 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Plug in the numbers and simplify it: \(\sf\Large\frac{6-3}{8-4}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now, it says that Relationship B has a GREATER RATE. That means it has a larger slope. So the slope for relationship B is larger than 3/4 or .75

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So now we have to find the slope of each answer choice. Which ever answer choice has a larger slope is our final answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Been 20 minutes, @Nincompoop still not here. smh.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ik and is it b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, B is wrong.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For example, let me show you what I mean.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lets pick A. A has a table like all the other answers. So we need to take two points from the table and find the slope of it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok and it waesnt d aither right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait from wat u say c would have a greater slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The points from choice A is \(\sf (2,1.2)\) and \(\sf (5,3)\) Using the slope formula, you get: \(\sf\Large\frac{3-1.2}{5-2}\) Simplify that, what do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ik that the bottom would be 3 but the top 2 3/4 i think idk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1431578396836:dw| What is 10-2=? I carried over 1 from the 3 and made that 2 so we can do this subtraction.
