If only two points are needed to determine a line why are three ordered pair solutions or points found for a linear equation

Answers

Answer 1
Two points give you a line. A third point (often called a check-point) is used to confirm the accuracy of your first two points. If all three line up, you have confirmed you have the correct line.
Answer 2

For any two points that we have, we can find a line that passes through them, so the first part is true, only two points are needed to determine a line.

Then you say:

"why are three ordered pair solutions or points found for a linear equation"

A linear equation is something of the form:

y = a*x + b

Where we assume that you know a and b.

Given that case, we can see that we have infinite solutions.

Suppose that you want to solve this for y, then for each possible value of x you will have a different solution, and you can have infinite values of x there, so there are infinite solutions.

Now, what I think you are asking is:

Why we should use 3 points to check if a relation is linear or not?

Well, exactly for the first thing you said. We always can find a line that passes through two given points, but that is not the case for 3 given points.

So, if in a given relation we use 3 points, and we can see that these are collinear, then we can conclude that the relationship gives a linear equation (ideally you could use more than 3 points, but usually is enough)

At Chase Bank, you earned $50 in interest last year. If the interest rate is 4.5% and
your money was in the account for one year, what was your principal deposit, rounded to
the nearest dollar?

Answers

Answer:

$1,111

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = principal amount

x multiplied by 1.045 will equal the final amount

Since 50 was earned, x + 50 will also equal the final amount

1.045x = x + 50

Let's move the x terms to left side by subtracting both sides by x

1.045x = x + 50

- x        - x

0.045x = 50

Divide both sides by 0.045 to isolate the x variable

0.045x/50 = 50/50

x = 1,111.111111111

[tex] \hookrightarrow \: x = \dfrac{1}{5} (y + 7) {}^{2} + 3[/tex]

therefore, the correct option is B

Answer:

x = (1/5)(y + 7)² + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

→ y² + 14y - 5x + 64 = 0

Let's find the required solution,

→ y² + 14y - 5x + 64 = 0

→ 5x = y² + 14y + 64

→ 5x = y² +14y +49 + 15

→ 5x = (y + 7)² + 15

→ x = [(y + 7)² + 15]/5

→ [x = (1/5)(y + 7)² + 3]

Hence, it is the correct answer.

A long distance runner does a first lap around a track in exactly 50 seconds. As she tires each subsequent lap takes 20% longer than the previous one. How long does she take to run 3 laps?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  182 seconds, or 3 minutes 2 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The second lap takes ...

  (50 s)(1 +20%) = (50 s)(1.2) = 60 s

The third lap takes ...

  (60 s)(1.2) = 72 s

The three laps take 50 +60 +72 = 182 seconds, or 3 minutes 2 seconds.

a window is 9ft long. It is x feet longer than it is high. What is the height of the window.

Answers

Length of the window = 9ft
The length is x feet more than the height
Therefore, the height is (9-x) ft

The height of the window is 9-x feet.

Given that, a window is 9 ft long. It is x feet longer than it is high.

We need to find what is the height of the window.

What is an expression?

An expression is a combination of terms that are combined by using mathematical operations such as subtraction, addition, multiplication, and division.

Here, the length of the window = 9 ft

Then, the height of the window = x feet smaller than the length = 9-x feet

Therefore, the height of the window is 9-x feet.

7. If F(x) = f(g(x)), where f(-2) = 8, f'(-2) = 4, f'(5) = 3, g(5)=-2, gʻ(5) = 6.. Find F'(5)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to lay this out in a chart so it's a little easier to see:

F(x) = f(g(x))

x | f (x) | f ' (x) | g (x) | g ' (x)

--------------------------------------

-2 | 8 | 4 |

5 | | 3 | -2 | 6

Remember the chain rule, which says

(f (g (x))) ' = g ' (x) f ' (g (x))

When they ask for F ' (5), they are asking for (f (g (x))) ' when x = 5.

Using the chain rule, that's

F ' (5) = g ' (5) f ' (g (5))

We can simplify using the numbers provided.

F ' (5) = (6) f ' (-2)

F ' (5) = (6) (4)

F ' (5) = 24

I hope that helps!

The required simplified solution of the F'(5) is 24

Given that,
F(x) = f(g(x)), where f(-2) = 8, f'(-2) = 4, f'(5) = 3, g(5)=-2, gʻ(5) = 6..
To determine F'(5),

What is simplification?

The process in mathematics to operate and interpret the function to make the function or expression simple or more understandable is called simplifying and the process is called simplification.

Here,
F(x) = f(g(x))
Now,
F'(x) = (f (g (x))) '
Following the chain rule
F'(x) = g ' (x) f ' (g (x))
Now,
x = 5
F'(5) = g'(5)f'(g(5))
substitute the value in the above equation,
F'(5) = 6 × f'(-2)
F'(5) = 6 × 4
F'(5) = 24

Thus, the required simplified solution of the F'(5) is 24.
