Aquality control officer is randomly checking the weights of flour bags being filled by an automatic filling machine. each bag is advertised as weighing 900 grams. a bag must weigh within 1.7 grams in order to be accepted. what is the range of rejected bags, x, for the bags of flour?

Bags are rejected for |x-900| > 1.7

... -1.7 > x - 900 > 1.7 . . . . . . . . . a slightly improper way to write the unfolded inequality. To be absolutely correct, this would be written as two inequalities. Ignoring that detail, this is useful to see that the solution is found by adding 900.

... (898.3 > x) ∪ (x > 901.7) . . . . . . will cause rejection

answer: a rhombus has two lines of symmetry that run through one vertex to the one directly across it. unlike a square, planes through the center of each edge of a rhombus do not yield mirrored sides.

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

let

we know that

the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point when the value of x is equal to zero

so

the y-coordinate of the point a is the y-intercept

the answer part a) is

the value of y-intercept is

part b) find the slope m

we know that

the value of the slope is equal to

substitute the values

therefore

the answer part b) is

the value of the slope is equal to

the general answer is

the slope is

the value of y-intercept is
