Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (2,4) and (-4,2)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nat2105 [25]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The slope is 1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope is \frac{y_{2} -y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}  } where y_{1} and x_{1} are the y- and x-coordinates of the first point, and y_{2} and x_{2} are the y- and x-coordinates of the second point, respectively.

Inputting our values into our formula, we get  \frac{2-4}{(-4)-2}. Solving for the numerator first, we get \frac{-2}{(-4)-2}. Solving for the denominator, we get  \frac{-2}{-6}. This simplifies to 1/3.

4. Six workers are hired to weed a field by
user100 [1]

Answer:

594 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle is length times width. We can find the area of each workers plot by multiplying 9 and 11 to get 99 sq feet. There is six workers, and therefore six plots of land, so we'd take our 99 sq feet and count that six times to get 594 square feet.

Help! Based on the given information, what can you conclude and why?
DochEvi [55]

Answer: \triangle HIJ \cong \triangle LKJ

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: ∠H ≅∠L and line HJ congruent to Line JL.

Since, In triangles HIJ and LKJ,

∠H ≅ ∠L

HJ ≅ JL

And, ∠HJI ≅ ∠ LJK

Therefore, By ASA postulate,

Δ HIJ ≅ Δ LKJ

This is why Option first is correct.

Note: Option third ΔHIJ≅ΔJKL is not correct,

Because,  HI≠JK

The rate of change ​
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

All have a rate of change of 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify some things, we're going to be dividing by 10 because that's the separation between each answer. (40-50, 50-60, 60-70, yadda yadda yadda)

From 40 to 50 we have a rate of change of 4, because 40 ÷ 10 = 4, we use 40 because the difference between 0 and 40 is 40.

From 50 to 60 we have a rate of change of 4, because 40 ÷ 10 = 4, we use 40 because the difference between 40 and 80 is 40.

From 60 to 70 we have a rate of change of 4, because 40 ÷ 10 = 4, we use 40 because the difference between 80 and 120 is 40.

From 70 to 80 we have a rate of change of 4, because 40 ÷ 10 = 4, we use 40 because the difference between 120 and 160 is 40

From 80 to 90 we have a rate of change of 4, because 40 ÷ 10 = 4, we use 40 because the difference between 0 and 160 is 200
