Find the slope and reduce. P=(-8, 3) Q=(-6, 2) Slope

Mathematics

Lyrx [107]1 year ago

Answer:

-\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope/Gradient = \frac{y1-y2}{x1-x2}

P = (-8 , 3) (x1, y1)

Q = (-6 , 2) (x2, y2)

Slope = \frac{3-2}{-8-(-6)} =\frac{1}{-8+6} = \frac{1}{-2} = -\frac{1}{2}

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the slope is (change in y)/(change in x) or Rise/Run.

The change in y for the two points is: 3 --> 2 which is -1

The change in x for the two points is: -8 --> -6 which is +2

If we input these numbers in the slope equation, we end up with -1/2.

Since we cannot simplify -1/2 further, that is our final answer.

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

-1+(-5)

You are moving down the numberline, then subtracting again because of the negative sign. -(1+5) is how I like to think of it.

So, 1+5=6, and you add the negative sign. -1+(-5)=-6.

The slope of the line below is 2. Which of the following is the the point-slope form of the line?
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:  y + 1 = 2 (x -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form is:

y - y1 = m (x - x1)

Point on the line is (1, -1) and slope is 2

m = 2

y1 = -1

x1 = 1

y - (-1) = 2 (x - 1) or y + 1 = 2 (x -1)

The polynomial 3x2 is a with a degree of .
ZanzabumX [31]

To determine the degree of a polynomial, you look at every term:

  • if the term involves only one variable, the degree of that term is the exponent of the variable
  • if the term involves more than one variable, the degree of that term is the sum of the exponents of the variables.

So, for example, the degree of 7x^{55} is 55, while the degree of xy^2z^4 is 1+2+4 = 7

Finally, the term of the degree of the polynomial is the highest degree among its terms.

So, 3x^2 is a degree 2 polynomial (although it only has one term)

similarly, x^2y + 3xy^2 + 1 is a degree 3 polynomial: the first two terms have degree 3, because they have exponents 2 and 1.

Need help with solving both of these questions for geometry homework.
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

m<R = m<T = 80.5 deg

Step-by-step explanation:

3)

Since WXYZ is a square, <WXZ is formed with a diagonal of the square and has measure 45 deg.

m<WXZ = 8x - 19 = 45

8x - 19 = 45

8x = 64

x = 8

4)

Draw the kite. Make sure that segments QR and RS are not congruent. Fill in the given angle measures. Angles R and T are congruent opposite angles.

The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a convex, n-sided polygon is

180(n  2).

A kite is a quadrilateral, so n = 4.

180(4 - 2) = 180(2) = 360

The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a kite is 360 deg.

m<Q + m<R + m<S + m<T = 360

75 + m<R + 124 + m<T = 360

m<R + m<T + 199 = 360

m<R + m<T = 161

m<R = m<T, so we substitute m<T with m<R.

m<R + m<R = 161

2m<R = 161

m<R = 80.5

m<R = m<T = 80.5 deg
