Remember that the slope of a line never changes, so you can choose whatever 2 points you want and you will always get the same slope. Calculate the rise and run (You can draw it on the graph if it helps). The slope is 2/4, which , of course, you can simplify to ½.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The point of this question is to find out the point where two lines intersect. First we need to get the equation of those lines
Slope of line 1:
(Yb -Ya)/(Xb - Xa) =
(-10 - (-14))/(-1 - (-3)) =
4/2 =
2
Use that slope to find the Y-intercept of line 1
y = 2x + b
-14 = 2(-3) +b
-14 = -6 + b
-8 = b
Therefore Line 1 is:
y = 2x - 8
Slope of line 2
(11 - 13)/(-1 - (-3)) =
-2/2 =
-1
Y-intercept of line 2
y = -x + b
13 = -(-3) +b
13 = 3 + b
10 = b
Therefore line 2 is
y = -x + 10
Now we have 2 equations to solve for the coordinates x and y
y = 2x - 8
y = -x + 10
Substitute y out in one of the equations
2x - 8 = -x + 10
3x = 18
x = 6
Plug x into one of the equations
y = 2(6) - 8
y = 12 - 8
y = 4
Therefore the solution is:
x=6, y=4
Answer: it should be 5 if im not mistaken
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
This question you can use simple elimination, can save you time if it's right. Obviously its not A or B as the hypotenous needs to be bigger than the base. Knowing the base is 32, there is not enough room to justify an additional 20 feet, eliminating D. Answer must be C. If you wanted to do it the right way use trig/socatoa to find the missing hypotenouse as the top angle of the triangle is 45, just like the other upside down one.
