What is the equation of the line that passes through (4, -1) and (-2, 3)?

Mathematics
1 answer:
sammy [17]1 year ago
4 0

Answer:

a

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (4, - 1 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 2, 3 )

m = \frac{3-(-1)}{-2-4} = \frac{3+1}{-6} = \frac{4}{-6} = - \frac{2}{3} , then

y = - \frac{2}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (- 2, 3 ) , then

3 = \frac{4}{3} + c ⇒ c = 3 - \frac{4}{3} = \frac{5}{3}

y = - \frac{2}{3} x + \frac{5}{3} ← in slope- intercept form

multiply through by 3 to clear the fractions

3y = - 2x + 5 ( subtract - 2x + 5 from both sides )

2x + 3y - 5 = 0 ← in general form

Are the area of a square and the length of its side directly proportional quantities?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Yes they are directly proportional quantities.

Step-by-step explanation:

We find the area of a square by;

A = length squared or (L)² , where 'L' stands for length and 'A' stands for area.

So Area = L²

Assume the length is a units and increase the length by 2 units

The initial area before increasing the length is a²

After increasing the length, the area becomes: (a + 2)² = a² + 4a + 4

Now we subtract the initial area from the final area and get;

(a² + 4a + 4) - a² = 4a + 4

So the new area increases by 4a + 4 units.

Hence, the area increases as the length increases implying that the area of a square is directly proportional to its length.

We denote this proportionality as;

A ∝ L

Ahmed and Gavin are playing both chess and checkers. The probability of Ahmed winning the chess games is 45%. The probability of
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Option A. Ahmed wins the chess game

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The probability of Ahmed winning the chess games is 45%

45%=045/100=0.45

The probability of Ahmen winning the checkers games is 0.36

Compare the probability

0.45> 0.36

so

Is more likely that  Ahmed wins the chess game

The 4 people in the area overlapped by the Music and Spanish areas are the people who are in both clubs.

Obaid and Abdulraheem are in the Music Club only.

The number of members in the Music Club is these 2 plus the 4 in the overlap area, so there are 6 members in the Music Club.
