The slope of a line with points (8, 42) and (3, 25) is -17/5

<h3>The first step in graphing data in a scatter plot</h3>

To graph a scatter plot, we simply determine the axis to plot each of the corresponding data

The axes are simply x and y axes

Hence, the first step in graphing data in a scatter plot is (d) Determine which axis corresponds to which data.

<h3>The slope of the line</h3>

The points are given as:

(8, 42) and (3, 25)

The slope of the line is calculated as:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

This gives

m = (25 - 42)/(3 - 8)

Evaluate

m = -17/5

Hence, the slope of a line with points (8, 42) and (3, 25) is -17/5

A stone is thrown at an angle of 30° above the horizontal from the top edge of a cliff with an initial speed of 12 m/s. a stop w

stellarik [79]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. You must apply the following formula:
yo=-(Voy)t+gt²/2
2. You have that:
Voy=VoxSin(30°)
Voy=(12 m/s)(Sin(30°))
Voy=6 m/s
t=5.6 s
g=9.8 m/s²
2. When you susbtitute these values into the formula, you obtain:
yo=-(6 m/s)(5.6 s)+(9.8 m/s^2)(5.6 s)²/2
yo=120.06 m
Therefore, the answer is: 120.06 m

Allison claims that the (triangle)ABQ is similar to (triangle)RPQ, given that AB and PR are parallel. Which of Allison's claims

S_A_V [24]

I draw the two triangles, see the picture attached.

As you can see, angle 1 and 2 are vertically opposite angles because they are formed by the same two crossing lines and they face each other.

Angles <span>ABQ and QPR, as well as angles BAQ and QRP, are alternate interior angles because they are formed by </span><span>two parallel lines crossed by a transversal, and they are inside the two lines on opposite sides of the transversal.</span>

Hence, Allison's correct claims are:
1 = 2 because they are vertically opposite angles.
BAQ = QRP because they are alternate interior angles.

Therefore Allison, in order to prove her claim, can use the AA similarity theorem: if two angles of a triangle are congruent to two angles of the other triangle, then the two triangles are similar.
