3y-5x=10

Isolate y

3y=5x+10
y=5/3x+10/3

Compare to slope intercept form y=mx+b

Answer:

$\dfrac{5}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the gradient (slope) of the given linear relation, use arithmetic operations to isolate y:

Given relation:

$3y-5x=10$

Add 5x to both sides:

$\implies 3y-5x+5x=10+5x$

$\implies 3y=5x+10$

Divide both sides by 3:

$\implies \dfrac{3y}{3}=\dfrac{5}{3}x+\dfrac{10}{3}$

$\implies y=\dfrac{5}{3}x+\dfrac{10}{3}$

Slope-intercept form of a linear equation

$y = mx+b$

where:

m is the slope (gradient)
b is the y-intercept

Comparing the rewritten equation with the slope-intercept formula, the gradient (slope) of the given linear relation is ⁵/₃.

The length of segment XY is 9 cm. Which statements regarding triangle XYZ are correct? Check all that apply.

Dominik [7]

Answer-

YZ = 9 cm
$XZ=9\sqrt2$
XZ is the longest segment in triangle XYZ.

Solution-

Triangle XYZ is a right angle triangle with ∠Y=90°

Triangle XYZ is also an isosceles triangle, as

∠X =45°= ∠Z

Therefore, triangle XYZ is a right angle isosceles triangle.

So,

XY = YZ = 9 cm

Applying Pythagoras theorem,

$\Rightarrow XZ^2=XY^2+YZ^2\\\\\Rightarrow XZ^2=9^2+9^2\\\\\Rightarrow XZ^2=2\times 9^2\\\\\Rightarrow XZ=\sqrt{2\times 9^2}=9\sqrt2$

In a right angle triangle, always the hypotenuse is the largest. So XZ is the longest segment in triangle XYZ.

Given the points P(2,-1) and Q(-9,-6), what are the coordinates of the point on directed line segment PQ that partitions PQ in t

gayaneshka [121]

ANSWER

$( - \frac{23}{5} , - 4)$

EXPLANATION

Given the points P(2,-1) and Q(-9,-6),the coordinates of the point that partition the directed line segment PQ in the ratio 3:2 is given by

$x = \frac{ mx_2+nx_1}{m + n}$

$y= \frac{ my_2+ny_1}{m + n}$

Where m=3 and n=2

$x = \frac{ 3 ( - 9)+2(2)}{3+ 2}$

$x = \frac{ - 23}{5}$

$y= \frac{ 3( - 6)+2( - 1)}{3 + 2}$

$y= \frac{ - 20}{5} = - 4$

The point is

$( - \frac{23}{5} , - 4)$
