Answer:
The slope is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope given two points, we use the formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-4--2)/(2-3)
= (-4+2)/(2-3)
= -2/-1
= 2
Answer:
-7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that slope, m, is defined as the ratio rise to run: rise/run.
Note that if we start at x = -2 (an arbitrary choice), and move 6 units to the right, we end up at x = 4. This is the 'run.' Simultaneously, y starts at 1 and decreases to - 6, a change of -7.
Thus, the slope of the line through these two points is m = rise/run = -7/4
Answer:
x = 3
y = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it gives you x, you need to plug in the number given for it into the equation:
y = 3x - 1
y = 3(3) - 1
y = 9 - 1
y = 8
So now you have, x = 3 and y = 8
The angle immediately below x makes up the third angle of the isosceles triangle whose base angles are 55°. That third angle and x are "vertical" angles, hence equal. The value of x can be found from the sum of angles of a triangle:
x + 55° + 55° = 180°
x = 70°
The appropriate choice is the 2nd one:
70°
Answer:
y=-4-3x
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -3x - 4
y = -3x + (-4)
y = -4 + 3x
y = -4 - 3x
