In the given triangle, the slope of line BC is (C) -1.

<h3>What is the slope?</h3>

In mathematics, a line's slope, also known as its gradient, is a numerical representation of the line's steepness and direction.

A line's slope is how steeply it slopes from LEFT to RIGHT.

The slope of a line is determined by dividing its rise, or vertical change, by its run, or horizontal change.

No matter which two locations on the line you choose, the slope of a line is always constant (it never varies).

So, the slope of line BC:

Coordinates of BC are:

B: (-2, 6)

C: (4, 0)

Slope formula: m = y2-y1/x2-x1

Now, substitute the values and calculate as follows:

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = 0-6/4-(-2)

m = -6/6

m = -1

Therefore, in the given triangle, the slope of line BC is (C) -1.

Everglades National Park is 225 mi long. What scale is needed to draw a map of Everglades National Park that is 10 in. long?
shusha [124]

Answer:

A. 1 in. = 22.5 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 22.5 x 10 = 225, we can conclude that this will fit the scale needed. B. is incorrect because it is simply illogical in context with a scale and the question. C. is incorrect since 10 x 0.04 is 0.4, which does not equal 10. D. is incorrect since we need the scale to add up to equal 225 mi, not 22.5.

Hope this helps!

-6+14 =12-8x what is x<br><br><br> Show steps please
Leona [35]
<span>-6+14 =12-8x


-6+14 = 8

then

8 = 12 - 8x            -12

8-12 = 12 - 12 -8x


8-12 = -4
and
12-12=0


then
-4 = -8x      /-8

-4/-8 = -8x/-8

-4/-8 = 1/2

then

1/2 = x

so that: x = 1/2 = 0.5


hope that helps

What does 1,580÷25=I know the answer, I need to show how I got it.
ziro4ka [17]
\begin{gathered} \sqrt[25]{1580} \\ 1\text{ and 15 cannot divide 25 therefore, we use the first three numbers to divide 25} \\ \frac{158}{25}\text{ = }6\text{ remainder 8} \\ \text{You have to carry that remainder which is 8 and combine it with the 0 in 1580.} \\ \frac{80}{25}\text{ = }3\text{ remainder 5} \\ The\text{ remainder 5 will also divide 25} \\ \frac{5}{25}=0.2 \\ The\text{ quotient values are 63 + 0.2 = 63.2} \end{gathered}

What is the least possible integer value for which 40% of that integer is greater than 9.6?
lapo4ka [179]
Call the unknown integer x translate 40% of that integer as 0.4x the rest is very straight forward: 0.4x > 9.6 divid both sides of the inequality by 0.4 to find that x > 24 The question specifically says greater (not greater than or equal to) so the correct answer is 25 witch is D
