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.

Solve 3x – ly= 11 and -2x – 4y=-26 by elimination
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

(5, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

3x - y = 11 → (1)

- 2x - 4y = - 26 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by - 4 and adding to (2) will eliminate the y- term

- 12x + 4y = - 44 → (3)

Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

- 14x + 0 = - 70

- 14x = - 70 ( divide both sides by - 14 )

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (1)

3(5) - y = 11

15 - y = 11 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

- y = - 4 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

y = 4

solution is (5, 4 )

Carmen currently has $5; she makes $2 a week in allowance. Question: a) Write a function C(x) that represents how much money she
aivan3 [116]

For question a) you can do 2 x 7 sine their are 7 days in a week 2 x 7 = 19 so by the end of each week Carmen has $19. in 10 weeks she will have $20 dollars. if in 10 weeks she has $20 wait if it is time two there can't be 35 try 17 cause that's closes so in 17 she will have $36. Same thing Lilly starts with $10 each week she gets $1 a week so 1 x 7 = 7 and since she started with $ 10 she has $17 Lilly must earn 19 dollars to be equal with Carmen. Hope this helps

PLS HELPPPP!!!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIST!!!!!!!!!!
IRISSAK [1]

Answer: C) y=-2+2

Step-by-step explanation: Rise over run says that the slope is -2 and the line hits the y axis at +2 so the equation would be y = -2 + 2.
