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.

there were three apples , 1 mixed fruit, 2 grape, and 4 tropical fruit juice boxes in the cooler at the picnic. What is the prob
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

1/45 ≈ 0.022

Step-by-step explanation:

There are originally 10 juice boxes in the cooler, 2 of which are grape.

The probability that the first juice box is grape is 2/10.

The probability that the second juice box is grape is 1/9.

The probability of both is (2/10) (1/9) = 1/45 ≈ 0.022.

Convert 2x - 3y + 1 = 0 to slope-intercept form
Dafna11 [192]
Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b. our goal is to get y by itself on one side of the equation.

2x-3y+1=0
2x+1=3y
3y=2x+1
y=(2/3)x+1/3

That is the same function but in slope-intercept form.

What is the midpoint of the segment (1, -1) (4, -6)
Sophie [7]
When looking for the midpoint of a segment defined by two end points, the average of both coordinates are taken. Averaging the 2 x-coordinates give the new x-coordinate, and the same applies for the y-coordinate. This is shown below:

Midpoint = ( (1 + 4)/2 , (-1 + -6)/2 )
Midpoint = (2.5 , -3.5)

Bumek [7]

Answer:

Part A: Histogram :)

Part B: Described below! :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

A histogram is the best choice because it can show the numbers for multiple categories in a quick and easy manner :)

Part B:

The x axis will have the categories of quiz scores! The y axis will show how many students got that score.

We then put the categories from smallest to largest along the x axis. We will also put the numbers that go with the categories above the category!

Done! you have made your histogram!

Have an amazing day!!

3 (a) Simplify e+ es
ANEK [815]

Answer:

I don't understand your question but here's some sample of simplify

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify –(46x2y3z)0

The parenthetical portion still simplifies to 1, but this time the "minus" is out in front of the parentheses; that is, it's out from under the power, so the exponent doesn't touch it. So the answer in this case is:

–(46x2y3z)0 = –1
