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.

After you subtract both sides by 4. How can you solve for 3x in this equation?
Nataly [62]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Once you subtract both sides, the 4 is gone then the 10 is subtracted into a 6. You go to the 3x, and just like what you did to the 4 you do the opposite and divide the 3 by itself and the 6 by 3 as well.

Two math students were asked to write an exponential growth equation that had a starting value of 300 and a growth rate of 2%. P
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Pierre is right

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct formula for Exponential growth rate is given as:

y = a( 1 + r) ^t

Where

y = Amount after time t

a = Initial amount

r = Growth rate

t = time

From the question

a = 300

r = 2% = 0.02

Hence, our exponential growth rate =

y = 300( 1 + 0.02)^t

y = 300( 1.02)^t

Therefore, Pierre is right

If the triangles in the diagram are congruent, what is the value of x?
Natalija [7]
If shapes are congruent, then they are mathematically equal (same dimensions, angles etc.). So just locate where the angle x is on both triangles, it should have a value on or a calculable value on the other. If you provide us with the actual sheet I could walk you through it.
