Slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (8-2)/(3-1) = 6/2 = 3. So the answer is c.

Answer: m=3

Step-by-step explanation: Slope is equal to the change in y over the change in x, or rise over run. The change in x is equal to the difference in x-coordinates (also called run), and the change in y is equal to the difference in y-coordinates (also called rise). The formula to solve this is m=y2-y1/x2-x1. then you substitute in the values of x and y into the equation to find the slope. now your problem should look like this... m=8-(2)/3-(1)... Then you simplify. simplify both numerator and denominator which should leave you with... m=6/2... then you just divide and get m=3

ABCD is a square. M is the midpoint of BC and N is the midpoint of CD. A point is selected at random in the square. Calculate th

almond37 [142]

Answer:

1/8 or 0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of the sides of the square ABCD.

Therefore, the length of CN and CM is x/2.

The area of the triangle MCN is:

$A_t = \frac{0.5x*0.5x}{2}=\frac{x^2}{8}$

The area of the square ABCD is:

$A_s =x*x =x^2$

Thus, the probability that a random point lies in the triangle MCN is:

$P=\frac{A_t}{A_s}=\frac{\frac{x^2}{8}}{x^2}=\frac{1}{8}=0.125$

The probability that the point will lie in the triangle MCN is 1/8 or 0.125.

I need help solving this problem.

madam [21]

(f+g-k)(x) means to add the equations f(x) and g(x) then subtract k(x)

2x^2 + 3x + 4x - 9 = 2x^2 +7x -9

2x^2 + 7x - 9 - x^2 -7x = x^2 -9

The answer is : x^2 - 9

What is included between two congruent sides in an isoceles triangle

Wittaler [7]

In an isosceles triangle that has exactly two equal sides, the equal sides are called legs and the third side is called the base. The angle included by the legs is called the vertex angle and the angles that have the base as one of their sides are called the base angles.
