Just convert to standard form using Ax + By = C = -(A/B) where A = -9 and B = 5.
m = -9/1 which translates to -9.
Our slope is -9.

Answer:

Slope= -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that functions in the form of the slope are represented like this:

Y=mx+c

The function that is given to us just moves C of place, and the m is the number that is located right aside of the variable x, so the slope is -9, this is how much would the graph will grow or decrease with the increase on the value of the variable x.

Cynthia has a photo frame that has a circumference of 56.52cm. What is the radius of the photo frame
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer: 9cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of a circle is given as: = 2πr

where,

π = 3.142

r = radius = unknown

Since circumference = 56.52cm, we'll slot it into the formula which will be:

Circumference = 2πr

2πr = 56.52

2 × 3.142 × r = 56.52

6.284r = 56.52

r = 56.52 / 6.284

r = 8.99

r = 9cm approximately

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two legs that have the same length. The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of all sides of the triangle. Now taking this into account, we know that:

2L + B = 14 units

Where:

L is the measure of one leg

B is the measure of the base

Since two legs are the same and the base is 1 less, this means the measure of each leg would be:

B = L -1

Now we have two equations:

2L + B = 14 units

B = L- 1

We plug one equation into the other and make 1 equation:

2L + (L-1) = 14 units

Get rid of the parentheses:

2L + L - 1 = 14

Combine like terms:

3L - 1 = 14

Add 1 to both sides of the equation:

3L - 1 + 1 = 14 + 1

3L = 15

Divide both sides by 3:

3L/3 = 15/3

L = 5

So the length of a leg is 5 units

Let's check!

B = L - 1

B = 5 - 1

B = 4

Then we use that to solve for the perimeter:

2L + B

2(5) + 4

10 + 4 = 14
