Find the change in the y coordinates

7-5=2

Find the change in the x coordinates

1--3 or 1+3= 4

Divide the changes in the y and x coordinates

2/4= 1/2

The slope is 1/2. Hope this helps!

Hello there!

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: $\frac{Y^2-Y^1}{X^2-X^1}=\frac{rise}{run}$

$\frac{7-5=2}{1-(-3)=1+3=4}=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{2/2}{4/2}=\frac{1}{2}$

Slope is 1/2

Answer is 1/2

Have a great day!

Hope this helps!

M<3 is (3x + 4) and m<5 is (2x +11)

butalik [34]

Answer:

Part 1) Option C. Same side interior angles

Part 2) Option A. $(3x+4)+(2x+11)=180\°$

Part 3) Option B. $m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) we know that

If p and q are parallel

then

m<3 and m<5 are consecutive interior angles or Same side interior angles

and

$m$

Part 2) we know that

$m$ -----> by consecutive interior angles (supplementary angles)

we have that

$m$

substitute

$(3x+4)+(2x+11)=180\°$

Part 3) Find the measure of angle 5

we know that

$(3x+4)+(2x+11)=180\°$

Solve for x

$5x+15\°=180\°$

$5x=180\°-15\°$

$x=165\°/5\°=33\°$

$m$

substitute the value of x

$m$

Decrease £1200 by 25%

gayaneshka [121]

Ok well...
1200 times .25 is 300 so subtract 1200-300= 900 is the decreased number :)

Hope it helps! :)

to avoid a large shallow reef a ship set a course from point a and traveled 24 miles east to point b . the ship them turn and tr

Sever21 [200]

First, we are going to find the distance traveled by the ship adding the tow distances:
Distance traveled= 24 mi +33 mi=57 mi

Next, we are going to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance from $a$ to $c$ :
$d^2=24^2+33^2$
$d^2=576+1089$
d^2=1665
$d= \sqrt{1665}$
$d=40.8$ mi

Finally, we are going to subtract the two distances:
57 mi -40.8 mi= 16.2 mi

We can conclude that if the ship could have traveled in a straight lime from point a to point c, it could have saved 16.2 miles.

Fill in the blanks below in order to justify whether or not the mapping shown

Digiron [165]

Basically, it is not a function because 1 domain (in this case, 5) can not be connected to two different ranges(1 and -2). Each domain must only connect to one range.
