Find the missing value so that the two points have a slope of -3/10 (x,-8) and (-5,-5)

Mathematics

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is given by

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

-3/10 = (-5--8)/(-5-x)

-3/10 = (-5+8)/(-5-x)

Using cross multiplication

-3 (-5-x) = 10*(-5+8)

Simplify

-3(-5-x) =10(3)

Divide by -3

-3/-3(-5-x) =10(3)/-3

-5-x = -10

Add 5 to each side

-5-x+5 = -10+5

-x=-5

Divide by -1

x=5

What is the slope of the line that contains the points (-2, 7) and (2, 3)?
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope formula when given two points

m= ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( 3-7)/(2 - -2)

   = (3-7)/( 2+2)

   = -4/4

    = -1

(Geometry) PART A Find the value of X.
guapka [62]

Answer:

Part A: The answer is B.

As vertically opposite angles are equal

x+10=4x-35

10=3x-35

45=3x

x=15

Part B: The answer is D.

We'll substitute in the value of X in one equation.

x+10

=15+10

=25

As the two angles are equal bot must be 25 degrees.

A new cream was developed to reduce the irritation caused by poison ivy. To test the effectiveness, researchers put an ad online
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Single Blind (option 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The subjects don't know which cream they have but the technicians do.

If the subject knows which cream they have then they can be influenced by the placebo effect. If they don't know but the technicians do then the technicians will be able to look at unbiased responses from the subjects and tell if it works or not. If the technicians don't know which cream each subject has then they won't be able to learn anything from the responses. The technicians need to know which cream each subject has and the subjects can't know which cream they had.
