Hello,

Slope is rise/run, or y/x, and if you are given two pairs of points, this is the equation needed:  (y2-y1) over (x2-x1).

Let me plug in the numbers: (4-(-2) over 5-(-3). And that is 6/8, which then is simplified to 3/4. So the slope of those two given points is 3/4. We do not divide or simplify it into a decimal because slope is a fraction, so we leave 3/4 as it is. 

Hope this helps, and that my explanation is not too confusing!

Hi there! To find the slope, we have to do y2 - y1/ x2 - x1. This means subtracting the first y-coordinate from the second y-coordinate and the first x-coordinate from the second x-coordinate. It would be set up like this: 4 - (-2) / 5 - (-3). When you do this, you get 6/8 or 3/4 in simplest form. There. The slope of the line is 3/4.

A long distance runner starts at the beginning of a trail and runs at a rate of 6 miles per hour. Two hours later, a cyclist sta
yanalaym [24]
If the runner moves at 6 miles per hour for 2 hours before the cyclist starts, the runner has a 12 mile lead at the beginning. If the cyclist is going at 16 miles per hour, he is overtaking the runner at 10 miles per hour, because 16-6=10. Then, the amount of time it takes the cyclist to go 2 miles in 10 miles per hour is the answer. this is 1/5 of an hour, or 12 minutes.

Which graph represents a linear function?
pshichka [43]

Answer:

y + 2x = 10 (third option)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that every time x increases by one, y increases by -2, meaning that the slope is -2.

We also know that the y-intercept is 10 because that is the value of y when x is equal to 0.

Now, we can create the equation using the slope-intercept form (y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept).

y = -2x + 10

If you look at the third option, that equation is just a rearranged form of our equation (y + 2x = 10).

This means that the third option is correct.

egoroff_w [7]
The formula for the volume of a cone, V, is:

V = [1/3] * π * (radius)^2 * height

Here radius = 6 feet / 2 = 3 feet

Height = 15 feet

V = [1/3] π (3 feet)^2 * 15 feet = 45π feet^3

Answer: 45π feet^3
