$\bf slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ f(x_2)}}-{{ f(x_1)}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
average\ rate\\
of\ change
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\stackrel{y}{f(x)}= -3x+2 \qquad 
\begin{cases}
x_1=-3\\
x_2=4
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(4)-f(-3)}{4-(-3)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{[-3(4)+2]~~-~~[-3(-3)+2]}{4+3}\implies \cfrac{-10~~-~~[11]}{7}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{-21}{7}\implies \cfrac{-3}{1}\implies -3$

K-2k=15+1+6k-2 help me

sveticcg [70]

K - 2k = 15 + 1 + 6k - 2

-k = (15 + 1 - 2) + 6k

-k = 14 + 6k |subtract 6k from both sides

-7k = 14 |divide both sides by (-7)

k = -2

If Shawn can read 60 pages in 3/4 hour. What is the unit rate? And how do I use the unit rate to determine the number of pages S

lidiya [134]

Answer:

80 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 60 by 3 to get 20 because this is how many pages he can read in 1/4 hour. Then multiply that by 4 to get 80, which is how many pages he can read in a full hour.

Use the diagram to determine the length LK. A) x2 + y2 B) x2 + y2 C) (x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2 D) (x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2

kherson [118]

Answer:

D. (x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean Theorem or Distance formula to solve this problem. JK = x2 - x1 and LJ = y2 - y1. To find LK, you square the two legs, add them together and take the square root. The solution is

(x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2
