Answer: choice C) -2/3

The line X is completely straight meaning that the slope of line X is the same no matter which two points you pick. Since we're given that line X has a slope of -2/3 through the points (-7,6) and (-4,4), this also applies to the portion from (-1,2) to (5,-2)

Answer:

C. -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Point L is at (-7, 6), and point N is at (-4, 4). So, the slope of line X between (-7, 6) and (-4, 4) is equal to the ratio of LM to MN.

Since triangle LMN is similar to triangle PQR, the ratio of PQ to QR is equal to the ratio of LM to MN.

So, the slope of line X between points L and N is equal to the slope of line X between points P and R.

Point P is at (-1, 2), and point R is at (5, -2). Therefore, the slope of line X between (-1, 2) and (5, -2) is

What is the power of 15<br> ------------------
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

If something is "to the power of 15" then it means it is multiplied by itself 14 times (one less than 15 as the original number is already to the power of 1).

An example:

So 2 to the power of 15, which we write as 215 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 etc... (so we have 15 written 2's in total meaning we will make 14 multiplications) is equal to 32,768.

Find the x-intercepts of the parabola with vertex (-3,-18) and y-intercept at (0,0)
statuscvo [17]
Y + 18 = a(x + 3)^2 
<span>0 + 18 = a(0 + 3)^2 </span>
<span>18 = 9a </span>
<span>2 = a 
</span>
<span>y = 2(x + 3)^2 - 18 </span>
<span>0 = 2(x + 3)^2 - 18 </span>
<span>18 = 2(x + 3)^2 </span>
