Jack and Jill are trying to find the slope of a line segment connecting two points, (x1, y1) and (x2, y2). Jack uses the formula

m = y2 - y1 x2 - x1 . Jill mistakenly uses a different formula, but still gets the right answer. Which formula COULD she have used?

The correct question is
<span>Jack and Jill are trying to find the slope of a line segment connecting two points, (x1, y1) and (x2, y2). Jack uses the formula m = (y2 - y1)/( x2 - x1) . Jill mistakenly uses a different formula, but still gets the right answer. Which formula COULD she have used? A) (x2 - x1)/( y2 - y1) B) (y1 - y2)/( x1 - x2) C) (x1 - x2)/( y2 - y1) D) (y2 - y1)/( x1 - x2)

we know that

the correct formula to calculate the slope is
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
then 
</span><span>if both numerator and denominator multiply it by -1
</span>
m=-(y2-y1)/-(x2-x1)---------> m=[-y2+y1]/[-x2+x1]
m=[y1-y2]/[x1-x2]

therefore

the answer is the option 
B) (y1 - y2)/( x1 - x2)

What is the difference between (Picture 1) and (picture 2)? A. 0 B. 2 C. 5 D. 6
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The difference between the picture is 0  , option A .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two figures as :

In figure A

The expression is 1 + 3 n  , where n lies from 0 to 4

So , let f (n) = 1 + 3 n

Or,f ( n ) = 1 + 3 ×0 = 1 + 0 = 1

    f ( 1 ) = 1 + 3 ×1 = 1+ 3 = 4

   f ( 2 ) = 1 + 3 ×2 = 1+ 6 = 7

   f ( 3 ) = 1 + 3 ×3 = 1+ 9 = 10

   f ( 4 ) = 1 + 3 ×4 = 1+ 12 = 13

so, summation of ( 1 + 3 n ) from n = 0 to 4  = 1 + 4 + 7 + 10 + 13 = 35

In figure B

The expression is 3 i - 5  , where i lies from 2 to 6

So , let g (i) = 3 i - 5

Or,g ( 2 ) = 3 ×2 - 5 = 6 - 5 = 1

    g ( 3 ) = 3 ×3 - 5 = 9 - 5 = 4

   g ( 4 ) = 3 ×4 - 5 = 12 - 5 = 7

   f ( 5 ) = 3 ×5 - 5 = 15 - 5 = 10

   f ( 6 ) = 3 ×6 - 5 = 18 - 5 = 13

so, summation of ( 3 i - 5 ) from i = 2 to 6  = 1 + 4 + 7 + 10 + 13 = 35

So, The difference between the summation of functions f(n) - g(i) is

f(n) - g(i) = 35 - 35

I.e  f(n) - g(i) = 0

Hence The difference between the picture is 0  , option A .  Answer
