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)

A rectangular prism with a volume of 2 cubic units is filled with cubes with side lengths of 1/4​ unit. How many 1/4 unit cubes
34kurt

Answer:

128

Step-by-step explanation:

Method A.

The volume of the prism is 2 cubic units.

Each cube has side length of 1/4 unit.

The volume of each cube is (1/4)^3 cubic unit.

The volume of each cube is 1/64 cubic unit.

To find the number of cubes that fit in the prism, we divide the volume of the prism by the volume of one cube.

(2 cubic units)/(1/64 cubic units) =

= 2/(1/64)

= 2 * 64

= 128

Method B.

Imagine that the prism has side lengths 1 unit, 1 unit, and 2 units (which does result in a 2 cubic unit volume.) Since each cube has side length 1/4 unit, then you can fit 4 cubes by 4 cubes by 8 cubes in the prism. Then the number of cubes is: 4 * 4 * 8 = 128

Say that the economy is in an expansion, causing wages to increase by six percent. if you previously received a monthly salary o
Westkost [7]

From previously received a monthly salary of $1,375.00, Your new monthly salary increase by six percent would be $1,457.50.

What is the percentage?

A percentage is a minimum number or ratio that is measured by a fraction of 100.

You previously received a monthly salary of $1,375.00

Now by economic expansion, causing wages to increase by 6%

Increment of the salary = 6% of 1,375.00

= 6/100 × 1,375

= 0.06 × 1,375

= $82.50

So, your new monthly salary would be = $1,375.00 + $82.50

                                                               = $1,457.50

Hence, your new monthly salary would be $1,457.50.
