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)

Defining congruent triangles
seropon [69]

Answer:

E -->R

D-->K

O-->O

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you are asking for congruent parts, correspondence is the part which corresponds and is also equal.

Here Angle E corresponds and is congruent to Angle R in these congruent triangles.

Angle D is congruent and corresponds to Angle K for these congruent triangles.

Angle O is equal to Angle O as they are vertical angles across a vertex.

A little help please
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

by solving ;

  • 18 / x = 6 / 10
  • 1 / x = 6 / ( 18 × 10 )
  • 1 / x = 6 / 180
  • 1 / x = 1 / 30
  • x = 30

Please answer number 1 and 2.
zavuch27 [327]

1, a.) The two specific conjectures are in the first image.

1, b.) The two general conjectures are in the second image.

2, a.) Two specific conjectures for this pattern are:

  • The common difference between two consecutive terms is 3.
  • And the given difference is A.P.

2, b.) From our observation two general conjecture is that the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence and the common difference is 3.

For finding its nth term we can use the formula: a(n) = a + (n-1) x d.

2, c.) A formula for the given pattern is 5 + (n-1)3, where n is the number of the term.

Jim had some dimes, quarters, and nickels. First, he counted only the dimes and quarters and found that he had 9 coins. Then, he
Olegator [25]

Answer:

$1.90

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the numbers of nickels, dimes and quarters by n, d and q.

Then: d + q = 9, or q = 9 - d.

Also, n + d = 10

Lastly, n + d + q = 15.

Let's substitute 9 - d for q in the equation immediately above:

n + d + (9 - d) = 15, or n + 9 = 15.  Then n must be 6.

In summary, Jim has 6 nickels, (10 - 6) dimes and (9 - 4) quarters, or:

                                    6 nickels, 4 dimes and 5 quarters

Thus, he has 5($0.05) + 4($0.10) + 5($0.25), or

                         $0.25   +   $0.40   + $1.25, or          $1.90
