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)

Look at all the choices

we know that at t = 0, the height of the rock is 16

choices H and I do not have a value of 16 at t = 0.

H: h(0) = -5.2(0)² + 24(0) - 12 = -12
I: h(0) = -4.2(0)² + 26(0) - 20 = -20

so we are left with F and G

if we take choice F and plug in t = 1
h(1) = -4.7(1)² - 25(1) + 16 = -13.7
if we take choice G and plug in t = 1
h(1) = -4.7(1)² + 25(1) + 16 = 36.3

only choice G works for us since it has 36.3 at t = 1

you could have also put these points in a graphing calculator and then use the quadratic regression feature to get an equation that will model this data
