Find the slope if it exists (8,0) and (0,-2)

Mathematics

Slope formula: \frac{y_{1}-y_{2}}{x_{1}-x_{2}}

Given the two sets of coordinates (8,0) and (0,-2), plug them into the formula to find the slope. x1 is 8, x2 is 0, y1 is 0, y2 is -2.

\frac{0-(-2)}{8-0}

\frac{0+2}{8-0}=\frac{2}{8}=\frac{1}{4}

The slope is\frac{1}{4}.

I hope this helps :)

The slope for the equation is 1/4

ANSWER

C) (6,-8)

EXPLANATION

The equations are:

y =  \frac{1}{3}x - 10

and

2x+y=4

We substitute the first equation into the second equation to get:

2x +  \frac{1}{3}x - 10 = 4

We multiply through by 3 to get:

6x + x  - 30= 12

Group similar terms,

6x + x = 30 + 12

7x = 42

Divide both sides by 7 to get,

x =  \frac{42}{7}  = 6

Put this value of x into the first equation to get;

y =  \frac{1}{3} (6) - 10

y = 2 - 10 =  - 8

Which fraction is equivalent to 2/5?  <br> A. 4/10 <br> B. 2/10   <br> C. 1/2   <br> D. 4/6
Lelechka [254]
Hey there James!

So, just remember, 2/5 is almost half of 1.

When it is almost half of 1, this means that it would have to be 2.5/5

This would mean that 4/10 would be your answer, because it is almost half of 1 also.

Hope this helps.

What is 24.051 rounded to the nearest hundredth? How did you solve it?
4vir4ik [10]
This is like late elementary/early middle school stuff where you learn this.
First off, what number is in the position of the hundereth place? 0? No. 1? No. 5 yes! Now how i learned how to round is you take  the number to the right of whatever you are being asked about and round it up or down. Now if the number (in this case it is 1) is lower than 5, you round down (or keep it the same) but if it is 5 or higher you round up. since 1 is lower then 5, that 5 in the hundereths place stays the same.

The probability distribution of a random variable X is given. x 1 2 3 4 P(X = x) 0.4 0.1 0.3 0.2 Compute the mean, variance, and
Readme [11.4K]

Mean:

E(X) = \displaystyle \sum_{x\in\{1,2,3,4\}}x\,P(X=x) = 1\times0.4 + 2\times0.1 + 3\times0.3 + 4\times0.2 = \boxed{2.3}

Variance:

\displaystyle V(X) = E\left((X-E(X))^2\right) = E(X^2) - E(X)^2 \\\\ E(X^2) = \sum_{x\in\{1,2,3,4\}}x^2\,P(X=x) = 1^2\times0.4 + 2^2\times0.1 + 3^2\times0.3 + 4^2\times0.2 = 6.7 \\\\ \implies V(X) = 6.7 - 2.3^2 = \boxed{1.41}

Standard deviation:

\sigma_X = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{1.41} \approx \boxed{1.19}
