To find slope given two points, there is a formula you can use: (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). Y2 stands for the second y coordinate and y1 stands for the first y coordinate. The same logic applies to the x's. Let's assume that (3, -2) is x1, y1 and (4,7) is x2, y2. Let's plug them into the formula.
(7-(-2))/(4-3).
7-(-2)=9 for total y value.
4-3=1 for the x value.
Now we divide them.
9/1=9. 9=m. M is the variable commonly used for slope. Hope this helped!
Answer:
1. Strange
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is (4/5). If you multiply the first (5/12) over and over, you get this sequence.
Answer:
B: 3:8
Step-by-step explanation:
3x8=21
1x2=2
3x4=16
22x32=424
This is the diference of 2 perfect squares. 4 is a perfect square, x^2 is a perfect square, and 25 is a perfect square. The pattern for this is (ax + b)(ax - b). Our a is 2 since 2*2 = 4, and our b is 5 since 5*5 = 25. So your factors are (2a+5)(2a-5), choice C.
