Answer:

y=-5x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

we have

the points (−1,12) and (1,2)

substitute

m=\frac{2-12}{1+1}

m=\frac{-10}{2}

m=-5

step 2

we know that

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equl to

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

we have

m=-5

point\ (1,2)

substitute in the linear equation and solve for b

2=-5(1)+b

b=2+5=7

therefore

y=-5x+7

For what value of x does m 1=90°?
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

x=70

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle 1 will be 90° when it subtends a 180° arc. That means the sum of 100° and (x+10) must be 180°, so (x+10) = 80°.

We assume this is intended to mean ...

... (x +10)° = 80° . . . . . note the ° symbol added outside parentheses

... x +10 = 80 . . . . . divide by °

... x = 70 . . . . . . . . .subtract 10

_____

If the intent is (x+10°) = 80°, then x=70°.

_____

<em>Comment on the numbers here</em>

Units need to be properly specified in problems of this nature. <em>As written</em>, we probably should assume that 10 is <em>radians</em>, and x is a large negative number, about -8.60374 (radians), or -492.958°.

A number of radians is a "pure number." It has <em>no units</em>. The term "radians" is used to signify that the number is considered to be an angle measure.
