Answer:

C. 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the equation: $y_{2} - y_{1}/x_{2} - x_{1}$ to find the slope.

y2 is equal to the y coordinate of the second point: 1

y1 is equal to the y coordinate of the first point: -7

x2 is equal to the x coordinate of the second point: 9

x1 is equal to the x coordinate of the first point: -3

So if you plug these values into the equation, you will get:

1 - (-7)/ 9- (-3)

= 1 + 7/ 9 + 3

= 8/12

= 2/3

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope using the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= (1- -7)/(9 - -3)

= ( 1+7)/( 9+3)

= 8/12

Simplifying

= 2/3

What is the value of a? 14 – 2a = 4a – 16

VladimirAG [237]

14 - 2x = 4a - 16

First, add 2a to both sides. / Your problem should look like: $14 = 4a - 16 + 2a$
Second, simplify 4a - 16 + 2a to get 6a - 16. / Your problem should look like: $14 = 6a - 16$
Third, add 16 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: $14 + 16 = 6a$
Fourth, add 14 + 16 to get 30. / Your problem should look like: $30 = 6a$
Fifth, divide both sides by 6. / Your problem should look like: $\frac{30}{6} = a$
Sixth, 6 goes into 5 to get 30, so simplify $\frac{30}{6}$ to 5. / Your problem should look like: $5 = a$
Seventh, switch your sides. / Your problem should look like: $a = 5$

Answer: a = 5

for a stem competition julienne constructed a model rocket the rocket can reach an average height of 545 ft. Find the difference

zhenek [66]

We have the following table:
545-534.2 = 10.8
545-556.4 = -11.4
545-554.0 = -9
545-535.3 = 9.7
write them as a positive and negative rational numbers
positive:
9.7 = 9 7/10
10.8 = 10 4/5
negative:
-11.4 = -11 2/5
-9 = -9
the differences from least to greatest
-11 2/5
-9
9 7/10
10 4/5

How does the graph of g(x) = (x + 4)3 − 6 compare to the parent function f(x) = x3?

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

g(x) is shifted 6 units to the left

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets try to simplify g(x) since has a few extra terms:

g(x)= 3x+12-6=3x+6

Now it is easier to compare the two functions.

We can tell that they both have the same slope, both differs on a extra term

This term tell us that the g(x) is shifted to the left (it is positive 6)

Another approach to the solution is to plot the two functions together by obtaining the crossing points with the 'y' axis and with the 'x' axis

the result is shown in the attached picture
