What is the slope of a line that contains the point(-5,4) and has a x intercept of -10?

Mathematics

Answer:

\frac{4}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given we can say the two points are (-5, 4) and (-10, 0).  An x-intercept is where the line crosses the x-axis giving us a y value of 0.

So, we will use the following formula, where m is equal to the slope.

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Now we will plug in the x and y values given above, (-5, 4) and (-10, 0).

m=\frac{0-4}{-10+5}\\ m=\frac{-4}{-5}\\ m=\frac{4}{5}

Note: In the denominator of the first line, the -5 was changed to a 5 because in the original equation, we are told to subtract.  When you have two negatives they cancel each other out.

Hope this helps! <3

Suppose you want to learn more about the heights of the buildings in New York City. How would you choose a sample of the buildin
natulia [17]

Answer:

I'd use a Non-probability Sampling Method.

Explanation:

The question is already laced with criteria - Heights of Buildings in New York.

This means that there are certain buildings that won't fit in the sample. In a non-probability sample, objects or subjects are elected based on specified criteria that are not random. This means that not all objects/subject have a c<em>hance</em> of being included in the sample.

It is assumed that the question/assignment centers around high rise buildings.

Therefore, one storey buildings and bungalows that are within and outside New York will not be included in the sample.

Under the Non-Probability Sampling Method, it is essential to note that there are other subgroupings of sampling techniques. They are:

  1. Convenience Sample
  2. Voluntary Sample
  3. Purposive Sample
  4. Snowball Sample

Cheers!
