Hello!


To find the slope of a line, you divide the differences in the y-values by the differences in the x-values as shown below.


\frac{5-8}{5-8} =\frac{3}{3} = 1


Our slope is 1.


I hope this helps!

The slope simplifies to 1:


Using the slope equation, which is y2 - y1/x2 - x1, we can find the answer

5 - 8 / 5 - 8 = -3 / -3


Of course, -3 divided by -3 is 1 when simplified.

Which equations below represent lines that are perpendicular to the line that contains (1, -2) and (3, 4)? (CHECK PICS FOR ANSWE
Gala2k [10]

First, let's find the slope of the line from the points given.

m = (4 - - 2) / (3 - 1)

m = 6 / 2

m = 3

Secondly, we know that a line perpendicular to the original must have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of the original. For the given points, the opposite reciprocal slope would be -1/3.

Now, we can put all of the equations below into slope intercept form and find the ones that have a slope of -1/3.

Equation 1: Correct

y = -1/3x - 5

Equation 2: Incorrect

y = 3x - 3

Equation 3: Incorrect

y - 2 = 3(x + 1)

y - 2 = 3x + 1

y = 3x + 2

Equation 4: Correct

x + 3y = 9

3y = -x + 9

y = -1/3x + 3

Equation 5: Incorrect

3x + y = -5

y = -3x - 5

Hope this helps!! :)

Curt and Ian both ran a mile. Curt time was 8/9 of Ian time. Who ran faster?
Leona [35]

Curt because if his time was 8/9 of Ian's time then that means he ran the mile in a fraction of Ian's time, so he finished the mile quicker. Curt ran faster.
