Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is defined as ...

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

Given two points, (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope can be computed using ...

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

It does not matter which points you call point 1 and point 2. You just need to be consistent.

Using the point values in the order given in the problem statement, we have ...

slope = (4 -6)/(1 -5) = -2/-4

slope = 1/2

Factorise:<br> 8 x 3 + 729 +10800² + 486X.
hjlf

Answer:

(2x+9)  ^3

Step-by-step explanation:

 (((8 • (x3)) +  729) +  (22•33x2)) +  486x

 ((23x3 +  729) +  (22•33x2)) +  486x

Factoring:  8x3+108x2+486x+729  

 8x3+108x2+486x+729  is a perfect cube which means it is the cube of another polynomial  

 In our case, the cubic root of  8x3+108x2+486x+729  is  2x+9  

 Factorization is  (2x+9)3

Hope this helped

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-7, -6) and is parallel to the line x-y=7?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For two lines to be parallel their slopes must be equal. For two lines to be perpendicular their slopes must be the negative reciprocal of each other.

Step 1 Find the slope of the equation.

Put it into the slope-intercept form. y = mx + b.  

For x-y = 7, move the x to the left; therefore subtract the x from both sides. this leaves you  -y = -x + 7

Then, divide both sides by -1 to get a positive y.  -y/-1 = (-x + 7)/-1

This leaves y = x - 7  The slope(m) for this equation is m = 1

The other equation must also have a slope of 1 or m=1 for the lines to be parallel.

Use the point given to you (-7, -6) and substitute for (x, y)

The slope-intercept form y = mx + b can once again be used.

x = -7, y =-6, and slope or m = 1

Therefore,  y = mx + b substituted will be -6 = (1)(-7) + b; now, solve for b which is the y intercept

-6 = -7 + b add 7 to both sides -6 +7 = -7 + b +7 ; therefore, b = 1

Now you know the slope(m) which is equal to 1 and the y-intercept(b) which is equal to 1.

Finally, substitute the m and b in the slope-intercept form

            y = (1)x + 1 or y = x +1
