Use y = mx + b (slope intercept form) to calculate the equation of the line, where m represents the slop and b represents the y intercept. 

Slope is equal to the change in y over the change in x, or rise over run. 
m = change in y / change in x

The change in x is equal to the difference in the x coordinates, and the change in y is equal to the difference in y coordinates. 
m= y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

Substitute the values of x and y into the equation to find the slope. 

m = 5 - (-16) / 1 - 8
m = -3

Use slope intercept form to find b. 

Substitute the value of m into the equation. 
y = -3x + b

Substitute the value of x into the equation.
y = (-3)(8) + b
Substitute the value of y into the equation. 
-16 = (-3)(8) + b

Then solve. 
b = 8

Now that the values of m (slope) and b (y-intercept) are known, substitute them into y = mx + b to find the equation of the line. 

y = -3x + 8

Answer:

1) slope 3/2, y-intercept 7/2

2y-3x=7

2) slope 1/5, y-intercept 3

5y-x=15

3) slope 1/5, y-intercept 4/5

-x+5y=4

4) slope 5/2, y-intercept 7/2

2y=5x+7

Step by step explanation:

1) 2y-3x=7

2y=3x+7

y=3/2y+7/2

2)5y-x=15

5y=x+15

y=1/5x+3

3)-x+5y=4

5y=x+4

y=1/5x+4/5

4)2y=5x+7

y=5/2x+7/2

The equation for a circle is ​x^2 − 8x + y^2 - 2y - 8 = 0
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

To obtain this form use the method of completing the square

Given

x² - 8x + y² - 2y - 8 = 0 ( add 8 to both sides )

x² - 8x + y² - 2y = 8

add ( half the coefficient of the x/y terms )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 4)x + 16 + y² + 2(- 1)y + 1 = 8 + 16 + 1

(x - 4)² + (y - 1)² = 25 → B

Hey there!

A reciprocal might be an unfamiliar vocab word, but the concept is really quite simple.

It's just a flipped fraction! Multiplying the flipped fraction by it's reciprocal gets you one, and that's how you check your answer.

So we have:

Reciprocal of 9/10 is 10/9, because 9/10 times 10/9 = 90/90 = 1

Reciprocal of 1/11 is 11/1, because 1/11 times 11/1 = 11/11 = 1

Reciprocal of 10(remember, it's 10/1) is 1/10, because 10/1 times 1/10 = 10/10 = 1

Hope this helps!

Please help me on this helps!!!

Answer:

2= 95 degrees

3= 25 degrees

1= 60 degrees

5= 25 degrees

4= 95 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

2) Straight line is 180 degrees so

180-85=95 degrees

3) I got 25 degrees because it's a corresponding angle of X, which is parallel to 25.

1) A triangle is always 180 degrees, 95+25=120 180-120=60

5) Its another corresponding angle to 25

4) Straight line is 180 degrees 60+25=85 180-85=95

Or you could of worked out the bottom 85 and minus it from 180 which will also correspond to 4
