Answer:

$\displaystyle -\frac{13}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, first you have to use the slope formula of $\displaystyle \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ .

y2= (-7)

y1=6

x2=4

x1(-6)

Solve.

$\displaystyle \frac{(-7)-6}{4-(-6)}=\frac{-13}{10}=\boxed{-\frac{13}{10}}$

Therefore, the correct answer is -13/10.

There are 25 kids in a class, and the number of boys is 2/3 of the number of girls. How many boys and how many girls are in this

Ksju [112]

25 kids in all
2xboys:3x girls

so the equation would be
2x+3x=25
solve,
5x=25
/5 /5
x=5
2x=10
3x=15

10 boys and 15 girls

If one acute angle of a right triangle measure 37 what's the measure of the other acute angle

Ghella [55]

53°

Step-by-step:

- All angles in a triangle add up to 180°.

- Since your triangle is a right angle triangle, one of the angles are 90°.

- You already know another one, 37°.

- All you have to do to find the last one is to subtract the two you already know from 180.

180 - (90+37)

= 180 - 127

= 53

The measure of the last angle is 53°.
