The slope of a line is (change in y)/(change in x), so we can plug it in to here to get (11/5-6)/(3/16-1/10). It doesn't matter which y value you subtract from, but just make sure that the number you subtract from in both the numerator and denominator is from the same point!

Read my note at the end of problem 5 in another post.
You already know this table represents an exponential function
since each y-coordinate is always the previous y-coordinate multiplied by 6.
That means b = 6, and you have
y = a(6)^x
Now we find "a". When x = 0, y = 5. That means a = 5.
The equation is
y = 5(6)^x
Answer:
Infinitely many triangles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the lengths of two sides are 8 inches and 10 inches.
Let's assume third side = x inches.
Using the Triangle Inequalities given as follows:-
1. a+b > c,
2. b+c > a,
3. c+a > b.
Using the lengths given in the problem, we can write:-
1. x+8 > 10 ⇔ x > 10-8 ⇔ x > 2.
2. x+10 > 8 ⇔ x > 8-10 ⇔ x > -2.
3. 8+10 > x ⇔ x < 18.
So, the solution set is 2 < x < 18. It means third side can take any value in interval (2, 18).
Hence, there are infinitely many triangles.
X + 9/7 = 10
- 9/7 -9/7
___________
x = 8 2/7
