Option C:

It is  \frac{1}{3} throughout the line.

Solution:

Point on the larger shaded triangle are (0, 0) and (–6, –2).  

Point on the smaller shaded triangle are (–6, –2) and (–9, –3).

Slope of the line:

 $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Slope of the larger triangle:

Here,  x_{1}=0, y_{1}=0, x_{2}=-6, y_{2}=-2

 $m=\frac{-2-0}{-6-0}

 $m=\frac{-2}{-6}

 $m=\frac{1}{3}  

Slope of the smaller triangle:

Here,  x_{1}=-6, y_{1}=-2, x_{2}=-9, y_{2}=-3

 $m=\frac{-3-(-2)}{-9-(-6)}

 $m=\frac{-3+2}{-9+6}

 $m=\frac{-1}{-3}

 $m=\frac{1}{3}

Both slopes are equal.

It is  \frac{1}{3} throughout the line.

Hence option B is the correct answer.

What are the solutions of the equation (x-3)2 + 2(x – 3) - 8= 0? Use u substitution to solve.
astraxan [27]

Answer:

x = - 1 and x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x - 3)² + 2(x - 3) - 8 = 0

Let u = x - 3, then

u² + 2u - 8 = 0 ← solve for u

(u + 4)(u - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for u

u + 4 = 0 ⇒ u = - 4

u - 2 = 0 ⇒ u = 2

Convert back to x, that is

x - 3 = - 4 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = - 1

x - 3 = 2 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = 5

What is the direct variation equation if y varies directly with x and y = –9 when x = –45?
alekssr [168]
Direct variation equation is y = kx ; k is the constant of variation.

y = -9
x = -45

-9 = k(-45)
-9/-45 = k
1/5 = k

y = 1/5x  CHOICE A.
