How do I find the value of x so the slope of a line through (x,5) and (4,2) is 1/3?

Slope=change in y/change in x
1/3 = 5-2/x-4 (or 2-5/4-x)
1/3 = 3/x-4
then cross multiply
1(x-4) = 3(3)
x-4=9
add 4 to both sides
x=13

From the following figures , find the value of x
scoray [572]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

these are vertically opposite angles

10x+6 = 11x

so, since only one x is missing from 10x but 6 is addling we can say that x= 6

10 multiplied by 6 = 60

60+6 = 66

11 multiplied by 6 = 66

so by this we can say,

x= 6

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Coordinates (x, y)
  • Midpoint Formula: \displaystyle (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

Point (2, 9)

Point (8, 1)

<u>Step 2: Identify</u>

(2, 9) → x₁ = 2, y₁ = 9

(8, 1) → x₂ = 8, y₂ = 1

<u>Step 3: Find Midpoint</u>

Simply plug in your coordinates into the midpoint formula to find midpoint

  1. Substitute in points [Midpoint Formula]:                                                         \displaystyle (\frac{2+8}{2},\frac{9+1}{2})
  2. [Fractions] Add:                                                                                                  \displaystyle (\frac{10}{2},\frac{10}{2})
  3. [Fractions] Divide:                                                                                              \displaystyle (5,5)
