Answer is:
The slope is negative 4
The answer to the equation is:
y=-4x+37

Explanation:
Y=Mx+B
The m in the equation is always gonna be the slope!

Your welcome

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

This looks like point-slope form, which I find personally hideous. Let's change it to slope-intercept form to ease my conscience. (remember that slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-intercept!)

y - 5 = -4(x-8)

y - 5 = -4x + 32

y = -4x + 37

It's in slope-intercept form now! And -4 looks to be our m.

<u>So the slope is -4.</u>

What is the value of tan M?
ludmilkaskok [199]
Hi there! The answer is 15/8.

The general formula for the tangent is
\tan(m) = \frac{opposite}{adjecent}

When we fill in the data from the picture, we get the following:
\tan(m) = \frac{15}{8}

2x+3y+2=0<br> 2x+y=-1<br> Want answer
ch4aika [34]

The value of the x and y are -1/4 and -1/2 if the system of equations are 2x + 3y = -2 and 2x + y = -1.

<h3>What is a linear equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

It is given that:

The two linear equations:

2x+3y+2=0

2x+y=-1

Solving by elimination method.

2x + 3y = -2

2x + y = -1

Subtract the equation first to second:

2y = -1

y = -1/2

Plug the above value in the equation second:

2x - 1/2 = -1

2x = -1 + 1/2

2x = -1/2

x = -1/4

Thus, the value of the x and y are -1/4 and -1/2 if the system of equations are 2x + 3y = -2 and 2x + y = -1.

a quadrilateral has 2 angles that measure 100 and 60 degrees the other angles have a ratio of 3:17 . what are the measures of th
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

30° , 170°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the remaining two angles be 3x & 17x. As it is a quadrilateral , the sum of all the angles of quadrilateral is 360°. So,

3x + 17x + 60 + 100 = 360

=  > 20x + 160 = 360

=  > 20x = 360 - 160 = 200

=  > x =  \frac{200}{20}  = 10

Putting the value of x , remaining angles are

(3×10 = 30°) & (17×10 = 170°)

Determine whether the geometric series 36 + 39.6 + 43.56 + ... converges or diverges, and identify the sum if it exists.
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Diverges

There is no sum.

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric series has a general formula of:

\sum ar^n

Where 'a' is the initial term, 'n' is the number of terms, and 'r' is the constant ratio. If |r| < 1 than the series converges, but if |r| > 1, than the series diverges.

In this problem, the initial term is a = 36, the ratio can be found by:

r = \frac{39.6}{36}=\frac{43.56}{39.6}\\  r=1.1

Since the ratio is r =1.1 and 1.1 > 1.0, the series diverges.

In a diverging series, it is not possible to determine the sum of infinite terms, since it would be infinite.

What is the measure of ∠LMN in kite KLMN?<br><br><br> HELP QUICKLY!!!!!!!!!!
DanielleElmas [232]

we know that

LM=MN

LK=KN

∠MNK=∠MLK

we have

∠MNK=106\°

∠LKN=99\°

so

∠MLK=106\°

The sum of the internal angles in the kite is equal to 360\°

∠MNK+∠LKN+∠MLK+∠LMN=360\°

substitute values and solve for ∠LMN

∠LMN=360\°-106\°-106\°-99\°

∠LMN=49\°

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

∠LMN=49\°
