Answer:

x + y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of the line use the point slope form. Then convert to the standard from. Begin by substituting m = -1 and (-2,6).

y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y - 6 = -1(x --2)\\y - 6 = -1(x+2)\\y - 6 = -x -2\\x + y - 6 = -2\\x + y = 4

cora says she doesn't need to know the y-intercept of a line to write its equation, just its slope and some other point on the l
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The equation of line with given slope that include given points is                 3 y + x - 20 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Cora , if we know the slope and points on a line then we can write the equation of a line .

Since , The equation of line in slope-intercept form is

y = m x + c

<u>Where m is the slope of line , and if we know the points ( x , y ) which satisfy the line then constant term c can be get and the equation of line can be formed .</u>

So , From the statement said above it is clear that she is correct .

Now , Again

Given as :

Slope of a line is m = - \frac{1}{3}

That include points ( 2 , 6 )

Now from the equation of line as  y = m x + c

∴   6 =  - \frac{1}{3} ( 2 ) + c

Or, 6 =  - \frac{2}{3}  + c

So , c = 6 + \frac{2}{3}

or,  c = \frac{18 + 2}{3}

∴   c = \frac{20}{3}

So, The equation of line can be written as

 y =   - \frac{1}{3} x + \frac{20}{3}

Or, 3 y = - x + 20

I.e  3 y + x - 20 = 0

Hence The equation of line with given slope that include given points is     3 y + x - 20 = 0   Answer

Which equation represents a circle that contains the point (-5, 3) and has a center at (-2, 1)? Distance formula: vaa -02 (x - 1
natali 33 [55]

Given:

The center of the circle = (-2,1).

Circle passes through the point (-5,3).

To find:

The equation of the circle.

Solution:

Radius is the distance between the center of the circle and any point on the circle. So, radius of the circle is the distance between the points (-2,1) and (-5,3).

Distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

r=\sqrt{(-5-(-2))^2+(3-1)^2}

r=\sqrt{(-5+2)^2+(2)^2}

r=\sqrt{(-3)^2+(2)^2}

On further simplification, we get

r=\sqrt{9+4}

r=\sqrt{13}

The standard form of a circle is:

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

Where, (h,k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius of the circle.

Substitute h=-2, k=1 and r=\sqrt{13}.

(x-(-2))^2+(y-1)^2=(\sqrt{13})^2

(x+2)^2+(y-1)^2=13

Therefore, the equation of the circle is (x+2)^2+(y-1)^2=13.

A spinner has ten equal sectors labeled from 1 to 10. The spinner is spun once.
trapecia [35]

Answer:

With probability you can multiply your chances in this case.

Getting an odd number: 1/2

Getting a number greater than 4: 1/6

Therefore it is a 1/12 chance to be both odd and greater than 4
