Answer:

Option B and C are correct.

\frac{x_2-x_1}{y_2-y_1}

\frac{run}{rise} are the expression incorrect for slope

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is defined as the change in the dependent variable  relative to the change in the dependent variable

or the ratio of the horizontal changes to vertical changes between any two points on the graph of the line.

The vertical changes between any two points is rise

The horizontal changes between any two points is run.

Formula for slope is given by:

For any two points (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2)

then slope is:

\text{Slope} =\frac{rise}{run}= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

or we can write this as:

Δy = y_2-y_1

Δx = x_2-x_1

⇒\text{Slope} = \frac{\triangle y}{\triangle x}

Therefore, the expression which are incorrect for slope  are;

\frac{x_2-x_1}{y_2-y_1}

\frac{run}{rise}

Answer:

Choice B and choice C are incorrect expression for slope.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is defined as the steepness of a line. It is also called gradient.It is denoted by m.

It is ratio of change in the dependent variable and independent variable.

hence, m = Δy / Δx = y₂-y₁ / x₂-x₁

The change in dependent variable is called rise and the change in dependent variable is called run.

So,   m = rise / run

hence, choice B. and choice C. are incorrect expressions for slope.

For the information given, a line segment of 4 inches can be drawn

<h3>How to illustrate the segment?</h3>

For the 'copy', you would measure the line drawn, and duplicate it to the right, measuring it to make sure it is the exact length of the first line.

To bisect the original line segment, measure the line with a ruler or other device, and calculate 1/2 distance from one end, mark it, measure from left end to mark, make sure right section is equal in length.

Draw an angle of  90 degree and label it to avoid confusion. Now use a scale to draw a ray and label the vertex point so we can know  the point where to place compass. Use compass to draw an arc on angle. This angle will help you measure where to put the new point on our new angle.

Similarly draw the same arc  on the new ray. This is the first step in finding the new point. Then, use compass to measure the difference between the two places where the arc meets the angle on angle.

Furthermore, use the measurements from the previous step to draw another arc. This step is to help establish a point where the two arcs meet. Now draw a point where the two arcs met and drew a line through it.

A rectangular gasoline tank can hold 45.0 kg of gasoline when full. what is the depth of the tank if it is 0.450 m wide by 0.900
garri49 [273]
The answer is 0.154 m

Step 1. Calculate the volume of gasoline tank (V) using the known mass (m) and density of gasoline (D).
D = m/V
⇒   V = m/D
D = 719.7 kg/m³
m = 45.0 kg
V = 45.0 kg/719.7 kg/m³ = 0.0625 m³

Step 2. Calculate the depth of the tank (d) using the known volume (V) of gasoline and width (w) and length (l) of the tank:
V = d * w * l
0.0625 = d * 0.900 * 0.450
0.0625 = d * 0.405
d = 0.0625  / 0.405
d = 0.154 m
