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.

Answer:

64

Step-by-step explanation:

Euclide's theorem states that in a right triangle, the square built of the side lenght is equivalent of the rectangle with sides hypotenuse and projection of the same side lenght. In formula, given the measures on the triangle:

60^2 = (36+x)(36) \rightarrow 3600 = 36(x+36) \rightarrow 100=x+36\\ x=64

avanturin [10]

Answer:

a) 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 25 students total in the class.

If you look at the Venn Diagram, you can see that only 5 people have only "Fb" accounts.

Therefore, the probability that the person has a “Fb” account but not a “Snap” account is 5/25 or 1/5.
