Answer:

m = -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for slope with the following equation:

<em>m </em>(slope) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Let:

(4 , -12) = (x₁ , y₁)

(-2 , 3) = (x₂ , y₂)

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

<em>m </em>= (3 - (-12))/(-2 - 4)

<em>m</em> = (3 + 12)/(-2 - 4)

<em>m </em>= (15)/(-6)

Simplify the slope:

<em>m</em> = -(15/6) = -5/2

-5/2 is your slope.

\text{Hey there!}

\bf\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}\leftarrow\text{is the slope formula}

\bf{y_2=-12}\\\bf{y_1=3}\\\bf{x_2=4}\\\bf{x_1=-2}

\dfrac{-12-3}{4-(-2)}\\\\\\\text{-12 - 3 = -15}\\\\\\\text{4 - (-2) = 6}

= \dfrac{-15}{6}

\boxed{\boxed{\bf{Answer: \dfrac{-15}{6}}}}\checkmark

\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}

Find the length of the leg x. Enter the exact value, not a decimal approximation.
kherson [118]
Answer:
x = 2√13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Pythagoras theorem:
14^2 = x^2 + 12^2
x^2 = 14^2 - 12^2
x^2 = (14 + 12)(14 - 12) = 52
x = √52
x = √4*√13
x = 2√13.
