Answer:

D) 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The line passes through the points (1, 7) and (-4, -8)

Here we have to use formula to find the slope.

Slope (m) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Here x1 = 1, y1 = 7, x2 = -4 and y2 = -8

Now plug in these values in the above formula, we get

slope = (-8 - 7) / (-4 - 1)

= -15/-5

slope (m) = 3

Therefore, the slope of the line is 3.

Answer: D) 3

Hope you will understand the concept.

Thank you.

Answer:

D. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a line, we can use the equation y2-y1/x2-x1=m or slope.

All we can do now is insert the values of the points into the equation.

-8-7/-4-1=m

-15/-5=m

3=m

Thus, the slope is 3.

Hope this helps!

What is the surface area of the square pyramid?
Pavel [41]
The base is a square, therefore all the sides of the base  are the same. This also means all the triangles have the  same area.

10*10 = 100 cm^2 for the base

0.5*10*12 = 60 cm^2 for each triangle

100 + 4(60) = 340 cm^2

The arch of a bridge forms the upper half of an ellipse. The arch is 6 meters above the 20-meter-wide river. Write an equation f
aksik [14]

Answer:

\frac{x^2}{36} + \frac{y^2}{100} = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

The equation of the ellipse

This is calculated as:

\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1

Where:

b =6 ---- height

a = 0.5 * 20 =10 --- width

So:

\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1

\frac{x^2}{6^2} + \frac{y^2}{10^2} = 1

\frac{x^2}{36} + \frac{y^2}{100} = 1
