Answer:

The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is the change in y with respect to x.

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

If the slope of a line is undefined it means it is a vertical line and a vertical line  can not passes through three quadrants. So, option A is incorrect.

If the slope of a line is 0 it means it is a horizontal line and a horizontal line  can not passes through three quadrants. So, option B is incorrect.

If the slope of a line is positive it means the value of y increases as x increases.

Since it is an increasing line, therefore after a certain period both x and y will positive. It means the line will passes through first quadrant. So, option C is incorrect.

If the slope of a line is negative it means the value of y decreases as x increases. It can passes through each of Quadrants II, III, and IV.

Therefore the correct option is D.

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

You can substitute the first equation into the second:

-3x+3=5x+19

Add 3x on both sides:

3=8x+19

Subtract 19 on both sides:

-16=8x

Divide 8 on both sides:

x=-2

a secant and tangent are drawn to a circle from a common exterior point. If the length is 14 inches and the length of the extern
hoa [83]

Answer:

Correct option: (3) 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the length of the tangent 'T', the length of the external segment 'E' and the length of the internal segment 'A'.

If we have a secant and a tangent to a circle, we can use the following property:

T^2 = E * (A + E)

If the tangent is 14 inches and the external segment is 4 inches, we have that:

14^2 = 4 * (A + 4)

196 = 4A + 16

4A = 180

A = 45

Correct option: (3)
