Answer:

slope = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Azizah got 1 for the slope of the line through 2 points (1,2) and (4,-1).

To find out slope apply slope formula

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

(1,2) is x1,y1

(4,-1) is x2,y2

slope =\frac{-1-2}{4-1}

slope =\frac{-3}{3}=-1

So the slope is -1 not 1

She made a mistake in the negative sign

-1-2 is -3. negative by positive is negative

(1,2)(4,-1)
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope = (-1 - 2) / (4 - 1) = -3/3 = -1

the slope is -1......I am not sure of the mistake.....unless she just added (-1 - 2) and got 3 instead of -3.......or when dividing -3/3....she maybe forgot about the negative sign

Problem page the sum of two numbers is 47 . the larger number is 17 more than the smaller number. what are the numbers?
user100 [1]
Smaller number = X
Larger Number = X + 17

47 = X + (X+17)
47 = 2x + 17
47 - 17 = 2x
30 = 2x
X = 15

Point G is between F and H on line FH. Use the given information solve for x and then find FG AND GH.
Viktor [21]

Answer:

X=6

FG=31

GH=22

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation: FG+GH=FH

rewrite with values

4x+7 + 5x-8 = 53

combine like terms

9x-1 = 53

add 1 to both sides

9x = 54

divide by 9

x = 6

use 6 end solve for FG and GH

FG = 4(6) + 7 = 31

GH = 5(6) - 8 = 22

Check your answers.. Do FG and GH add up to equal FH (53)?

31 + 22 = 53

I hope this made sense.
