The slope is 7/5 and the equation of the line is 5y - 7x = 0 if the points (10,14) and (35,49) form a proportional relationship.

<h3>What is the slope?</h3>

The ratio that y increase as x increases is the slope of a line. The slope of a line reflects how steep it is, but how much y increases as x increases. Anywhere on the line, the slope stays unchanged (the same).

$\rm m =\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

From the above formula, we can find the slope of the line:

m = (49-14)/(35-10)

m = 35/25

m = 7/5

The equation will be:

y = 7x/5 + c

here c is the y-intercept

Plug (10, 14) in the equation to find the value of c

14 = 7(10)/5 + c

c = 0

y = 7x/5 or

5y - 7x = 0

Thus, the slope is 7/5 and the equation of the line is 5y - 7x = 0 if the points (10,14) and (35,49) form a proportional relationship.

Given that the points (-1, 5) and (2, 1) are vertices of a rectangle with sides parallel to the axes, how much longer is the len

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Correct choice is A

Step-by-step explanation:

Two vertices of the rectangle have coordinates A(-1, 5) and B(2, 1). If rectangle sides are parallel to the axes, then two remaining vertices have coordinates C(-1,1) and D(2,5) (see attached diagram for details).

Find the length and the width:

$AC=\sqrt{(-1-(-1))^2+(5-1)^2}=4\ units,\\ \\AD=\sqrt{(2-(-1))^2+(5-5)^2}=3\ units.$
