a line contains the points (-3 -2) and (7,2) determine whether the slope of this line is positive or negative

1 answer:

5 0

Answer:

Positive. From those two points the line would slant upwards. Going left to right it would be going up, therefore it's a positive slope

Find the equation in standard form of the line parallel to y=-1/5x+7 and passing through the point (-10,-3)

Softa [21]

Answer:

the desired equation is y = (-1/5)x - 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope. Here that slope is -1/5.

Let's use the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line:

y = mx + b

We know this new line passes through (-10, -3). Substitute -3 for y in y = mx + b, as well as -10 for x and -1/5 for m:

-3 = (-1/5)(-10) + b and solve for b:

-3 = 2 + b. Then b = -5, and the desired equation is y = (-1/5)x - 5.

Write and solve an inequality that represents the values of x for which the area of the rectangle will be at least 35 square fee

Vinil7 [7]

Explanation:

There really is not enough information here. You have not indicated how x is related to the rectangle.Perhaps (as an alternative to the assumption I made [above]), you meant for x > 0 to be the length of one side of a square.

I have attached the answer in the picture.
