Through the points (-1,-9) and (2,6) find the equation

1 answer:

vivado [14]2 years ago

M= 6- -9 / 2- -1 = 6+9 / 2+1 = 15/3 = 5
y-6=5(x-2)
y-6=5x-10
y=5x-4

-9=5(-1)-4
-9=-5-4
-9=-9

6=5(2) -4
6=10-4
6=6

Step 1: find the slope using the formula m=y2-y1/x2-x1
Step 2: plug the slope and one point into the point-slope formula and solve to find the equation of the line in y=mx +b form.
Step 3: test both points to see if the equation works.

Mario is walking away from a motion detector at a rate of 1.5 feet per second. He started recording his distance from the motion

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial distance of Mario from motion detector = 2 ft

Speed of Mario = 1.5 ft/sec

Total distance of Mario from motion detector = 11 ft

Total distance moved by Mario while walking at the rate of 1.5 ft/sec = 11 - 2 = 9 ft

Given that:

Distance = 9 ft

Speed = 1.5 ft/sec

<em>Formula:</em>

$Distance = Speed \times Time$

$\Rightarrow 9 =1.5 \times Time\\\Rightarrow Time = \dfrac{9}{1.5}\\\Rightarrow Time = \bold{6\ sec}$

So, at <em>6 seconds</em>, Mario will be 11 ft from the motion detector.
