Find the value of r so the line that passes through (-5,2) and (3,r) has a slope of -1/2
soldier1979 [14.2K]

The value of r so the line that passes through (-5,2) and (3,r) has a slope of -1/2 is -2

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that line is passing through point (-5, 2) and (3, r)

Slope of the line is \frac{-1}{2}

Need to determine value of r.

Slope of a line passing through point \left(x_{1}, y_{1}\right) \text { and }\left(x_{2}, y_{2}\right)  is given by following formula:

\text { Slope } m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}  --- eqn 1

\text { In our case } x_{1}=-5, y_{1}=2, x_{2}=3, y_{2}=\mathrm{r} \text { and } m=-\frac{1}{2}

On substituting the given value in (1) we get

\begin{array}{l}{-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{r-2}{3-(-5)}} \\\\ {\text { Solving the above expression to get value of } r} \\\\ {=>-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{r-2}{3+5}} \\\\ {=>-8=\frac{r-2}{3+5}} \\\\ {=>-8=2(r-2)} \\\\ {=>-8=2 r-4} \\\\ {=>2 r=-8+4} \\\\ {=>2 r=-4} \\\\ {=>r=\frac{-4}{2}=-2}\end{array}

Hence the value of "r" is -2

The ratio of coins to notes in a bag is 3 to 8. If there are a total of 24 coins then how many notes are there? 
BaLLatris [955]
Set up a proportion 
3 coins:8 notes and then the other one 24 coins : x (unknown notes)
they have a relationship so we can set them equal to each other.
3/8=24/x cross multiply: 8 * 24 = 192
Now divide that by 3: 192/3 = 64 
So there are 64 notes in the bag

If sin(y°) = cos(x°), which of the following statements is true?
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

<u>y = w and ΔABC ~ ΔCDE</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sin(y°) = cos(x°)

So, ∠y + ∠x = 90°  ⇒(1)

And as shown at the graph:

ΔABC is aright triangle at B

So, ∠y + ∠z = 90° ⇒(2)

From (1) and (2)

<u>∴ ∠x = ∠z </u>

ΔCDE is aright triangle at D

So, ∠x + ∠w = 90° ⇒(3)

From (1) and (3)

<u>∴ ∠y = ∠w</u>

So, for the triangles ΔABC and ΔCDE

  • ∠A = ∠C  ⇒ proved by ∠y = ∠w
  • ∠B = ∠D  ⇒ Given ∠B and ∠D are right angles.
  • ∠C = ∠E  ⇒ proved by ∠x = ∠z

So, from the previous  ΔABC ~ ΔCDE by AAA postulate.

So, the answer is <u>y = w and ΔABC ~ ΔCDE</u>

It takes four steps to factor 48 – 3y 4 completely. Using complete sentences and the appropriate vocabulary, explain each of the
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

3(2 - y)(2 + y)(4 + y²)

Step-by-step explanation:

48 - 3y⁴

Take 3 common:

3(16 - y⁴)

16 is 4² and y⁴ is (y²)²

3(4² - (y²)²)

Using a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b)

3(4 - y²)(4 + y²)

Again, 4 = 2²

3(2² - y²)(4 + y²)

3(2 - y)(2 + y)(4 + y²)
