A line passes through the two given points. Is it vertical, horizontal, or neither?

1 answer:

6 0

To answer this question, let us find the slope using the coordinates:

(2, 1) and (3, 4)

1 - 4 / 2 - 3
-3 / -1
3

The slope is 3, so the answer is neither, since a horizontal line has a slope of 0 and the slope of a vertical line is undefined.

For their homecoming parade, the students of U-Math have created a colorful banner, 57 meters in length, that is made of two

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

$Length\ of\ the\ long\ piece=40\ meters\\\\Length\ of\ the\ short\ piece=17\ meters$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "s" the length in meters of the short piece and "l" the lenght in meters of the long piece.

Set up a system of equations:

$\left \{ {{s+l=57} \atop {s=l-23}} \right.$

Apply the Substitution Method to solve the system. Substitute the second equation into the first equation and solve for "l":

$(l-23)+l=57\\\\2l=80\\\\l=\frac{80}{2}\\\\l=40$

Susbstitute the value of "l" into the second equation in order to find the value of "s". This is:

$s=40-23\\\\s=17$

1) A business man gives N18 000,00 to his three children

pashok25 [27]

Answer: The least share is N450000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Amount shared = N18 00000

Sharing ratio = 5:4:3

Amount shared by each child :

Total ratio = (5 + 4 + 3 )= 12

First share :

(5 / 12) × 1800000 = 750000

Second share :

(4/12) × 1800000 = 600000

Third share:

(3/12) × 1800000 = 450000

The least amount of the three shares is :

N450000
