Answer:

D) \displaystyle -\frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>B</em>[3, −3] and <em>A</em>[−5, 3]

\displaystyle \frac{-y_1 + y_2}{-x_1 + x_2} = m \\ \\ \frac{-3 - 3}{5 + 3} = -\frac{6}{8} = -\frac{3}{4}

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

For this case we have that by definition, the slope of a line is given by:

m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}}

Where:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1})and (x_ {2}, y_ {2})are two points through which the line passes.

According to the image we have:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (-5,3)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (3, -3)

Substituting we have:

m = \frac {-3-3} {3 - (- 5)} = \frac {-6} {3 + 5} = \frac {-6} {8} = - \frac {3} {4}

Thus, the slope of the line is:

m = - \frac {3} {4}

Answer:

m = - \frac {3} {4}

Choose the correct simplification of the expression (2ab5)3. (1 point) Question 8 options: 1) 8ab15 2) 8a3b8 3) 5a3b15 4) 8a3b15
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

4). 8a^{3}b^{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

The Given expression is that,

(2ab^{5})^{3}

On simplifying,

(2ab^{5})^{3} = (2ab^{5} )(2ab^{5}) (2ab^{5})

= (2^{3} ) * (ab^{5})^{3}

= (2×2×2) × (ab^{5} × ab^{5} × ab^{5})

= 8a^{3}b^{15}

Thus, <u>option 4</u> i.e.  8a^{3}b^{15} is the correct simplification of the given expression.
