The slope of a horizontal line is 0.

shutvik [7]

Answer: 0

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, you would need to use the formula $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ .

$m=\frac{1-1}{-3-2} =\frac{0}{-5} =0$

The slope is 0, meaning the line is horizontal.

What is the slope intercept form?

iren2701 [21]

For this case, we find the equation of the line of the form:

$y = mx + b$

Where:

$m = \frac {y2-y1} {x2-x1} = \frac {-3-0} {0 - (- 3)} = \frac {-3} {3} = - 1$

So, we have:

$y = -x + b$

We substitute one of the points: $0 = - (- 3) + b\\0 = 3 + b\\b = -3$

Thus, the equation is:

$y = -x-3$

Now, we substitute a point belonging to the region to determine the sign.

( $(0,0)\\0? - (0) -3\\0? -3$

-3 is less than 0.

Then, the inequality is:

$y> -x-3$

As the border of the region is dotted, then it remains ">."

Answer:

$y> -x-3$

Solve the equation 4(y-3)=13

I am Lyosha [343]

Step-by-step explanation:

$4(y - 3) = 13 \\ \\ \therefore \: 4y - 4 \times 3 = 13 \\ \\ \therefore \: 4y - 12 = 13\\ \\ \therefore \: 4y = 13 + 12 \\ \\ \therefore \: 4y = 25 \\ \\ \therefore \:y = \frac{25}{4} \\ \\ \therefore \:y = 6\frac{1}{4}$

Austin is on his way home in his car. His drive is 30 miles long. He has finished five-sixths of the drive so far. How far has h

drek231 [11]

30 miles is two-thirds of x (where x is the total distance)

30 = (2/3)*x 

30*3 = 2x
90 = 2x

90/2 = x

45 = x

x = 45

The total length of his drive is 45 miles
