Finding the slope using two points, (5, -1) and (-8, -4)

The formula for slope is

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

In this case...

y_{2} =-4\\y_{1} =-1\\x_{2} =-8\\x_{1} =-5

^^^Plug these numbers into the formula for slope...

\frac{-4-(-1)}{-8-5}

\frac{-3}{-13}

\frac{3}{13}

^^^This is your slope

Hope this helped!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find a slope using two points is:

m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\m = ((-4)-(-1))/((-8)-(5))\\m = -3 / -13\\m = 3/13

Answer:

Make a graph

Step-by-step explanation: In order to plot points, you need to first make a graph. So you would make a graph and plot out the numbers on the line. Hopefully you know how to setup a graph and what goes on the x and y axis. So for the first one you would go left on the graph till you hit -3 and then down to -2 and then draw a point right there. For the second one you would go right to 2 and then up 4 and draw a point.

Which shows the correct substitution of the values a, b, and c from the equation –2 = –x + x2 – 4 into the quadratic formula? Qu
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

a  =  1

b =  -1

c =  -2

Step-by-step explanation:

We reorder the equation in such way that let us see the usual

ax² + bx + c = 0

Then the original quation is:

-2 = - x + x² - 4               ⇒  0 = 2 - x + x² - 4        ⇒ x² - x  - 2  = 0

Now we are able by simply inspection to identify a, b . c comparing our equation with the general equation so :

a  =  1

b =  -1

c =  -2
