<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: B is the correct answer.

The value of y is:

                      y=\sqrt{55}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We know that when a altitude is drawn from the vertex of a right angled triangle to the hypotenuse of the triangle then the length of the altitude is the geometric mean of the length of two segments of the hypotenuse.

Here by looking at the figure we have:

The altitude is denoted by y.

and the two segments of the hypotenuse have length 5 and 11.

Hence, we have:

y=\sqrt{5\times 11}\\\\i.e.\\\\y=\sqrt{55}

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(14 + 7)/2 = 21/2= 10.5

(-2 + (-8))/2= -10/2= -5

What is the slope of (-7, 0), (-7, -6)?
Bess [88]

Answer:

A line passes (-7, 0), (-7, -6).

These two passed points have same x-component (x = -7).

=> This is the line which has equation: x = -7.

This is a vertical line (parallel with y axis) and the slope is undefined.

Hope this helps!

Slope Intercept Form And Equations From Graphs
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

1. Choice B

2.  Choice C

3.  X=-2

4.  Choice A

5. y = 5/2 x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  

   the slope is down 3 over 2     m =-3/2

point slope form

y-y1= m (x-x1)

y-y1 = -3/2 (x-x1)

Choice B


2.  (-3,-1)  (1/2,2)

slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(2--1)/(1/2--3)  = (2+1)/(1/2+3) = 3/(3.5) =  multiply top and bottom by 2

  m = 6/7

point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y--1 = 6/7 (x--3)

y+1 =6/7 (x+3)

multiply by 7

7y+7 = 6(x+3)

7y+7 = 6x+18

subtract 7y from each side

7 = 6x-7y+18

subtract 18 from each side

-11=6x-7y

Choice C


3.  x=-2

This is a vertical line, the value of x never changes


4.   (-1,2) (1,-4)

slope =(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

      = (-4-2)/(1--1) = -6/(1+1) = -6/2 = -3

point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-2 = -3(x--1)

y-2 = -3(x+1)

y-2 = -3x-3

add 2 to each side

y = -3x-1

Choice A


5.  (-2,0)  (0,5)

the y intercept is 5

slope is change in y over change in x

slope =(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)  = (0-5)/(-2-0) = -5/-2 = 5/2

slope intercept form

y= mx+b

y = 5/2 x + 5
