Determine the rate of change of the following linear equation as it translates from (-5, -1) to any other point on the line.

1 answer:

4 0

The rate of change of a linear equation (first degree) is equivalent to the slope of a line. Slope is described as the vertical movement (rise) of the line over its horizontal counterpart (run). In determining the rate of change or slope (m) given 1 data point (x',y'), point-slope form is applicable. Point-slope form is: (y-y') = m (x-x'). Substitute the given point (-5,-1) in the equation. By substitution, [y-(-1)] = m [x-(-5)]. Re-arranging the equation, the rate of change or slope is, m = (y+1)/(x+5).

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles

In this problem

m∠1=m∠2+m∠3

substitute the given values

m∠1=31°+72°=103°

What is the correct answer of 1/3

serious [3.7K]

The correct answer of 1/3 is the decimal form of it which is 0.3 repeated (you can put a line on top of the 3). If not just leave it as 1/3 it is simplified as a fraction.
